Cashew Cream Cheese



cheese-and-crackers
Cashew Cream Cheese
  • 2 C Cashews
  • 1/2 C rejuvelac**
Cover cashews with water and soak overnight. Drain off water. Place cashews in vitamix and process with rejuvelac until a smooth paste forms. You can add a dash of celtic sea salt. Line a strainer with 2 layers of cheese cloth. Spoon mixture into the cloth. Set in a warm place and let set for 24 hours. Form into the shape you want. I coated the outside with cracked pepper. Put in refrigerator to finish setting. Store in the refrigerator for about a week.  Serve with your favorite crackers--recently I served it with rosemary crackers--Delicious!!

**If you are wondering what rejuvelac is, it is a fermented liquid made from sprouting wheat berries that is said to be high in enzymes, friendly bacteria, vitamins and minerals. It is known as a health drink. If you have been following this site,  you know I am sprouting a lot of wheat berries these days. I decided to put some of those sprouted wheat berries to work, make some rejuvelac and then, the cheese.
Rejuvelac
  • 1/2 C sprouted wheat berries (sprouted just until tails start)
  • 4 C filtered water
Place the wheat berries and the water in a jar. Leave in a warm place for 24-48 hours. You will see a little fizz. The liquid should be a little tart but not smell off.
