Recipe

1. Combine all of the ingredients into a blender. Blend on high speed until the mixture is smooth.

2. Pour the mixture into a small pot on the stove. Turn the stove onto medium-high heat.

3. With a whisk, continuously whisk the mixture as it heats up. This process should take about 5-7 minutes.

4. Once the mixture thickens and becomes gooey and stretchy, immediately remove it from the heat to prevent overcooking.

5. Transfer the cooked cashew mozzarella into a container for storage. Use it right away or refrigerate for up to 2 weeks.

6. Use the cashew mozzarella as a topping on pizzas, in soups, or any other dish where melted cheese is desired. Reheat as needed and enjoy the creamy, cheesy goodness of homemade cashew mozzarella!
