Homemade Vegan Mozzarella Recipe
·
·
As a passionate vegan, I am constantly looking for new recipes to recreate traditional favorite dishes without animal products. Replacing cheese was one of my biggest challenges, especially because I was looking for a good and tasty alternative for quesadillas. After many experiments in the kitchen, I found the solution: vegan mozzarella made from cashews. Here I would like to share my discovery with you, explain what vegan mozzarella is, what it tastes like and show you how you can make it yourself.
What is vegan mozzarella?
Vegan mozzarella is a plant-based cheese alternative that aims to imitate the taste and texture of traditional mozzarella without resorting to animal products. This vegan mozzarella substitute is ideal for those on a vegan diet or those looking to avoid lactose.
What does vegan mozzarella taste like?
The flavor profile of vegan mozzarella can vary depending on the ingredients used. I make my mozzarella so that it has the mild and slightly sour taste of regular mozzarella. The flavor comes from the nutritional yeast, which tastes very "cheesy." I also make sure that it melts nicely when heated and develops a pleasantly creamy texture - ideal for quesadillas or pizza!
