Ingredients
- 2 cups macadamia nuts, soaked in water for 4-6 hours Ingredients
- 1 cup filtered water Ingredients
- 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar Ingredients
- 1-2 tsp dried rosemary Ingredients
- 1-2 tsp dried parsley Ingredients
- 1-2 tsp dried basil Ingredients
- 1-2 tsp garlic powder Ingredients
- 2 capsules Genuine Health x 15 billion probiotics Ingredients
- 1-2 tbsp nutritional yeast Ingredients
- Pinch sea salt or rock salt Ingredients
Instructions
- After nuts have soaked, drain water and give them a quick rinse.
- In a food processor or high power blender place nuts and water. Blend until smooth. Next add apple cider vinegar and blend some more until creamy. See my notes at the bottom.
- Add dried herbs, garlic, probiotics (open up capsules and pour probiotics into mixture), nutritional yeast and salt. Blitz again just until combined.
- Scrape out the mixture on to a cheese cloth or nutbag so it's breathable and form into a round shape. Place a cooling rack on top of a bowl. Place cheese on top of cooling rack (see my video) so it's got lots of room to breath.
- Let sit on counter for 24 to 72 hours. Or place in a warm place like the oven, with the oven OFF. Remember to put a note on your oven door so you do not forget! :)
- Your cheese is ready to enjoy when it starts to get stinky. Trust me, you'll know! Refrigerate as soon as you want it to stop culturing.
- It should last in the fridge about 2 weeks.
