Gather the ingredients and equipment needed
To make delicious and easy vegan cheese at home, you will need ingredients such as cashews, nutritional yeast, lemon juice, garlic powder, and agar agar. Additionally, you will need a blender, a saucepan, and cheese molds.
Prepare the base for the vegan cheese
Start by soaking the cashews in water for a few hours or overnight. Then, drain and rinse the cashews before blending them with water to create a smooth cashew cream.
Add flavorings and seasonings
Once the cashew cream is ready, add nutritional yeast, lemon juice, garlic powder, and any other desired seasonings to enhance the flavor of the vegan cheese.
Blend and mix the ingredients
Blend all the ingredients together until they form a smooth and creamy mixture. Adjust the seasonings to taste, if necessary.
Set and chill the vegan cheese
Transfer the mixture to a saucepan and heat it over medium heat while stirring in agar agar. Once the mixture thickens, pour it into cheese molds and refrigerate until it sets. After chilling, the vegan cheese is ready to be enjoyed!
