minus-squarechetradley@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up17·7 months agoI live in the US, so depending on where you live these may or may not be available to you. Cheese for me depends on the application: On a pizza, I like Miyokos liquid mozzarella. I’ll often get a chain pizza with no cheese, add a little on top and bake for a bit. Melted in a quesadilla, etc., I’ll usually go for daiya. Cold on something like a burrito bowl, I like Violife or Vevan. Violife also makes a great feta. For parmesan and blue cheese dressing, I’ll usually go with Follow Your Heart. For cheese sauces and mac and cheese, I like to make cashew cheese sauce. My favorite non dairy for drinking and baking is oat or soy, I just like to make sure it’s not sweetened. I started making my own yogurt in an instant pot with cheap Asian grocery store coconut milk and vegan cultures, and it’s fantastic. Hope this helps!
minus-squareilli@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·7 months agoOver here all vegan cheese is violife or similar. It is not bad but lacks the cheesiness and the flavor is frankly a little weird - I suspect the coconut oil to be behind it but can’t verify as all I have available is cockonut oil based :(
