"This is a great spread for vegetarians and also a lovely dairy free cheese alternative for lactose intolerant cheese lovers. This can be served as a spread, or rolled into balls, and then rolled into chives to make a lovely little alternative cheese balls. Herbs, chives, spices or garlic could be added to this cheese for a little more flavor if you wanted. This cheese will keep well in the fridge for 5 days. "From Australian Macadamia's""

Step by Step Method

Step 1

Place the macadamias in a bowl and cover with the water.; set aside for 6 hours.

Step 2

Drain macadamias and rinse well; place into a food processor.

Step 3

Add the lemon juice, salt and pepper to macadamia's and blend to combine; add the extra water and process until smooth, scraping down the sides in between processing.

Step 4

Wrap the macadamia cheese in muslin (I use a new, fresh, clean chux) and place into a colander over a bowl large enough to catch any excess liquid.

Place in the fridge overnight.
