Pure & Healthy Cheese - 100% Raw & 100% Delicious

Online, February 10, 2011 (Newswire.com) - Cheese is a delicious food and is missed in plant-based only diet like raw food diet. But Sarahfae from Addicted To Veggies thinks differently. She came up with own unique recipe for raw cheese that tastes really good and can be done very quickly.

Sarahfe recipe:

"AtV Aged Swiss Cheeze

Step 1. Beforehand Prep:

--- You will need 1/4 c AtV Sour Cream for this recipe. It won't be the same without it!

--- 1 & 1/2 c Cashews Soaked for 6 hours (this is for the body of the cheeze)

--- You will also need TWO large square pieces of Cheesecloth!

Step 2. Making your Swiss Cheeze:

1 & 1/2 c Cashews (pre-soaked 6 hours)
1/2 c (packed) Sauerkraut - squeeze as much of the liquid from the kraut that you can (Sauerkraut is the secret ingredient here!)
1/4 AtV Sour Cream
2 tsp Apple Cider vinegar
1 & 1/2 tsp ground Mustard Seed (mustard powder)
1 tsp Lemon Juice
1/2 tsp Sea Salt
Puree all of the above in your Food Processor - you will need to stop and scrape down the sides of your food processor at least a few times during this process, don't worry though, it's completely normal. Continue to puree and scrape down the sides of your food processor until the mixture begins to move around the inside of your processor, and from there it should become a creamy paste.

Step 3. Aging your Cheeze:

Divide your cheeze mixture in HALF, rolling both into a small round flat ball (roughly 1&1/4'' thick):

Transfer and wrap both of your Cheeze rounds in your Cheezecloth like so:

Place your wrapped up Cheeze in a colander, and place the colander in a shallow bowl (this will catch any oils that may drip from the cheeze:

Cover your colander with a towel...

peekaboo!
Now comes the difficult part...
Place your cheeze in a dark cool place, like a pantry or a kitchen cupboard and wait, wait, wait...

Let your cheeze sit in your creepy dark area of choice for two whole days (48 hours total)

Before removing the cheesecloth place your cheeze into the fridge to chill for about an hour...

And there you have it folks!
Aged Swiss Cheeze of the raw vegan variety - and it is SO good!
I recommend enjoying this cheeze with sliced pear or apple, on a sandwich, with fresh veggie slices, or in a fancy salad. Either way, I don't think it will last long in your fridge, because it's so gosh darn tasty!"
