Raw cheese recipe: Almond Ricotta Cheese with Paprika

This is a recipe for a dairy-free nut cheese made with your own probiotics!

Raw nut or seed cheeses offer a great, healthy alternative to dairy cheeses. The base is made from soaked almond and cashew nuts, which gives it that perfect texture. You can use other nuts instead, just be aware that there will be a difference in flavor.

This cheese has a much stronger taste – in comparison to the other recipes – due to the addition of garlic and dried tomatoes.

To create the “cheesy” taste, I use lemon juice, nutritional yeast and rejuvelac. The rejuvelac aids in the fermenting process and increases the health benefits greatly.

For making the cheese, you will first need to make the rejuvelac, which will act as the probiotic during the process of fermentation. Please note that you need to add a couple of days for the preparation of the rejuvelac. The grain needs to be sprouted first, to make the water turn into rejuvelac (video recipe is below). READ MORE
