2cups(300grams)raw cashews(sub almonds or walnuts)
3tablespoons(13grams)nutritional yeast
½teaspoonsaltor more to taste
2tablespoons(45grams)soy sauce
1clovegarlic(optional)
Preheat oven to 350°F or 180°C. Arrange 2 cups raw cashews(also almonds or walnuts) on a baking sheet and bake in the oven for about 8 to 10 minutes, moving them around the baking sheet halfway through cooking.They should be lightly toasted.
Let nuts cool down 10 minutes, then add them to a food processor with 3 tablespoons nutritional yeast and ½ teaspoon salt.Optionally, you can add1 clove garlic (chopped).Pulse a few times to turn the nuts into coarse nut flour that looks like grated parmesan cheese.
When you are happy with the texture, add 2 tablespoons soy sauce while blending.Taste and adjust for salt and ensure not to over-blend the nuts, or they might turn into cashew butter.
Spread the parmesan on the baking sheet and let it dry at room temperature for 30 minutes before using it or storing it in a jar in the fridge.
