Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1
Soak raw almonds for 12 hours.
Step 2
After that, blend the nuts with water until smooth.
Step 3
Next, strain the almond milk from the nut mixture using cheesecloth. Lightly twist the cheesecloth into a bundle and squeeze the cheese without too much force — at this stage, it should not become dry — the consistency should allow mixing with spices. Delicious nut milk will remain in the bowl.
Step 4
Remove the cheese from the cheesecloth, add lemon juice, olive oil, herbs, and pepper, and mix well.
Step 5
Place the mixture back in the cheesecloth, this time squeeze with more force. You will get a tasty nut sauce with spices. The cheese should acquire the consistency of processed cheese. Hang it in the cheesecloth on a string for 8 hours for fermentation. After that, the cheese can be sliced and garnished with fresh herbs.
