HERBED CHEESE SPREAD
Tastes just like the expensive Boursin® cheese spread you buy at the store. Reduced-fat cream cheese works well in this recipe. Delicious spread on crackers or as a fill on celery sticks. Good shelf life in the refrigerator. This can be eaten right way, but it's best if refrigerated for at least one day before serving.

HERBED CASHEW CHEESE SPREAD RECIPE - (4.4/5)
Provided by SpartyGreenMom
Number Of Ingredients 11
Steps:
- Mix probiotic powder with water and stir. Add probiotic mixture to blender, add cashews. Blend at low speed and gradually increase speed and blend until smooth. Spoon mixture into a nut bag or cheesecloth. Squeeze and place in strainer and leave to ferment for up to 8 to 12 hours. Time required to ferment will differ depending on how warm it is. Do not ferment beyond 12 hours as it may become rancid. Once fermentation process is complete, spoon cheese from nut bag into bowl. Add remaining ingredients, stir well together. Place in mini 4.5 inch spring form pan. Press well and leave in fridge for at least 6-8 hrs to mold to the spring form and so flavours are more enhanced. Turn upside down, release from pan and sprinkle with dried herbs. Nut cheese is very dense with the nuts, so only use a little for portions. Cashew cheese is also delicious used when making wraps, spread some cashew cheese spread over the wrap or lettuce leaf, add vegetables and sprouts, perhaps a little salsa.
Tips:
- Choose fresh herbs: Fresh herbs impart the best flavor to your cheese spread. If you can, use herbs from your garden or a local farmers' market.
- Use a variety of herbs: Don't be afraid to experiment with different herb combinations. Some popular choices include basil, chives, dill, oregano, parsley, rosemary, and thyme.
- Chop the herbs finely: Finely chopped herbs will distribute their flavor more evenly throughout the cheese spread.
- Use a good quality cheese: The type of cheese you use will have a big impact on the flavor of your spread. Choose a cheese that is flavorful and has a good melting quality, such as cream cheese, cheddar, or goat cheese.
- Season to taste: Be sure to taste your cheese spread before serving and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more herbs, salt, or pepper.
Conclusion:
Herbed cheese spread is a delicious and versatile appetizer or snack that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own personal taste. With a little creativity, you can create a cheese spread that is sure to impress your guests.
