Make Your Own Vegan Cheese - It Melts & Slices!

[@ellieb.37]

I've found that if you do everything but skip the agar agar and switch miso for nutritional yeast (the amount recommended in the video) then it turns into a really nice creamy cheesy pasta sauce, similar to Alfredo. The original recipe for firmer cheese is wonderful too. I've tried both and it's fantastic and less expensive than pre-made vegan cheese.

[@luv2travel2000]

Thanks for that tip. I love Alfredo sauce. Also, I always have nutritional yeast at home, so I would prefer to use that instead of the miso when I make the cheese. 🧀😊👍

[@rt200923]

My daughter recommended Fed Up and Pharmacy Thugs. so after watching those 2 I watched Forks over Knives and several other documentary's not only did it scar me but it made me realize that I did not want to be sick and that was what the processed food were doing to me. I was always feeling bad taking pills to help with pain and other issues. Now I am almost 1 month vegan old and I feel wonderful. I thought it would be really hard but its not , its actually easier than going on a diet.. Thank you for these great recipes..

[@cookingwithplants]

Well done :-) And so glad you like my recipes x

[@cookingwithplants]

If you not want to use soy milk just use any non-dairy milk of that you like eg. oat milk, rice milk, almond milk etc

[@neptuniumforest]

oh my your eye color is beautiful!!

[@cookingwithplants]

Thank you :-)

[@mariposa.jandre]

CookingWithPlants Glad you could use other milks because I do not use soy and I would like to make vegan cheeses. Soy is an endocrine disruptor and I would never recommend using soy for cooking.

[@petedako]

where can i find those molds?

[@cookingwithplants]

Pete Dako Hi Pete, any shop that sells cake tins should have them. They are just mini spring form cake tins :-) I think I bought mine at K-Mart or Target (if you are in Australia). Or try online.

[@TrishasMusic]

I made this today with all almond meal instead of cashews, strained it to get rid of the pulp, and used 2 tbs nutritional yeast. Melts absolutely perfectly and even turns a golden brown. Amazing and SO much better (and cheaper) than dairy cheese!

In Australia Nutritional Yeast is called Savory Yeast Flakes and can be purchased from Go Vita health food stores.

[@cozzyscreatures9198]

+Kate Munro They have have started selling in some supermarkets too :)

[@helenellsworth9556]

It's also called nutritional yeast, it's available in Woolworths 🙄

[@aphantomrosevegan1391]

Yum-my!! I'd definitely like to try. Just throwing this out there: I live on a very tight budget, under the poverty line, and I use nutritional yeast. It's such a healthy, and tasty addition. I don't spend much on splurge items, so I can afford it. It's so worth it! 👍💚

Hi again, I'm back to say I just made this cheese and it's utterly fabulous. I followed your recipe exactly, except I subbed canola oil (I didn't have any grapeseed oil) and I added 1 level tablespoon of nutritional yeast flakes. WOW, my cheese tasted very similar to Kraft cheddar cheese. Your recipe made a 650gram block of cheese and I can't wait to make another batch: next time I'll add chives and garlic :) I'm so impressed with this recipe, can't wait to make and eat more :) Also, it's important to note keep the cheese uncovered in the fridge while it cools and only when cool to put it in a sealed container (this is to stop condensation forming under a lid/cling film while it cools and thus making the cheese wet and slimy). I note that you mentioned this in your soy-free cheese video but not this one. Lucky I'm addicted to watching all your videos :) Thank you so much for a really wonderful vegan cheese recipe!!

[@cookingwithplants]

Thanks so much for letting me know :-) I'm so glad you tried and like it x

[@skysthelimitforeveryoung3437]

Hi. Do you know what kind of blender she uses? What kind did you use? I'm shopping around and am concentrating on the main function to do this recipe. Thanks!

[@ilanesh]

maybe then do not eat anything if everything is toxic for you. Everybody can eat what he wants and is good for him, and stop telling others not to eat this and not to eat that. You are not alone in this world.!

[@punkrocksmidge]

Jasmyne Amy Fun fact: It's a myth that canola oil is toxic, and Canada is not the only country that manufactures it (although its generally called by another name in other countries). One single protein gene in canola is genetically modified and can therefore not be produced by many countries (mainly European countries) due to laws against the use of GMOs. The finished oil from Canadian manufacturers removes the genetically modified protein anyway, so the resulting product is no different from European rapeseed/rape oil and certainly no more toxic.

Would like to see how it looks/behaves when melting in cooked dishes (or do you have a video about that?)

[@xymonau2468]

Because it has agar agar, it would melt.

[@DigitalNomadPhysicians]

It melts sooooo good :) melts in your mouth when the pizza is still warm. I actually took my batch and reheated it and it melted right back to normal and added the yeast and a little more miso paste as you suggested for that sharp flavor. Oooooh yum. Thanks again.

[@evangelxie7741]

I made this with almonds instead of cashews the other day and it turned out brilliant too!! A little bit grainier, but flavor wise remained the same. Thank you so much for this recipe. :D can't wait to try your other recipes out

the texture is amazing. not as dense as other harder cheeses but the flavor is very interesting, I just took it out of the molds. I didn't use the nutritional yeast (totally forgot). I went a little light on the salt because my veggie stock powder was unsalted. I'm gonna try melting it on a pizza next :) Can't wait to try the other vegan cheese you have on your website. Oh and my blender was super weak so it came out a little less smooth.

[@TheOnlyRemyD]

M Ashori Not sure if you know this but you can soak the cashew nuts to help with the blended consistency.

The little bit i managed to taste before I left it to set was so delicious- I'll keep you updated on how it goes and whether it melts on the pizza I have planned for tonight! I'm also paleo (no soy for me!), so I used: -almond milk instead of soy milk -macadamia oil instead of grape seed oil -and some tahini with a little dijon mustard instead of miso paste Thanks for the great video, you are a lifesaver!

[@cookingwithplants]

Sophie Tapscott Awesome :-) Enjoy!!!

[@soapytap]

Hi *****, I'm assuming you're talking about the Paleo lifestyle? I haven't ever heard of that figure before, it seems like an uncomfortable amount of fiber to me! Perhaps your doctor was misinformed with that figure as I've been trying to find some info on it, but I've seen recommended figures of about 25g-38g of fiber per day, not 100! I don't see why eating this way would result in a need for any more fiber than anyone else, as it is just eating healthy, nourishing foods. For me, this way of eating is not a diet, but a healthy lifestyle. My family and I have never felt or looked better! I think you will find that in eating this particular way, you will actually consume much more fibre than you previously did (not 100g, but more than the average person) because you can now enjoy much more vegetables, nuts, coconut and fruit. I recommend doing some research if you're interested, here's some great links: -robbwolf.com/what-is-the-paleo-diet/ -www.thepaleoway.com/ -nomnompaleo.com/paleo101 -This one has lots of articles that you can browse through: thepaleodiet.com/ If you want to know more I'm happy to send you some more info, or have a chat about it! Is your doctor against this way of healthy eating?

[@dawnlouiseh]

Sophie Tapscott thanks for writing your substitutions. I found I didn't like the strong salt taste in miso. such a shame as seems to be include in a lot of recipes here. or maybe I can find a low salt one.

[@rouma86]

Thanks so much for this great recipe!! Made a melting grilled cheese sandwich with it and it tastes AMAZING, and it did melt and sizzled!!! Added tomatoes to the sandwich and even my meat-eating brother says it tastes like pizza. It was very easy to make, so will be making this a lot!!!

hey has anyone tried this? how did it taste? I want to try this, vegan cheese is so expensive wish me luck convincing my mom to buy all these ingredients though :P

[@divxxx]

+Lily Fawn I did. You definitely need to try it, follow the recipe strictly otherwise you'll not get a firm consistency, but you can change the ingredients as you like, for example i did not put the miso paste (shame!) but I added more spices. You absolutely need to cook it long enough to thicken, or you'll get just a delicious spreadable cheese. And I am not vegan, so mine is absolutely an external point of view on the final result, I'm not saying it is good because I have to, it really is.

[@StarGazer3261997]

+PoIsOnDiVx thank you! I'm glad it's good, I will have to try it thanks ❤

[@airyfairycelt]

I found that a break from their cheese, then on to NOOCH (nutritional yeast, yummy!) and finally to make cheese and I am perfectly satisfied and more. I hear some of the new ones are indistinguishable from the other kind, some are horrifically expensive. I can only get one in rural Ireland and luckily it is both quite cheap and tasty! Anybody looking try skibbereen and dunmanway!

[@sheilastrachan]

Thank you! I made this yesterday and it really worked. Next time I would add less salt because the miso is already salty but that's a question of taste. I had to learn how to make soya milk first and now I'm learning how to use the okara to make another cheese...so it is a steep learning curve! Next time will be much easier. It is definitely worth the effort. Thanks again.

[@premasru]

How did you make okara cheese? I have made tofu from scratch several times but couldn't use up the okara and had to throw it okara away.

[@sheilastrachan]

@@premasru Hi! I am sure I found the recipe in You Tube originally so do hunt! "What to do with okara"...or something like that. It is important to cook it first: 20 minutes in boiling water. Then drain it again. Then add olive oil, salt and herbs according to your taste. It makes a kind of cottage cheese. This time I am experimenting with fermenting it first. That way it will have much more taste and be really good for my gut flora!! Good luck!

I learned otherwise and decided to respect my instincts on diet - but then how to substitute? One very enlightening video pointed out "it's not the meat, it's the spices". I've found this to be so true! A plain piece of boiled hamburger or chicken would be unpleasant without seasonings, and the same seasonings can play into vegan meat substitutes. I've found ways to create BBQ, meatloaf, chicken, ground hamburger in vegan form. If one recipe doesn't turn out as I want, I try another or tweak it. The oddest thing that resulted after several months of not eating meat, when I did eat a chicken sandwich to not-hurt a friend's feelings and again a year later when a restaurant mixed beef with veggies, I got a stomach ache for about 24 hours! Instead of giving anything up, I simply found ways to create it vegan. Some junk food is vegan, including a variety of cookies; helps me not support the meat and dairy industry with my dollars. Respect yourself on this, and have fun choosing what's right for you!

how can I avoid stirring for 8 minutes

[@t4health527]

Like that this is nutritional yeast free! As I'm allergic. Looks easy!

[@cookingwithplants]

TallythePlantEater Glad you like it :-) I keep all of my recipes easy - and super tasty!!!

+CookingWithPlants yaaaay . No yeast! I don't care for the taste of it.

[@DeadCityTV]

+CookingWithPlants perfect!! thank you very much :)

[@PourTehSugar]

+CookingWithPlants Hi, I'm going vegan from having been a vegetarian for 11 years, so I'm really freaking out about cheese. This will be a great help, thanks! I have two questions: 1. Can I store this in the freezer, so I won't have to make it every week? 2. Is it also possible to make something resembling soft goat cheese? Thanks so much!

[@cookingwithplants]

Evelien Sinke 1. Yes it will freeze :-) 2. Here is a great range of my vegan cheese recipes: cookingwithplants.com/vegan-cheese/

+Gisa N. Glad you like it :-)

[@ADDICT004]

Wow I wish I found your channel earlier :) You're awesome !!!

[@cookingwithplants]

Thanks

[@mangusbrenda]

Sounds like a good recipe, ill have to give it a try. I usually add nutritional yeast when I make my vegan cheeses, it really adds a cheesy taste.

[@cookingwithplants]

I usually do also, as I mentioned in the end of this video it is an optional extra ingredient as some people might not be able to get this where they live. It definitely adds an extra layer of cheesy flavor that tastes amazing :-) Also a great B12 boost!

[@VFella]

AAhh, Agar powder!!! I swear by this stuff. Mailing the video straight to my wife.

[@pauladalcinmartins7421]

OMG I love your reaction when you eat the cheese by the end of the video!! It must be really good! I will give it a try!

[@cookingwithplants]

+Paula Dalcin Martins lol Thanks, yes it was super tasty :-)

[@james_bam11]

Wish u were my mom

[@escreenplay]

Can't wait to make assorted batches. Great recipe and suggestions. Thanks.

[@christinestreit9535]

So I tried another batch, and this time I only added a teaspoon of miso (the one I have is practically black. Does the colour indicate how strong the flavour of it is? (First time using miso paste)). I also added just a tablespoon of nutritional yeast. I made pizza, with spinach and olives and this cheese.... And oh my goodness, it was flipping amazing. Just super delicious! Thanks so much for sharing!!!

[@cookingwithplants]

Christine Streit Awesome! Yes, the black one tastes weird to me too. Quite intense and not the smooth salty taste of white miso. Glad you found a better one :-)

[@AKAAlia123]

Thanks so much for this recipe! I can't eat kappa or coconut oil which most cheeze recipes have. Can't wait to try this one!

[@cookingwithplants]

Enjoy!

[@NormyTres]

Nutritional yeast is cheap here in the UK and I LOVE it! Excited to try this recipe :)

[@IamwhatGodmade]

[@esztellakaskoto8352]

I just made this recipe and now I am waiting to try my cheese. I have been making only half of the ingredients because I have had some errors with making cheese before 😊. But after licking of my spoon I have had known that it was a mistake 😅 it tasted delicious already

[@Pattythomas5]

I just found your channel yesterday and I cannot wait to try your recipes! Thank you so much!

[@shinebright048]

[@cookingwithplants]

[@hailevthomas]

wow this was awesome and very inspiring. I am definitely going to give this a try! Thank you for offering this lesson!

[@cookingwithplants]

Enjoy!!

[@CookingLessonsforDad]

This cheese looks so delicious! Does this cheese start to brown and bubble like regular cheese when you put it on pizza?

[@cookingwithplants]

Cooking Lessons for Dad If you grate it over it will melt and go gooey, but not full on bubbly like traditional store bought cheese.

[@CookingLessonsforDad]

Thanks. It's deliciousness is most important anyways!

[@schikanierdrache]

wonderful recipe, this will be my favorite cheese ...greetings from Germany and thank you so much ;)

[@cookingwithplants]

Steffo.G Glad you like it :-) Try my almond one too... it's my favourite :-)

[@dauntiekay2768]
