I made this cheese today and it’s awesome. I did use roasted cashews because that’s what I had, I did the soak as well. I also substituted olive oil for the coconut oil. The flavor is perfect and it’s firm but melts to a creamy cheese sauce consistency. So excited to try more cheese recipes.

In reply to Mia Turner (Australia). You don't need to soak them as they blend up with a fair amount of liquid.

Hi Alison, should I soak the cashews or just put straight into jug with other ingreds as per your recipe?
Thanks,
Mia (Australia)

In reply to Karen. I usually spray the bowl with non-stick spray, though you can also grease it with coconut oil if you prefer. The leftover mix will set in the blender if you don't wash it super quick, but it's very easy to remove.

Do you need to grease the bowl you are putting the cheese mixture in? I guess you have to wash the blender fairly quickly too?

This is the 3rd time I’ve made this and it’s the best vegan cheese recipe ever. Had our family over from Scotland we’re in Brazil and it was a hit. Thank you for this wonderful recipe. I used the last of my agar agar so now have to source it here.

In reply to Lisa. Great! It usually starts setting pretty fast, and totally set within an hour or two.

Flavor is outstanding
How long does it take to set in the fridge?

In reply to Matilda. The bowl size is in the notes of the recipe card. I don't know about ground cashews, I haven't tried that. A stick blender is unlikely to work well enough. If your other blender doesn't make the mix totally smooth, it will still be okay for the end result.
