The Secret to Making a Sharp, Tangy, and Creamy Vegan Cheese
This nut cheese recipe from Lauren Montgomery, a chef at Double Zero in New York City and founder of health coaching business Montys NYC, is easy to whip up and imparts the same satisfying, umami flavors as real cheese. Simply soak cashews and macadamia nuts overnight and then blend them with nutritional yeast, rosemary, lemon juice, truffle oil, miso, and salt. “Soaking the nuts makes them easier to blend and breaks down enzymes so your body can absorb the nutrients more readily,” says Montgomery.
