description
A very simple vegan cheese made from almonds that will amaze you. In the aesthetics it resembles mozzarella, although obviously the taste is different, very delicate. To try!
preparation
step 1
Blend the almonds until they are reduced to flour. You can also buy almond flour directly, but in my opinion it is best to make it from dried fruit.
step 2
Transfer the almond flour into a saucepan, add the water, cornstarch, salt and oil to cold water. Jumbled up. Put the saucepan on the heat and cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens.
step 3
You must obtain the consistency of the semolina. Moisten the glass or bowl - only the final shape will change - and pour in the almond semolina. Once cooled, cover it with a saucer and put it in the fridge for at least two hours.
step 4
Ready to be enjoyed!
step 5
You can slice the almond mozzarella and eat it with tomatoes like the classic Caprese, or use it to stuff sandwiches for a summer outing, or even to cut it into cubes to mix with a cold pasta salad.
