Hi everyone! Obviously I am not making this recipe now because I am away on holidays overseas but seeing as though I would do pretty much anything right now for a good dose of probiotics, I thought I’d share this with you so you can get a healthy gut for me.
Our trip has been AMAZING, we have seen so many beautiful places, experienced fabulous foods & met some wonderful people but I am counting down the days until I get home to my own kitchen & can get back to nourishing my body in the way I like to.
On a side note, Trav didn’t take these pictures which is why they look rubbish…. But you get the idea.
2 cups raw cashews/macadamias/blanched almonds
Filtered
Contents of 2 probiotic capsules
In a bowl add the nuts & cover with water and leave to soak for 8hrs or overnight. In the morning, discard the soaking water & add the nuts with 1 cup fresh filtered water plus the contents of the probiotic capsules to a high speed blender/food processor & blend until smooth & creamy.
Place some muslin or cheese cloth in a sieve over a bowl. Add the cheese to the middle of the cloth, twist the cloth firmly to secure closed. Place a small weight (jar, mug, plate) on top of the closed cloth so that it is helping to weigh down the cheese and allow any excess liquid to begin to drain off. After about an hour you can add some extra weight. The firmer you want your cheese, the more liquid you will need to remove. Allow this to ferment at room temperature for about 12 hrs.
Once the fermentation has happened you can flavour your cheese if you like with fresh herbs, salt, pepper, spices, pesto etc or leave it plain. I have also used mine like a cream cheese filling for cheesecake.
