...my first Artisan Vegan Cheese...

...this also counts for W.I.P. Wednesday...I think...

...so of course I used my new rejuvelac to make some cheese...

...and I chose the air dried cheddar to start...

...first you blend everything up...

...and then you let it sit out on the counter until it becomes pungent...and develops however much 'sharpness' you desire...

...then you cook it...

...with some agar and tapioca flour...

...until very thick...

...put it in an oiled non-reactive bowl...

...and refrigerate until cool...

...then run a knife around the edge...

...and invert the disk of cheese...

...with wet hands...

...rub some salt all over the outside of the cheese...

...then leave it on a cake rack on the counter to air dry...

...it may crack...that's ok...

...after a few days drying you're ready to try your cheese...

...we had ours sliced on some crackers...

...this is so good...you've got to make some...

~Have a lovely day!
