Vegan Cheese

Vegan Cheese attempt 1
Perfect Texture! 

Cheese is something scared, it is so good. The way it melts, the way it tastes, the way it...*inset love ballad* 

Dairy is, to my great dismay, one of the things that make my body go into instant reject mode. I could do without milk, there are lots of other options...but CHEESE!!!!

Needless to say I had high expectations. 

Vegan cheese...hmm...sounds like some kind of mad science experiment.. 

I used this recipe 


Vegan Cheese attempt 1
Main ingredient, cashews soaked overnight

It was remarkably easy to make.

I didn't have to wait long for it to thicken up either. 
Vegan Cheese attempt 1
Simple recipe, superior results 

The texture was perfect. Exactly like real mozzarella...but it tastes like plain oatmeal. 

That is OK! Flavor can be added. The texture is there! What we have is a blank slate and it is exciting!


Do you know of another stellar vegan cheese recipe? Do you know how to achieve cheese flavor?
