Recipe!

One addition I had to make to this was that I added 3 tablespoons of nooch. I could not have gone without it! It's amazing. I added a hint of sriracha while eating it as well. Would recommend!

    There are good vegan deli slices and vegan cheese sauces, but no vegan cheeses that are so good on their own that you'd put them on a cheese board.

    Also you can't melt the deli slices into cheese sauce, they're actually completely different things.

      There absolutely are cheese board worthy vegan cheeses, I've had them and as someone who really really really loved fancy cheeses prior to being vegan, what I've had slapped milk cheese out of the water. However, what I had was very local and didn't keep long. I'm not exactly sure what they did and they didn't wanna tell anyone

          I tried to pry them based on pretending to care about allergies and it seems potato starch is the key and they're generally nut based. I have a vague idea of what to do but generally haven't had the time or equipment to fuck around. It's also based on my guessing pretty labor intensive.

        There's a local couple that hits up farmers markets in town from time to time thar make earth shattering vegan fancy cheeses. It's totally something that exists, but I can admit it's rare.
