PIMIENTO CHEESE
Source of Recipe
Country Life Vegetarian Cookbook
List of Ingredients
1 cup water
3/4 cup cashew nuts or sunflower seeds
2 Tbs sesame seeds or 1 Tbs tahini
1 Tsp salt
3 Tbs Nutritional Yeast flakes
2 tsp onion powder
1/8 tsp garlic powder
1/8 tsp dill seed (optional)
1/2 cup pimentos (or red peppers)
2 Tbs lemon juice (or to taste)
Recipe
Blend until smooth. I think this cheese is superior if you use the cashew nuts, although we usually use the sunflower seeds as they are cheaper. It's still good. If it needs to be thicker, just add some rolled oats or quick oats when blending. A very delicious cheese to use in pizzas and lasagna etc.
NOTE: N.B. Nutritional Yeast which is used in most of these cheese recipes is also called Food Yeast or Savoury Yeast. It is not Brewers Yeast. It can be purchased at most Health shops
