      Ty for these! Just today I was noticing there’s hardly any nutrional value in vegan Shredded Mexican Cheese since I needed it for my vegan Burrito. I also noticed there was hardly any nutrional value in the vegan sour cream I added to it. I’ll have to make homemade from now on. 🫶🏻

    Yes! I cannot tell you how happy I am to see this rn 😂. For context - I’m coming back from a work conference where there were exactly zero vegan meal options but mysteriously they had vegan pastries 😂 dafuq?! It was so embarrassing getting questions and sad faces all day from colleagues while eating simple veggie plates and potatoes, and the protein shakes I brought from home.
    Anyway - coming back and seeing such a *joyful* DIY vegan cheese video?! With stuff I have in my fridge?! 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾 All I want now is a huge plate of recovery pasta with that gorgeous ricotta!

  • @Unknown2Yoo
    @Unknown2Yoo Před 5 měsíci

    I've figured out a good mozzarella and cheddar cheese since I have a milk allergy. I say "figured out" because I have potato (and thus tapioca) and rice allergies, so I had to figure some work arounds and just accept nothing will melt because there's no stretchy starch like tapioca, rice, or potato. My stars are pickle brine and sweet potato for my cheddar and infused olive oil and sauerkraut brine for my mozzarella. I've really missed feta and parmesan, so I'm excited these recipes don't use those allergens. I'm thinking of adding a little arrowroot start slurry and cooking the parmesan mixture so it'll set up a little better and won't get as soft as quickly.

    I'm a natural vegan at heart, I care about the animals and planet. When I was 4 years old I was feed bacon and was like wtf is this crap?! I've never cared for any kind of animal meat, pork (I hate pork of any kind), beef, fish, seafood, turkey, chicken. I never liked it any of it. But I made a vegan cheese last night with peanuts by the CZcams channel Chef Jana. Boy thought I wasn't gonna like it bc of the peanuts being overwhelming flavor. But this is my favorite vegan cheese so far out of the 2 vegan cheeses I've made so far in the last month.

    • @PlantifullyBased
      @PlantifullyBased  Před 5 měsíci

      Hi I’m sorry that happened! You need enough water to cover it about an inch. Everyone stoves runs super differently so I had to keep mine on a high heat to keep it going, but maybe your stove runs hotter, so bring it closer to a medium heat and just keep an eye on it. And if you find it is losing water quickly, you can always add more water in or drop the heat.

      Mozzarella
      1/2 C of vegan yogurt (I use my own or coconut-based like Cocoyo)
      1/2 C cashews
      6 tbsp starch (arrowroot or corn)
      1 tsp of lemon juice
      2 tbsp of sauerkraut brine
      1 tbsp of nutritional yeast
      3/4 tsp of salt
      5 tbsp of herb infused olive oil (since I use this cheese for pizza, mine is Italian herb based)
      If you want to be nut free, just do a full cup of yogurt and skep the following cashew step. Note it will be much softer without the nuts.
      Soak cashews overnight or boil for 15 minutes, then drain, place in a high speed blender with all the other ingredients and blend until smooth, usually takes a full minute or two.
      Pour mixture into a non-stick pan then turn on medium. Don't preheat the pan because it can burn. After turning on the heat begin stirring and continue stirring until it's sticky. Remove from heat and transfer to a glass container and store in the fridge for a couple weeks. I usually cut up half and freeze it and use the rest in the fridge in the week.
      Vegan Cheddar
      I use basically the same recipe as Sauce Stache here: czcams.com/video/lsn-pcUUj2g/video.html&pp=ygUUc2F1Y2Ugc3RhY2hlIHBvdGF0b2U%3D
      However, I replace the white potato with sweet potato, arrowroot starch instead of corn, and lemon juice and pickle brine instead of lactic acid.@@chefbee451
