Cheddar Cheese sauce - the bomb!

[Morn]

I just made this cheddar cheese sauce for my raw pizza I made for tomorrow's raw food potluck. It is the bomb! It really tastes like the best cheese I have made so far! I hope you all like it!

Your recipe for cheddar cheese sauce looks wonderful!!
I was wondering if the nuts were soaked or not?

Thanks for any reply, I look forward to making it soon!

Raw food is the best.

I only soaked mine for about an hour cause of time constraints.

Oh I just wanted to mention that someone else wondered if this would make a good broccoli soup. I think it could by adding more water and of course broccoli and some cumin. Like broccoli cheese soup. Yum! I will have to experiment some day with this.

Thanks Morn! I will be making this when I get home from work.
Can't wait

I just made this cheddar sauce and it's awesome, probably the closest to the real taste of cheese raw recipe I tried so far.

I only had black tahini though so it sort of turned out a weird gray, I need to find or make myself white tahini. What color does this sauce have when done with white tahini?

Thanks

Hey Morn - thanks for posting this recipe :) I can't wait to try it out. I need to find a cheddar cheese substitute big time.

Sorry for my ignorance but does 1 T tahini stand for 1 teaspoon or 1 tablespoon - I don't want to get my proportions way out!

In general, a big T means Tablespoon, and a little t means teaspoon.

Thank you so much Morn! This is outstanding! I made it tonight and ate it with cukes...had to restrain myself from overindulging....very, very good!
