Almond nut cheese
After making a vegan Muenster cheese from The Cheesy Vegan book, I made this variation using almonds instead.It ended delicious for my taste but please feel free to modify any ingredients.
Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 cup of water
- 1 TB agar powder
- 1 cup raw almonds soaked for 8 hours or overnight
- 1 TB canola oil or tahini
- 1 tsp organic miso
- 1 TB nutritional yeast flakes
- 1 tsp dried mustard
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
Directions:
In a small saucepan at medium-low temperature combine water and agar.
In
the meantime, combine all the rest of the ingredients in a high speed
blender or food processor. Using a food processor will take more time
and liquid to process. Add a little water if necessary. Process until
smooth.
After 5-10 minutes the mixture will become thick and creamy. Quickly pour the mixture into a cheese mold.
Place the cheese mold into the fridge for 30 minutes or until set.
Enjoy!
