Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Cranberry Walnut Vegan Cheese.
Step 1
Begin by placing the chopped cashews in a bowl and covering them with cold water.
Step 2
Allow the cashews to soak for four hours, then drain them thoroughly.
Step 3
In a food processor, blend the soaked cashews with nutritional yeast, apple cider vinegar, miso paste, and salt until the mixture reaches a smooth and creamy consistency.
Step 4
Taste the blend and adjust the seasoning to your preference.
Step 5
Next, take a piece of parchment paper and lightly grease it with vegetable oil.
Step 6
Spoon the cashew mixture onto the parchment and shape it into a log, twisting the ends of the paper to secure it.
Step 7
Refrigerate the log for at least two hours, allowing it to firm up.
Step 8
While the cheese log chills, prepare a delightful coating by mixing chopped walnuts, hazelnuts, dried cranberries, and fresh rosemary on a plate.
Step 9
Once the cheese log is firm, unwrap it from the parchment paper and roll it in the nut and herb mixture, ensuring it is well coated.

This delicious cashew cheese log is now ready to impress at your next gathering!.
