Fakey Cheezy Nutty Crumby Topping (Vegan)

 

This is what we use instead of parmesan cheese

for sprinkling on (that highly spiced of course)

pasta.*

 

2 Tbsp ground almonds

2 Tbsp ground wholewheat crackers (soda crackers

work fine too) 2 Tbsp nutritional yeast flakes

1/2 tsp oregano 1/2 tsp paprika a few grinds

black pepper salt to taste

 

I use a food processor grinder-upper, then mix

everything together, taste for seasoning

and then keep in an airtight jar in the fridge

next to the soycheez slices. You can of course

make it in larger quantities, but I keep varying

the mix so it's good to make it a bit at a

time. One mix uses no oregano but does add

cayenne . . .

 

*Note: It's good, btw. We have a hard time

finding vegan paremezan here - now and then, but

never when you want it - and I don't see the

point of paying a bomb for what I don't enjoy

anyhow. It has a cheezy flavour, but the paprika

and oregano (or thyme or whatever one wants to

use) give it a sort of cheese-log flavour (at

least that's what it reminds me of). When I add

cayenne to the mix (often!) my tastebuds sit up

and howl with delight.
