Tips:

  • Select the right nuts: Choose nuts with a nutty, savory flavor, such as cashews, almonds, or walnuts.
  • Activate the nuts: Soaking the nuts overnight in water helps soften them and enhances their flavor.
  • Use a food processor: A food processor is the best tool for achieving a fine, grated texture.
  • Add nutritional yeast: Nutritional yeast adds a cheesy, umami flavor to the parmesan cheese.
  • Season to taste: Add salt, garlic powder, and onion powder to taste until you achieve the desired flavor.
  • Store properly: Keep the vegan parmesan cheese in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
