I look forward to making this and sharing it with some good friends and a few neighbors. They are all from Holland and would give their opinion. Like myself, they are now at home in the south of France 🇫🇷. As for myself, I've had my share of the "real thing" during trips to the Netherlands 🇳🇱. At home I adhere to my plant based lifestyle. However, there are occasions when I do simply try something special.
Can gelatin be used instead of Agar?
Looks great
I made this recipe yesterday evening. It was really good, but something was missing. I looked at the recipe again, and realized there is no salt in this recipe. I tried adding a little Himalayan salt on top of a small slice, and that did the trick. A little salt is all that it needed. Real cheese is salty. I will be adding salt to my next batch.
The main thing I’ve missed over the years about cheese is how it melts! Our kinda remote grocery store finally got a vegan grated cheese in stock and I bought it ($10 for a little bag)as a treat topping for your vegetable casserole Jill! Kept picturing it stretching out in melty strings (like on pizza!} when I spoon out a big scoop of the casserole! 😋But how disappointing!!😮 The vege casserole was delicious but those grated pieces of shredded cheese looked almost EXACTLY the same coming out of the oven as when they went in!😞The only difference was the change of colour- they did brown in the oven, going from a dull dirty yellow to tan. But they weren’t even gooey when poked with a fork!🫠😑😧 After the casserole cooled I went to slice up & refrigerate the leftovers and when I tilted a big scoop sideways to get it into the Tupperware, the shards of grated cheese just slid off the top!😮They landed on the counter and I picked one up-it was just like picking up a fine dust covered tiny piece of plastic.😦Even after 45 mins in the oven! 😲😣So after that way2long sad saga I’m dying to try your cheese Jill! ( but would have liked to see it melt!}😂
Do you have to use mustard or can this be done without?
Will try it soon…
Also, can you freeze the Gouda? I just made this with your sweet potato pizza and it's wonderful! But I have so much left over. Is freezing doable?
I would love to have an alternative to tree nuts. I have a family member who is very allergic to all tree nuts. Any suggestions?
Can you use arrowroot instead of Agar? Cannot wait to try this!!
Hi Jill, I am looking forward to trying this recipe as your other ones have been great! As an American who had lived in the Netherlands for 5 years, I wanted to alert you to the pronunciation of Gouda. The true Gouda cheese comes from a city in the Netherlands (South Holland). It is actually pronounced like the word "Loud", not like Gooood. Somehow over the years, it morphed to the other pronunciation, probably the American one, and seemed to have stuck there. I share this tip for any of those who may travel to any part of Europe and order the actual cheese so that the person taking the order doesn't feel like rolling their eyes. Please keep up the good work!
Can this be frozen once shredded? I think it would be difficult to make half the recipe (it probably wouldn't catch in the blender) but I live alone and can't eat that much nut cheese before it goes off.
This was unbelievable! We grated it and used it for pizza! Best plant based cheese we have tried. And so easy! Then you Jill!!!!
I made the smoked gouda! It came out great!!! I made Jill's taco pizza and used the smoked gouda since I was out of cashews and it worked really well on it!!! Jill, you are our Kitchen Magician! ❤
looks amazing!
I can see how this will melt like cheese can you please show.
I saved this video as a priority to try the recipe. Thanks for sharing free for all of us struggling to get by on a limited income ❤, and thanks to all your members who can support yur channel! 😊
Another great recipe, Jill! Love it! I didn’t have enough cashews, so I added some pecans and a Brazil nut (which is a great source of selenium, anyway). I also added a vegan B-12 tablet and a clove of garlic (it’s a good way to sneak raw garlic into one’s diet!). It’s wonderful! Great on vegan crackers! And, unlike dairy cheese, it is actually healthy! Thanks, Jill! Looking forward to the second cookbook!
I made the recipe. It’s very good but the cheese is too soft, not firm as her’s. My agar agar was watery.
What if, like me, you don’t have access to “liquid smoke”?
