To be honest, raw cheese is completely different from real cheese. Well, if only a little and if cooked using fermentation. But this dish, unique in taste, fits very well in the diet of any raw food-eating dishman.
Pick your recipe
The basis for raw cheese is always two parts of peeled nuts / seeds, 1 / 2-1 part of water and salt. All other ingredients only give it a special taste.
To prepare cheese, cheese, the juice of half a lemon, a couple of cloves of garlic, a little dill and a teaspoon of honey are added to the base. For spicy hot cheese, pods of cayenne pepper, dill, half a head of onion, a tablespoon of olive oil are used. The same ingredients are added to the fermented cheese in different combinations, but the cheese itself takes a little longer to cook. The reason for this is the fermentation process, which takes half a day.
Cooking process
Soak the nuts / seeds overnight, then peel them. We pour it into the blender bowl and begin to grind until smooth, periodically scraping the adhered pieces from the walls with a spoon. If the mass falls apart, then add water to a teaspoon and continue to grind.
If we decide to make fermented cheese, then transfer the resulting mass to a gauze bag and hang over the sink for 12 hours.
Next, add salt, finely chopped seasonings, lemon juice or soy sauce, form and let it brew.
