Vegan cheese recipe

Try substituting vegan cheeses in these tasty recipes. A raw, vegan version of the popular ‘Boursin’ cheese , these nut cheese has all the garlicky herby flavours of the dairy version, and is surprisingly simple to make. The entire process is spread over days, but each step takes mere minutes. It is completely worth the little bit of planning, and is immensely rewarding to know you have made this yourself.


The preparation of vegan cheese depends a lot on what kind of cheese you want to make.

For most vegan cheese recipes you need a very good high speed blender or a food processor. I love my Vitamix and I use it all the time to make dairy-free cheese. You might also need a cheese cloth or a nut milk bag. There’s no dairy in these vegan cheese recipes , but even your dairy-eating friends will be amazed by them!


A good vegan cheese seems impossible, but certain ingredients lend a cheesy flavor. One of my favorites is nutritional yeast. It tastes goo and it’s good for you.


Cashews, which are delicious just plain by the handful, create a magical texture that is reminiscent of goat cheese.

Cream cheese on bagels, parmesan on pasta, nacho cheese dip with our chips, sliced cheese on all the sandwiches, and so much more. Cheese is everywhere. How do you make vegan cheese? What are the ingredients of vegan cheese? How to make vegan cheddar cheese?


These vegan cheese recipes will not only satisfy your craving for cheese , but might also fool guests at your next get-together. They are easy to make and best of all, cruelty-free! This recipe is a reader request, and I’m so glad I gave it a try. Place the cashews in a large bowl and cover with water.


Vegan cheese has somewhat eluded me since going completely dairy-free. Cover the bowl with wrap and leave to soak overnight or for at least hrs. Making vegan cheese has never been so easy. This garlic and herbs cheese is delicious, dairy free and has no added oil. It is made of cashew, agar powder, nutritional yeast and spices.


Serve on bagels, bagel chips, crackers, or celery. My vegan cheese recipe starts by soaking cashews in hot water to soften them.

While the cashews are soaking I add the other ingredient to a food processor. I know it sounds wild and it kind of is, but each one part of this recipe adds just the right flavor or texture to make the whole cheese sing. Made this recipe and while on quarantine, went on a whole vegan cheese experience. While studying other vegan cheese making processes, I made this recipe another way.


Let me just say, this is THE BEST VEGAN CHEDDAR CHEESE RECIPE. But, here is another way to make it… instead of blending it and boiling the agar powder to pour in and blend with your mix, just go ahead and mix it all together in. Drain the pasta, then add to the cheese sauce and mix until coated. Grill for 5–minutes, or until golden.


You can have this vegan cheese as an appetizer or even a snack and serve it with tortilla chips, crudités, pita bread or whatever you want. It can also be used as a cheese sauce to make mac and cheese or any recipe that calls for a cheese sauce. While your pasta is cooking, you simply blend the creamy vegan cashew sauce in a blender until smooth. When the pasta is done, stir in the sauce and serve!


Thickness: If the cheese sauce turns out too thick, just add more coconut milk or any other plant-based milk (or water), up to cup. Vegan Parmesan after vegan Parmesan and then even more Parmesan. I had to add to the madness because when I accidentally made this version (after the invention of my vegan Cotija cheese ), I had found a winner.


There is nothing like a freshly grated Parmesan cheese and this vegan variety is no different! The food police are not welcome!
