Vegan Cheese: Simple, Delicious Plant-Based Recipes

I have always loved cheese! I love the different textures and taste. I love pairing it with other foods and sauces, and the combinations can be magical. I haven't eaten any dairy cheese in almost 5 years though, because my body rejected it. Luckily many grocery stores now carry some type of non-dairy cheese... BUT if you crave a wide variety of different flavors and types, then you're probably out of luck unless you live near a large foodie type city. That's why I was so excited to get my hands on this book. If you follow Jules on Instagram you've seen some of the luscious cheese she's filled her cookbook with. Just as importantly though, she kept the recipes simple. She also has very straightforward and helpful information, so even a beginning cook or someone without lots of fancy kitchen tools can make these recipes. Speaking of the book itself, I like how beautifully it's put together. Everything is formatted very well, so you don't have to flip back and forth trying to find information. You'll love the photos too (not only because they are of yummy CHEESE!), but because they are across from the recipe. This way you can see what it should look like and also get some ideas for styling. This really is such a excellent cookbook, and I cannot wait to eat my way through it!

I love everything about this book. It has simple and easy recipes to follow. My favorite so far has been the French style Brie and the other one that I made was the three peppercorn cheese. Absolutely wonderful. You should pick up this book and give it a try. I'm no longer afraid to go in the kitchen and make cheese or yogurt I haven't done made cheese since I was 8 years old with my Hungarian maternal grandmother. Now I've conquered all my fears regarding cheese. Give it a try!

OH WOW!!!! This book is my kind of book: to the point, few instructions, beautiful pictures, & the best part, AMAZING recipes!! After watching the documentary "What the Health" I decided to embark into a journey of cheeseless meals (as a vegetarian, I thought cheese was a must have in my diet, but I now realize how toxic it actually is). I came across this book and so far I made a few recipes.. even invited my best friends for a vegan cheese tasting experience! They all LOVED IT!!! So if you're currently thinking about changing your lifestyle to a dairy-free one.. do yourself a FAVOR and get this book! You will NOT be disappointed!! Thank you Jules for such a practical cruelty-free book!

Great book! I would have loved more cultured vegan cheese recipes though. The vegan milks recipes were an added bonus.

Ive been following Jules on instagram and was instantly intrigued by her presentation, drive and passion for beautiful, nutritious food! I am not a vegan, but I do love finding dairy free options for family members and friends who are. This book is everything. The recipes are simple enough that even a kitchen newbie could make them, and there is such a wonderful variety, from ricotta, feta and walnut parmesan. The photos are gorgeous, and I can't wait to try them all! This book is a must for anyone interested in vegan, dairy free, or just fun and delicious recipes :)

Spent three weeks working on vegan cheese recipes from this book. This is not an instant gratification process. The feta made a very passable spanokopita, the brie was okay (probably could have cultured longer) the cream cheese recipes are great and I'm still waiting to try a couple of the air dried varieties. The mozzarella was disappointing on pizza but great in lasagna. You may have to order some ingredient but that wasn't a huge issue. The recipes are all less oily than store-bought vegan cheese and there was a lot of thought that went into the texture and meltability (is that a real word?) so that there is a good mouth-feel.

I bought this book 7 years ago and have made a few of the recipes. The recipes are easy to follow and the book is laid out well. We had a dairy-free guest this Thanksgiving but I didn’t want to skip the cheeseboard so I pulled the book out. We all ate the cheeses and our DF guest loved enjoying a safe cheeseboard! *I know the honey in the pic isn’t vegan but I’m only aiming for dairy free

It’s really does not cover your true options available today... there are relatively speaking more options available to use as a catalyst for these cheeses. I was lucky enough to come across a product made of “pea extract”. It does not carry the almond, cashew or any other unwanted ‘ overpowering flavor at all. You have the ability to adjust the product (cheese, yogurt etc.) to have a true flavor desired. A Stilton, blue cheese, ricotta and mozzarella are only as good as it’s flavor. I’m not being critical - but due to the newly available base products, this book could be a “True Pioneer” in the plant-based Cheese stampede. Wonderful - but dated. PLEASE UPDATE THE DIGITAL VERSION. IT WOULD BE AWESOME.

In the pursuit of making decent cheese alternatives I bought this book, but it will never even come close to dairy cheese, and that might be too much to expect, but these alternatives are not very tasty

Excellent book!

What an amazing book. The first thing I did was go through this marking so many cheeses I want to make. I've already tried the Baked Feta and it is incredible! Can'twait to try more...
