When I mentioned eating ricotta made with cashew nuts in a vegan cafe in Camden a few weeks back several lovely friends sent me recipes so I could try making it myself. It's easy to become weary of fake dairy cheese. The manufactured ones are pretty hit and miss & are sometimes full of strange ingredients so it seems like a good idea to try to make some of my own. I'm happy to report that this one is just great! It's made from just a few ingredients: cashews, tofu, olive oil, lemon juice, salt & basil but really has that lovely, creamy consistency & taste of ricotta. Can't wait to get cooking with it.
