Homemade Vegan Mozzarella

Here’s the recipe of this amazing vegan cheese:

Ingredients:
2 generous tablespoons potato starch
6 tablespoons soy milk
1 heaped tablespoon of soy creamer
1 teaspoon margarine
3 heaped tablespoons soy yogurt
salt to taste

Method:
Melt the potato starch with the soy milk then add the cream, the margarine and salt, stir and place on a low heat. Stir well until it starts to thicken then remove from the heat and add three tablespoons of yogurt, put on the fire and stir vigorously, to avoid lumps. Continue cooking for 10 to 15 min. always a low flame. When the mixture starts to dry on the sides of the pan, it’s ready. Transfer to a greased bowl, let it cool slightly and refrigerate. It will be ready after about 6 to 8 hours.  It won’t be exactly like a mozzarella but you will be able to slice it and use it on pizzas.  Enjoy 🙂

   A question: when you say “melt” in the directions, do you mean that we need to use heat too, or just dissolve and then heat and stir?
   The first time we tried, we “melted” the starch in the soy milk on some heat, ’cause that’s what melting implies; but we immediately started getting lumps so we ended up with a lumpy mozzarella. We then did it again, dissolving first the starch in the milk and cream, then adding heat, and we got a decent product.
   Just need to make sure the directions are right 🙂

   Hi Moky, when I prepare it I do as follows: I place soy milk on some heat and while it’s heating I dissolve starch into it. I then keep stirring to avoid lumps until it starts thickening.
   Hope this helps 🙂

   can you replace the potato starch with cornstarch?

   Curious: Does this “cheese” shred? crumble? melt? freeze? I appreciate that this particular vegan moz recipe calls for common ingredients; thank you for sharing. 🙂
