Best Nuts/Seeds for Yogurt/Cheese?
Posted by: Manta91 ()

Most recipes I've come across use either almonds or cashews. I'm allergic to almonds and have to temporarily abstain from cashews while treating my candida, so I was wondering what alternatives would taste best for in a fermented cheese or yogurt.

I've heard pine or Brazil do well for cheese -- would Brazil nuts perhaps be mild enough for yogurt? How about seeds? I'm not sure if sunflower seeds would taste too grassy.

this are some links you may be want to come across. Cheese is 10 time worse. Why would you want to eat cheese?

Hi Manta91, here's a recipe for sunflower an pumpkin seed cheese:

Panchito,

That's great information (thanks), but don't you think Dr. Greger was referring to a different kind of cheese (cow's milk) than the cheese Manta91 was referring to (from nuts or seeds)?

Hi La V,

Yeah, I've never seen this kind of recipe before - nut cheese with probiotics. I haven't tried it, but maybe I will.

i love probiotics

then....
all the better

Back when I was eating overt fats, I used walnuts as my favourite for making nut cheese, they go well with lemon juice and dill, it's a very pleasant mixture.
I also used sunflower seeds, the resulting cheese was very good.
I tried with pumpkin seeds too, and the cheese was tasy and with a different, specific taste similar to parmesan cheese.

Ela, I wouldn't have thought of using walnuts but will have to give it a go. I love lemon & dill.

Also, thanks Suncloud for the recipe. I'm also kind of surprised by the use of pumpkin seeds. I've always thought of them to have a smokey flavor more suited for "meaty" pates.

I think you will love the walnut cheese. Plus the walnuts are rich in Omega 3. I used to make walnut mayo too, just blending soaked walnuts and lemon juice until very creamy. Then used the mayo for making a veggie mayo salad (finely chopped veggies mixed with the mayo). I always used the food processor with the "S" blade for making cheese/mayo, never tried in the blender.

Awesome! I was looking for a sugar-free, cashew-free mayonnaise as well, ha.
