Dairy Free Mozzarella Cheese

Dairy Free Mozzarella Cheese
- You use this cheese just as you would regular mozzarella cheese.
Ingredients:
1/4 C. raw cashews (soaked in water for several hours and then drained IF you don’t have a high powered blender)
1 C. hot water
2 T. + 1 t. tapioca starch
1 T. extra virgin olive oil (optional)
1 small garlic clove, minced
3/4 t. sea salt
1 t. fresh lemon juiceDirections:
- Blend all ingredients together in a high speed blender until completely smooth, about 1 minute.
- Pour into a small saucepan and cook, stirring constantly over medium high heat. After a couple of minutes the mixture will start to look weird, like it’s curdling or separating. - - - This is totally normal, reduce heat to medium and KEEP stirring so you don’t burn the cheese to the bottom of the pot.
- Keep cooking and stirring until it's really thick (about 2-3 more minutes) and the mixture becomes like a cohesive mass of melted dairy cheese and stretches.
- Remove from heat and let cool a bit while you assemble the pizzas.
