Kathy, I have mobility issues with my right hand (botched surgery!) and make a huge mess trying to whisk with my left, so whenever I make a cheese, after blending well, I pour it into my 3 cup silicon round and steam it in the Instant Pot for a half hour or so to set everything. (covered to keep condensation off the surface). It may seem soft when you first remove it, but cooling and refrigerating firm it up nicely! So much easier for me, and no burnt pot to scrub! (Electric burners are so hard to regulate!) Oh yeah, I don't use acids for the tart cheesy flavor, I just like to ferment the mix covered on the counter for 12-48 hours (depending on ambient temps, taste as you go) with various amounts of added yogurt, miso, and either the brine from fermented veggies or rejuvelac. I get a nice variety of interesting flavor variations, it's like having an edible science experiment!

Ah love it 😄😄 "everything will be the devil eventually" waaays you are so right on that and what the science is telling us each and every day , i love how you give substitutes as well...most vegan cheeses purport to use nutritional yeast but i like how you suped up the flavour with mustard ...for that extra tanginess i try the olive brine as well...thank you miss ..am yet to try oat milk , for me mostly almond and soy but you give me a prognosis and bird eye view of the outcome for oat milk

You can use pectin to substitute kappa carrageenan

I have no problem with waiting for a solid cheese recipe to 'complete'. So I just automatically refrigerate freshly made block cheese recipes overnight, no exceptions. If I want an instant cheese I will do a sauce or melt (i.e., liquid cheeses). We have to understand that solid cheeses take longer than liquid cheeses to be complete and ready to use!

This looks wonderful - my husband will love! Wondering, as I have arthritis in my hands, if hand mixer on low could be used to stir until thickened - I think recipes says 7-9 minutes? Maybe I will try

I think that could work. Let me know how it does. I wonder if you could cook it in a high speed blender but it would be beyond awful to clean if it works.

I made this and it was very thick when in the blender. I did learn to have my 🌶️ peppers ready when you start on the stove. Came out okay - delicious But mine was very thick before I put in the pot.

If you have a high-speed blender, it's best to stop blending before it starts to heat up. Else it starts the cooking proess.

I am so excited to have found this tutorial. I tried to go on the lactic acid site you suggested and was unsuccessful. How much ACV to use for the recipe in place of the other product?

You can get it on Amazon here: amzn.to/3NXb6nA But maybe 1/2 tsp ACV to start with.

Kathy TY for this video! Could this possibly be blended in a food processor instead of a blender? Often see food processing with drier ingredients and wondering what kind of consistency might come from a FP instead.

You were going to mention the substitute for lactic acid (or maybe you did and I missed it). I found the kappa carrageenan powder for not too bad a price but the lactic acid powder is way expensive, at least on Amazon Canada.

You might be able to use agar-agar instead of carrageenan to solidify the cheese, although it might need to be worked differently.

Thank you for making this! I have blood sugar issues, so I can't do tapioca starch or ground up oats, but I'm thinking of trying to create a cheese with cashews and carageenan as the base. Any idea if that combination would work? I'm curious about using beans, too, though I am looking for something meltable for pizza, so my guess is that something fatty, like cashews, would work best.

@@KathyHesterVeganRecipes your answer just triggered my mind that I made some zuchinni cheese a while back with agar agar. Yes it was sliceable and grateable but was a bit softer than what yours looked like.😊

I doubled the recipe, therefore, I doubled the starch and agar. It got so thick while blending, the blender was having a tough time. Should I still heat it? It's very thick and rubbery. Will it harden without heating it up. I guess I'm going to find out. 😁

It depends on how much it cooked in the blender. I would cook just to make sure. If you have a high speed blender and it gets hot, it will start to thicken.
