Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Raw cashews
- 4 tablespoons Nutritional yeast
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.75 teaspoon Fine sea salt
Instructions
Add the raw cashews, nutritional yeast, garlic powder, onion powder, and fine sea salt to a food processor or blender.
Pulse the mixture several times until you achieve a fine, crumbly texture similar to grated Parmesan cheese. Be careful not to over-process, as this can cause the cashews to turn into a paste.
Taste the mixture and adjust the seasoning, adding a pinch more salt or nutritional yeast if desired.
Transfer the vegan Parmesan cheese to an airtight container and store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 weeks.
Use as a topping for pasta dishes, soups, salads, or any dish that could use a savory, cheesy flavor.
