Vegan Camembert

Vegan Camembert:

Vegan Camembert also knows as a delicious dairy-free cheese which replicates the smooth traditional Camembert cheese. If you are looking for a vegan cheese alternative or a plant-based cheese option, this recipe is ideal for a vegan cheese board giving the gourmet touch to your vegan appetizers. It is easy to make and it is also made with simple, whole food ingredients, this dairy-free Camembert is not only vegan but also gluten-free and nut-free, making it a versatile addition to a variety of diets. Whether you’re preparing a vegan charcuterie board or looking to elevate your vegan recipes, this vegan Camembert will be the star of your meal.

Ingredients:

200 gr raw no salt Cashew nuts or any nut of choice.

1/8 tea spoon of Penicillium candidum

1/8 of mesophilic culture or thermophilic.

50 ml of water.

Method:

soak the nuts overnight or at least 6 hours. Wash it in warm water (to make the nuts lukewarm) and put it in a food processor or blender mixer. Put half the water, and add the cultures and blend it until becomes a paste. You can add the water slowly, just to help the blending. But not a lot of water, it needs to be a paste like texture.

If you have a cloth, put it in a small container and put this paste on it to shape. Next day, with a lot of care, remove the cloth and place the cheese in a bigger container, sprinkle a bit of salt on top. Use baking or vegetable paper under the cheese, it help to moving. You need to turn it everyday, so the mould grows evenly. It needs to be kept in a cool place, ideal temperature something between 8 and 11 Celsius. But if you place it in the fridge bottom (it is less cold) it also works. In less then one week you see the white layer, but let it about 10 days to dry a bit and get harder. Some people leave it 4 weeks. Everyday you can smell and check if everything is going ok.

Important, the two main ingredients in cheese making is patience and hygiene haha. Remember it is a living food, and it’s easy to get contamination. Hands and kitchenware very clean are a must.

I’m a foreign, so forgive my grammar lol.

Tips: if using thermophilic culture you need to warm up the nuts at 45°C. You can use a bain Marie pot. Mesophilic is 30-35° C. Enjoy

Ingredients:

  • 1 Scallion
  • 1/4 cup almond flour
  • 1 Garlic cloves
  • Salt
  • 5 cups broccoli florets
  • 1/2 cup Quinoa
  • 1/2 tsp granulated garlic
  • 2 tbsp Oil

Instructions;

  1. Use a fine-mesh strainer to drain the grain with water. Empty. In a small saucepan, bring a single cup of water and millet to a boil, cover, reduce heat to low, and allow to simmer for ten to twelve minutes till the quinoa is firm, and its water is completely absorbing.
  2. Switch off the heater and cover it for a few minutes at most.
  3. Steam asparagus: Don’t overcook rice broccoli; instead, steam it till it’s soft while the rice or quinoa is baking. Thoroughly drain, allow to cool, and then towel thoroughly.
    In the bowl of a food processor, mix broccoli, a few herbs, cooked quinoa, the yolk, salt, cloves, and mozzarella; process before mending. Add the ground almonds and pulse to fully incorporate.
  4. The mix should form a mound on a spoon and be just enough tacky to form patties with ease. Add a tablespoon of almond extract at a time to the mixture if it appears too wet before it is controllable. Using wet hands, press four large hamburgers into one another.
  5. Although it shouldn’t be necessary, feel free to dust those with wheat or breadcrumbs, especially if they seem extremely moist.
  6. Fire the oil in a pot on a normal heat. Arrange the hamburgers on the skillet around them, then decrease the fire to normal. Try not to move or tinker with them.
  7. Flipping has become much simpler, as they will automatically remove their bodies from the pan when they develop a rich gold crust without a stick. Here, use a thin metal spatula. Rubber knives are more difficult to reach beneath delicate objects because of their larger edges.
  8. After a minute or so, flip when golden and release.  Reduce the temperature further if necessary, and pan-sear on the other half while the egg has heated through and is slightly puff in the center.
  9. If those are becoming too brown as they cook using the burner, you can also bake them for the remaining time at a temperature of 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and pour in the plant-based milk, melted coconut oil, maple syrup, and vanilla extract (if using). Whisk the ingredients together until you have a smooth batter. The consistency should be similar to that of heavy cream. If the batter seems too thick, add a little more milk to thin it out.

  3. Heat a non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat. Lightly grease the pan with a small amount of coconut oil. Pour approximately 1/2 cup of batter onto the heated pan. Tilt and swirl the pan to spread the batter into a thin, even layer.

  6. Fill the crepes with your desired toppings and fillings. They can be enjoyed sweet with fruit, vegan Nutella, or maple syrup, or savory with vegan cheese, sautéed vegetables, or vegan cream sauce.

1 cup fresh or frozen raspberries (thawed if frozen)

1/2 cup granulated sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 can (14 ounces) full-fat coconut milk (chilled in the refrigerator overnight)

Pinch of salt

Instructions:

Start by preparing your aquafaba. Drain a can of chickpeas, and reserve the liquid (aquafaba) in a bowl. You can store the chickpeas for other recipes.

In a blender or food processor, blend the raspberries until smooth. If you prefer a seedless ice cream, you can strain the raspberry puree through a fine-mesh sieve to remove the seeds.

In a mixing bowl, combine the raspberry puree, sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix well until the sugar is dissolved.

In a separate large mixing bowl, add the chilled coconut milk. Whip the coconut milk using an electric mixer until it becomes fluffy and creamy.

Gently fold the raspberry mixture into the whipped coconut milk until well combined.

In another clean mixing bowl, whisk the aquafaba and a pinch of salt using an electric mixer until it forms stiff peaks. This might take a few minutes.

Carefully fold the whipped aquafaba into the raspberry-coconut mixture. Be gentle to retain the airiness of the aquafaba.

Pour the ice cream mixture into a freezer-safe container, cover it with a lid, and place it in the freezer.

Let the ice cream freeze for at least 4-6 hours, or until it reaches the desired consistency. You can also stir the ice cream every hour during the freezing process to prevent ice crystals from forming.

Once the ice cream is frozen, scoop it into bowls or cones, and enjoy your creamy and fruity vegan raspberry ice cream!
