Delicious Vegan Parmesan Recipe for Plant-Based Cooking

Ingredients

Servings:
4
  • 1 cup raw cashews (soaked for 2-4 hours for creamier texture)
  • 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast (adds cheesy flavor)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)

Instructions

5 steps

  1. Prepare Cashews

    Soak the raw cashews in water for 2 to 4 hours.

    This step ensures a creamier texture.
  2. Drain and Rinse

    After soaking, drain and rinse the cashews under cold water.

    This helps remove any bitterness.
  3. Blend Ingredients

    In a blender, combine soaked cashews, nutritional yeast, garlic powder, and salt.

    Blend until smooth and creamy.
  4. Adjust Consistency

    If too thick, add a small amount of water to reach desired consistency.

    Do this gradually to avoid making it too watery.
  5. Store

    Transfer the vegan parmesan to an airtight container.

    It can be stored in the fridge for up to a week.
