Truly amazing and opened up my eyes to how good vegan cheese should be!

I made this for a mushroom lasagna and (filled with homemade cashew ricotta) it was incredible. I'm even snacking on the leftover cheese. It was that good! Note that I couldn't find unstuffed green olives so went ahead with the olives stuffed with pimento and it was fine. I'm so happy to have found this recipe. As a vegan I've missed good cheese in my life and this was truly great cheese. and so easy to make! Thanks for this recipe!

Hi AL! Welcome ๐Ÿ™‚ While a lot of my recipes have oil-free options, unfortunately, this recipe wouldn't work well without the coconut oil as it helps provide the correct texture. Instead I recommend trying my powdered parmesan recipe which is oil free, or another cheese recipe like my quick and easy cheese which can be made oil free if you check the recipe notes. I hope that helps!

Based on all of the rave reviews of this recipe, I'm going to definitely try it. However, I'm attempting to remove oil from my diet as much as possible - for both health and weight loss. Is there an alternative that can be used in place of the coconut oil in this recipe?

Hi Jan,
Just learned from Sam that there is a button at the bottom of the ingredient list to change us customary to metric. I used a bit too little soy milk and a bit too much potato flour. Mine was a bit floury, but still tasty. I definitely will try with the right measurements and I am sure it will be a winner!
Give it a go! Xx

Yes, absolutely. You can adjust based on your taste preferences.

Sorry for any confusion! We do try very hard to keep up on metric conversions, and you can click between them right at the bottom of the list of ingredients where it says "US Customary - Metric".

In reply to Linda.

Could I reduce or leave out the nutritional yeast? I found that it dominated the flavor and I'm not a fan. Otherwise the consistency and texture is spot on!

I tried the parmesan today and the recipe is straightforward. It is currently in the steamer and I havenโ€™t seen the result yet.

I have a general request, as I love and try so many of your recipes I would like to ask if you could please add a button to convert the cups into millilitres or grams or just add the measurements to the recipe. It always physically hurts me to use cups as it is not precise. Itโ€™s not so important for a curry, but for something like the parmesan, which has to get hard, 50 grams more flour or less flour makes a difference in the result, e.g. how well you can grate the parmesan.
I am using US cups. Today, I tried again to use the cups for the parmesan. 1/2 cup is 125 ml but I only could fit 120 ml soy milk in my cup before it overflowed. And it seems important to be precise as you add 2 more tablespoons of soy milk. I also tried to get 250 gr of potato flour in my 1 cup measuring cup, but could only fit 180 grams and it was already piled up very high over the top.
Thank you for considering the option to add grams and millilitres to your amazing recipes. You are famous not only in the US but all over the world and this would help not only me :)) Love from down under

Hi Suzy, to add to what Jess said, the cheese shouldn't have a strong olive taste at all, the olives should just add a subtle tang. It might be that you are using stronger flavored olives that I did. You could either try a different brand of olives, or reduce or even omit the olives. You can also reduce the coconut oil to taste and it should still work fine. Enjoy!

This is my first shredable vegan cheese. It was easy and the consistency was great. Very tasty. I don't like olives but it was still yummy.

We're happy to hear you like the texture! Some readers use sauerkraut to get the briny flavour without the olive taste!

I made it as written. I love how it grates, and even better how it shaves off to go on top of salads. Mine seemed to have more of an olive taste, which was I didn't care for. I'm not a fan of capers either, but is there another substitute for the olives? The mouth feel was a little greasier than regular or vegan Parmesan, can I reduce the coconut oil a bit? I'm looking forward to trying it on my home made pizza! Any suggestion to minimize the olive flavor? Thanks!

This is 100% better than any store bought vegan parmesan out there, yum yum! I made it exactly as stated, no modifications. It firms up beautifully in the fridge, breaks apart for an appealing rustic look, and most importantly it tastes great. I find the store bought vegan parms and other cheeses to be way over-flavored, much too sharp and artificial tasting. I am excited to have a steady supply of tasty parmesan on hand again. I wrapped and put several wedges in the freezer so it should last a while. You nailed it, Sam! Thanks for another awesome recipe.

Hi Linda. You need 6 tablespoons of nutritional yeast, which is equivalent to 89 ml or 36 grams.

You could use a small measuring glass like this one. Six tablespoons of nutritional yeast is approximately 36 grams.

So happy you enjoyed it Audrey! If it needs longer steaming to set then it is totally ok. I haven't tested it in a pressure cooker so I cannot advise on that. If you give it a try let us know how it turns out. Enjoy!

The taste is amazing. I cooked it as per the instructions (45 min) but it was about only half cooked.
is it possible to use a pressure cooker? and if so, what mode / time would you recommend?
Thanks for your always amazing recipes.

Absolutely delicious! Me and two friends banded together to make ours, we had to use black olives but thats ok! We also had to remove the soy and we substituted coconut aminos for the miso. We all loved the recipe! Will def make it again!
