Imitation Cheese (Vegan)

A vegan cheese that mainly consists of potato, oil and soy.

Ingredients

  • 5 ea. (750g–1kg) large, hard boiling potatoes
  • 20 ml soy sauce or yeast extract
  • 20 ml margarine or rapeseed oil
  • Corn flour or breading mixture
  • Any of the following optional ingredients:
  • Salt or celery salt
  • Bear's garlic or garlic
  • Herbs, e.g. paprika, thyme, rosemary, cumin, oregano and savory
  • Onions
  • Taco seasoning mix (e.g. corn flour, salt, chili, onion, garlic, paprika, sodium glutamate)
  • 1–3 g chili seasoning mix (e.g. chilies, orange zest, sesame, paprika, celery, and mustard)
  • 1–5 g vegetable stock
  • Unrefined sugar (or sugar not refined using the char method)
  • Pepper
  • 10 ml vinegar

Instructions

  1. 1
    Boil potatoes until they are not quite done. If the potatoes are not completely done the resulting substance may be sliceable, although it will be easy to spread anyway.
  2. 2
    Mash the potatoes, then stir in the soy sauce.
  3. 3
    Mix in some margarine and cornflour. The substance should take on the consistency of peanut butter but have more the color of cheese than anything else.
  4. 4
    Mix in any of the optional additions to add flavor to the mixture.
  5. 5
    Press the substance into a small, round form, to give it the form of a cheddar cheese. Unmold and serve.
