Vegetarian Parmazano Cheese
- 1 cup nutritional yeast flakes
- 1/2 cup raw almonds, blanched and patted dry
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- *Toblanch almonds, place them in enough water to completely cover.
- Bring to a boil and simmer for 1-2 minutes.
- Drain and allow to cool, or rinse under cold tap water for rapid cooling.
- Pinch skins between thumb and forefinger at the base of each almond.
- Skins will slip off readily.
- Place all the ingredients in a food processor, and process for several minutes until the almonds are very finely ground.
- Store in a tightly sealed container in the refrigerator.
- Note: This is very easy to make if you have a food processor.
- If you do not have one, you can grind it in an electric nut, spice, or coffee mill.
- Blenders are not recommednded for grinding almonds, since more time and frequent stopping to stir the mixture are necessary.
