Parmesan Walnut
-
This recipe or its almond variation makes a great sprinkle for pasta, pizza, casseroles, and anything else that benefits from a savory garnish. Amy Beadle Roth
Makes about 1 1/4 cups (285g)
1 cup (225g) coarsely chopped raw walnuts
2 tablespoons nutritional yeast flakes
1/2 teaspoon ground sea salt, or to taste
In a small bowl, mix the walnuts, nutritional yeast, and salt together. In batches, if necessary, grind the mixture in a coffee grinder dedicated to ingredients other than coffee.
Grind for 8 to 10 seconds per batch. Don’t overgrind the mixture.
Transfer the mixture to a tightly covered container and refrigerate.
The cheese will keep in a tightly covered container, refrigerated, for about 1 week, assuming the walnuts are fairly fresh.
Tip: Nutritional yeast can be found in the bulk bins at your local Whole Foods or other health-oriented supermarket, or online from a variety of sources.
