VEGAN FETA
from Loving It Vegan

Ingredients

  • 2 cup Raw Cashews (150g)
  • 14 ounces Firm Tofu (226g)
  • 1/2 cup Water (60ml)
  • 1/2 cup Tbsp Lemon Juice
  • 2 Tbsp Distilled White Vinegar
  • 1/4 cup Tbsp Nutritional Yeast
  • 4 tsp Salt
  • 2 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 2 tsp Onion Powder
  • 2 cup Water (240ml)
  • 2 Tbsp Agar Agar Powder
  • 1 tsp Dried Oregano
  • 1 tsp Dried Dill

    Instructions

  • Add the raw cashews, firm tofu, ¼ cup water, lemon juice,
    white vinegar, nutritional yeast, salt, garlic powder and onion powder
    to the blender and blend. It will be thick. Set aside.

  • Prepare a loaf pan or square dish by spraying with non-stick spray. Set aside.

  • Add one cup of water and a tablespoon of agar agar powder to a
    saucepan and bring to the boil stirring constantly. When it starts boiling,
    set a timer and let it boil (while you continue to stir) for 1 minute.

  • Moving very quickly, as the agar starts to set up fast, pour out the agar/water
    mix into the blender with the other ingredients and blend in quickly.
    Then, again very quickly, pour this out into your prepared loaf pan.

  • Smooth it down and then place into the fridge and leave it to set.

  • Once the feta cheese has set, loosen the sides with a knife and tip it out onto a wooden board.

  • Cut it into slices and then cut the slices into cubes.

  • Place the cubes into a bowl with a lid, add the dried oregano and
    dried dill (optional) and then put on the lid and rotate the bowl
    so that all the pieces of feta get evenly covered.

  • Now your vegan feta is ready to serve.

  • Keep it stored in the fridge and enjoy within about a week.
    It is also freezer friendly if you think you may not finish it within a week.
  • Per 6 half-inch cubes:
