Author Notes

From Julie Piatt and Rich Roll's
The Plantpower Way: Italia: "Making vegan Parmesan is so easy in this recipe—you just need four ingredients. If you skip soaking the nuts, your cheese will have a firmer texture. It's brilliant and useful, as one can prepare it just as the pasta water is boiling." —Food52

I found this recipe to be to wet for my liking. So, I doubled everything except the miso and added 3/4 tsp salt. Perfection! I could literally eat it by the spoonful and I put in on everything.

I’m going to give this a whirl- wondering why the same thing costs $10 at Whole Foods?!
