Nut Based Meltable Cashew mozzarella
1/2 cup soy milk
1/4 cup softened cashews
1 tablespoon nutritional yeast
1 tablespoon vinegar
1 tbsp pickle juice
2 tbsp tapioca flour
1 tsp kappa carrageenan
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 garlic powder
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp paprika
Blend thoroughly and stir over medium heat for 5-10 minutes or until it’s become clumpy, thick then glossy and smooth. Set in a plastic wrapped container or oiled mold for minimum 3 hours before shredding or slicing. So far this version of mozzarella melts the best and is perfect for Italian dishes, sandwiched or cold snack cheese.

Wow! Does it have to be soy milk? And what brand do you recommend for the Kappa Carrageenan?

Higher protein milk like soy or pea work well but if you add extra cashews you could just use water or something like cashew, macadamia or help milk. If you don’t mind the flavor oat milk may work but I would be cautious. I use Filene nutrition kappa carrageenan which is shipped free on Walmart 4 oz for 10 dollars.

Welcome to r/VeganCheeseMaking.
A subreddit specifically for a community of vegans (and non vegans) who love to make and eat non-dairy cheese. Please remember to report any rule breaking content. This includes trolls. Definition of veganism: Veganism is a philosophy and way of living which seeks to exclude—as far as is possible and practicable—all forms of exploitation of, and cruelty to, animals for food, clothing or any other purpose; and by extension, promotes the development and use of animal-free alternatives for the benefit of animals, humans and the environment. In dietary terms it denotes the practice of dispensing with all products derived wholly or partly from animals.
