About this recipe

Another plant-based alternative to a popular cheese – today it's “ricotta” made from blanched almonds. You can add spices to your own taste and so make the recipe even more interesting. If you're interested in more plant-based cheese alternatives, you can also read the recipes for vegan mozzarella and nacho cheese on my blog. Both recipes can also be used as a pasta sauce or on pizza.

I use almonds from Odlično, which you can get with a 20% discount if you enter the code EVASUSIN20 in your basket.

Instructions

Method

1.Soak the almonds overnight, or simmer them on the hob for 10 minutes. Drain.
2.Put all the ingredients into a food processor or a small blender and blend well. Scrape down the sides several times and repeat the process until you get a spread-like texture – sometimes it takes a little longer, depending on your food processor, but don't give up. Mine isn't great either, and I always manage anyway. Add a little more water if needed, but really just a spoonful at a time so the mixture doesn't become too runny.
3.To taste, you can add some more spices or more salt.
