This delicious dairy-free cheese is easy to make and melts beautifully, offering a rich and satisfying texture. Ideal for adding a plant-based touch to your favorite dishes, it's a versatile and tasty alternative to traditional mozzarella.

Instructions

  1. Drain the soaked cashews and rinse them under fresh water.
  2. In a high-speed blender, combine the soaked cashews, 700 milliliters of water, 6 tablespoons of tapioca starch, 2 tablespoons of nutritional yeast, 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, 1 teaspoon of apple cider vinegar, and 2 teaspoons of salt. Blend until the mixture is completely smooth.
  3. Pour the cashew mixture into a saucepan.
  4. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and becomes stretchy. This will take about 5-7 minutes. The mixture will change from a liquid to a thick, gooey, stretchy consistency.
  5. Your homemade vegan mozzarella is ready to be used in your favorite dishes. Enjoy!
