I recently saw a video of @MerleONeal trying the potato cheese from @HalleBurns and I knew I had to try it, but after watching I spotted a few things that I figured I would change anyways so here it is, same as normal, me taking a very simple and probably great recipe and making it more complicated with more ingredients, but ending up with something in the end that tastes a little more like the thing I want it to, real cheese.
This is a vegan sharp cheddar cheese replacement that you are going to want to try... if you have all the ingredients haha
P.S. I lost my voice when I filmed and edited this video... so its going to be a fun one to listen to audibly haha

Thank you for sharing! I was wondering ❤ i used it for a couple months. I love the old school simple banana or applesauce oatmeal cookies. Its the top way I like to have oats.
I grew up in Switzerland eating dairy cheese . Last visit back home I made a vegan fondue primarily made of potatoes with a little cooked rice and a few carrots,I mixed in a home made cashew cream to add fatty richness ,nootch and fresh garlic, dry white wine, nutmeg at the end. The rest of the family was having dairy cheese fondu, but was getting in my plant based pot to the point of me having to start raising my voice😂. True story. Potatoes make the best plant based cheese.

If you use an ice cube instead of water for the steam to melt the cheese, you reduce the risk/extent of bread sogging from the water in the pan.

I’ve been making a similar plant based cheese for years but I’m excited to try this one. One trick I’ve learned is that sharp cheddar has a slight bitter flavor profile and a great way to achieve that in vegan cheese is by adding just a few drops of bitters from your bar. It adds just the right complexity to give that real cheese taste. Thanks for the recipe!

@@naomimccowen2720I was thinking that same thing. Or smoked paprika which I love.
I just made this - with a handheld immersion blender! The key is to get immediately into the cheesing(...) process as soon as the potatoes are out of the water so the starches don't have a chance to bind yet. I went the shorter, simplified way and diced the potatoes to boil instead of steaming it whole. I also used a coconut oil based plant butter instead of olive oil for the flavor and texture (based that on your butter cheese recipe). I think the paprika brings out the earthy potato flavor, but that diminishes a bit once the concoction is cooked. I think next time I'll reduce the amount of paprika by half and add a few drops of coloring plus liquid smoke for the flavor (smoked cheddar is awesome). All in all, a great recipe! This is the one Emmy should've followed in her last video. Tsk.
The brine from jarred green olives is a good substitute for pure lactic acid, pickle juice for a dilly cheese maybe, never would work for sharp cheeses. I usually use a Tbsp plus a tad of cider vinegar (instead of lemon juice as it is much sharper), blend, and add more brine/ vinegar if it needs more tang. Miso on its own is usually not tangy enough, but is salty and has good umami, but combined with olive brine and or vinegar it adds good depth. When using any of these, I adjust the water accordingly and hold off adding salt until after blending, as their sodium content varies. Also use a neutral oil instead of olive oil, as the brine will amp up the flavor.
Honestly kind of prefer your more casual delivery here since you didn't want to strain your voice, made for a pleasant watch, thank you!
Super cool! I love your videos it's like science class with food lol. Seriously though I hope you feel better soon.

Thank you for the recipe. I know about this cheese since probably more than 50 years ago. They used to sell it in a waxed cylinder shape. If this one have the same taste as the vintage one i am talking about, it might taste actually a lot better that some commercial cheddar cheeses from the supermarket. You can also roll it in cheese cloth and wax it, then age it a little bit. It will accentuate the cheddar flavor, as well as the other tones, and it will produce a little more sofisticate flavor. This cheese works fine with almost everything! I am going to try this recipe. Thanks again. Cheers!
You made it look so good in that grilled cheese omg
This is so simple and cool! I have been out of the vegan cooking world and I swear you guys are so unique and diverse it's amazing.
I will definitely try this! After trying some local veg cheese i got super addicted since it was way better than the store brands
A little agave syrup will knock out the noticeable sour sensory completely. I do it all the time when I mess up at my job with too much vinegar, white wines or salt in a recipe. Nobody knows but they do wonder when they see agave syrup out sometimes w me😂. Agave is the best.

Instant potato flakes worked. I used 1 1/3c flakes to 2c boiling water. All the same spices except 3T nutritional yeast. Next time I will increase flavorings by 50% as it was on the mild side. Maybe add yellow mustard. I used 1/4t 88% lactic acid and it was good for my tastes. The solution probably packs more punch just because the packing of the crystals in the measuring spoon has a fair amount of air. It could be drier so either lay slices in the fridge or use less water. I used an immersion blender and didn't want to overheat the motor. I'll probably add another tablespoon of oil as well. Thanks so much for sharing this, I'll make it often.
Fantastic job on this! From your reaction I’ll probably try it with a bit less lactic acid. Also, you’re so right! The Batman MSG voice is even more dark and hilarious than usual

I recently made a potato cheese. It had almost all your ingredients plus aquafaba. Don’t know what the aquafaba does but it was delicious. 😊 Also, I think the trick to making any potato cheese is for the potato to be hot. Because once carbs get cooled the starch becomes resistant.

Where I live, Argentina, 10 years ago, potato cheese was a big deal for vegans. We have a particular brand of powdered nutritional yeast that has a cheesy flavor so we would add a ton of that to a blender along with a boiled potato, neutral oil, salt, lemon juice and the potato water. I haven't had it in a while but I remember it being sooo good.

After watching and trying out your cheese recipe with chickpeas and coconut milk, I was curious to see the potatoe version. Wanted to ask if the MSG is neccessary. Normally I try to avoid "Glutamat" because it always causes some serious flatulences and I know other people suffering from that too. As far as I know, it is only for increasing flavour - right?
I just found your channel. My question is will this work if I double boil the potatoes? I am a CKD patient and I watch out for potassium, sodium etc. I am also new at eating vegan and searching for channels to follow and get educated. I would love an answer.
The cheese looks great and congrats to your health.
