Ingredients
- 1/2 cup (2 ½oz/71g) raw cashew, soaked in boiling water for at least 30 minutes
- 1 teaspoon dry herbs of your choice
- 1/4 cup (1oz/28g) tapioca starch
- 1/2 teaspoon white or black pepper
- 1/4 cup (2oz/57g) coconut oil, solid
- 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 3-5 tablespoons *agar agar, (depending on how firm you want it)
- 1 tablespoon nutritional yeast
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice, freshly squeezed
- 2-3 teaspoons salt
- 1 1/2 cup (12floz/340ml) water, boiling
Notes
- *If you would like to use carrageenan instead of agar agar you can, just use 1 1/2 tablespoons. You must use one of these options as this is what will hold the cheese together and create the gooey melting texture.
