HERBED CHEESE SPREAD



Herbed Cheese Spread image

Tastes just like the expensive Boursin® cheese spread you buy at the store. Reduced-fat cream cheese works well in this recipe. Delicious spread on crackers or as a fill on celery sticks. Good shelf life in the refrigerator. This can be eaten right way, but it's best if refrigerated for at least one day before serving.

HERBED CASHEW CHEESE SPREAD RECIPE - (4.4/5)



Herbed Cashew Cheese Spread Recipe - (4.4/5) image

Provided by SpartyGreenMom

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups cashews
1 cup warm water
1/4 teaspoon probiotic powder
1 tablespoon light miso
1 tablespoon pine nuts, chopped
1 green onion, chopped
2 tablespoons cilantro, chopped
2 tablespoons chives, chopped
1 clove garlic, chopped finely
1 tablespoon nutritional yeast
Fresh ground pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Mix probiotic powder with water and stir. Add probiotic mixture to blender, add cashews. Blend at low speed and gradually increase speed and blend until smooth. Spoon mixture into a nut bag or cheesecloth. Squeeze and place in strainer and leave to ferment for up to 8 to 12 hours. Time required to ferment will differ depending on how warm it is. Do not ferment beyond 12 hours as it may become rancid. Once fermentation process is complete, spoon cheese from nut bag into bowl. Add remaining ingredients, stir well together. Place in mini 4.5 inch spring form pan. Press well and leave in fridge for at least 6-8 hrs to mold to the spring form and so flavours are more enhanced. Turn upside down, release from pan and sprinkle with dried herbs. Nut cheese is very dense with the nuts, so only use a little for portions. Cashew cheese is also delicious used when making wraps, spread some cashew cheese spread over the wrap or lettuce leaf, add vegetables and sprouts, perhaps a little salsa.
