    Talking pizza cheese or mac'n'cheese

    this is the recipe i use for cheese, when i wanna make a pizza, a toast, mac'n'cheese, on top of lasagna, or,..

    2 tbs nutritional yeast
    2 tbs white flour

    -mix together.

    in a saucepan, melt 2 tbs of margarine, and stir in the yeast/flour-mix.
    mix in 1/2 a cup of water or soymilk, stir a bit, add 1-2 tsp of mustard, some salt and pepper.
    stir some more, let it heat. (it should start thickening now..)

    make sure it has a creamy consitensy.

    you can add 1 tsp of curry to make it yellowish.

    add it to the pizza, the lasagna, or whatever, just about 15-20 minutes before it's done. it'll brown a bit.

    tastes very mild and cheesy.

    or...a pinch of turmeric if you didnt want the curry flavour?

    sounds nice, thanks.

    I'm going to try your recipe Smoothie, it seems easier than the one I use but absolutely adore. It's in 'Vegan' by Tony Weston and Yvonne Bishop. I love it! It's great as 'cheese' on toast as well which I used to love and missed.

    I make something similar but I also add in yeast extract, onion powder, dried parsley and dried chives.

    yeah, guess you could do it. i all onions and garlic sometimes, and fry 'em a bit, before adding the rest of the ingredients. it is very good though.

    tried it today. i'm in america right now and i'm amazed that I found those ingredients in wal mart. I guess i did not do it right and added too much milk. it was palatable but it just tasted like mac and cheese but no cheese. though coated in barbecue sauceit was lovely.

    you need to let it thicken for a bit of time, and taste all of the time, to make sure it doesn't need anything

    Call me dumb what is white flour the same as All Purpose Bleached Flour? I will be making your cheese and I have regular bleached flour, will that do?

    you can generally get it in health food shops - it comes in a cylindrical tub (quite big) - look for engevita, i think the brand is.
    i think the vegan store sell it too.
