SEASONINGS FOR VEGAN CHEESE MOZZARELLA
To season this homemade vegan mozzarella recipe I used garlic powder and salt with the aromatic flavor of olive oil and lemon juice. However, you can season this simple recipe with other great seasonings, for more inspiration check the following list.
- White miso paste.
- Onion powder.
- Nutritional yeast (for a cheesy flavor).
- Salts: sea salt and Kosher salt.
- Ground black pepper.
- Red pepper flakes.
LIQUID VEGAN MOZZARELLA INGREDIENTS
To make this perfect vegan cheese option to the regular mozzarella, I used simple ingredients that are easy to find. For example, I used all-purpose flour instead of tapioca starch (organic tapioca starch, or tapioca flour) as not always is an easy or affordable ingredient to find at the grocery store. Although using this ingredient can give a more stretchy cheese texture in comparison to the regular flour, I got really good results. Therefore, you don’t need to buy tapioca starch to just use a few spoons.
- Cashew nuts: the main star of this vegan liquid mozzarella cheese is the cashews. They need to be raw; therefore, roasted or salted cashew nuts are not suitable for this recipe. If you have a nut allergy you can replace this ingredient with sunflower seeds. Additionally, you have to soak them in hot water for at least 30 minutes.
- Oil: I used olive oil for this recipe; however, you can try other vegetable oils; such as refined coconut oil or organic sunflower oil.
- Lemon juice: if you don’t have lemon or want to replace this ingredient, you can also use apple cider vinegar, white vinegar, or rice vinegar.
- Flour: I used all-purpose flour. If you want to make a gluten-free option you can replace this ingredient with tapioca starch. Also, if you are making pizza dough, check the serving suggestions section for gluten-free pizza dough.
- Seasonings: Using garlic powder, salt, olive oil, and lemon juice turned out great for me and I love the result. As I mentioned above, you can also add other aromatic seasonings to this recipe. For example spices or dried herbs.
