I didn’t find any store-bought brands. There were a couple of recipes, but they either used too weird of ingredients, or seemed too complicated for such a simple food. Takes less than 10 minutes to make and only 6 ingredients for this healthy, dairy-free recipe. So what is this madness made out of?
I used a silken tofu for the liquid-y part, which I blended and seasoned just so. Then I crumbled in firm tofu for the texture. Did anyone else ever used to eat cottage cheese out of a cantaloupe, or was that just a me thing? So here you go my friends, vegan cottage cheese. I’m always eager to make vegan cooking your favourite thing, so if you have any more recipe requests, drop them in the comments below. Easy Vegan Cottage Cheese: Add the silken tofu to a blender along with the spices and mix until everything is completely smooth.
Now, this saucy part is slightly more on the creamy-yellow side of the white scale due to the nutritional yeast, but that hardly seems like a big deal to me when the flavour friends are are all there. It does whiten up when the firm tofu is added, but still isn’t bright white. Now take the firm tofu and crumble it into the silken tofu mixture. Enjoy as is or it should work almost anywhere you would use traditional cottage cheese. Add the soft or silken tofu to a blender along with the nutritional yeast, apple cider vinegar, lemon juice, and salt.
Mix until everything is completely smooth, stopping to scrape the sides as needed. Pour the soft tofu mixture into a medium bowl. Crumble the firm tofu into the silken tofu mixture. I know silken tofu takes on a chicken-like consistency when frozen.
My need for cottage cheese is for a family recipe of lazy pierogi. I generally use large curd cottage cheese and strain it through cheese cloth for 48 hours so its almost crumbly. If i use half the silken and all the firm it should kinda resemble that? I see everywhere is that vegans try so hard to get them to be tangy. Neither cheese has much flavor at all but if anything, ricotta is actually sweet. Notify me via e-mail if anyone answers my comment.
