Recipe Card

ingredients

  • 1 cup vegan yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon white vine vinegar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
  • 1 tablespoon Miso (soy or chickpea)
  • 1/4 cup tapioca starch

Method

  • Step 1

    Measure all ingredients and combine until a smooth mixture forms. You can do this by hand with a whisk or in a blender.

  • Step 2

    Heat the mixture in a pot over medium heat for 3-5 minutes, stirring often after minute 2.

  • Step 3

    After 3-5 minutes on the stovetop, the mixture will begin to thicken along the bottom & sides of the pan, keep stirring for another 1-2 minutes.

  • Step 4

    The vegan cheese mixture will never turn into a solid ball, it will become one mass with a very sticky nature.

  • Step 5

    We recommend freezing and grating this, then storing in the freezer to use on all the vegan cheese recipes you can dream up! You can use this directly as-is off the stovetop, simply spoon and drop/glop the cheese onto pizza or nachos and bake!

  • Step 6

    NOTES ** We recommend making a double batch of this– once you’ve tried it and know you love it– and keeping it on hand in the freezer! In a sealed container it can last up to 3 months! ** Play with the flavors! Add spices or seasonings, fresh herbs, a dash of mustard or a sprinkle of liquid smoke to change up the end result!
