Join us for a vegan cheesemaking class and Mediterranean feast featuring Herbed Feta (almond) and Caprese Mozzarella Melt (cashew)!
Learn as Claudia, local cheesemaker and founder of UrbanCheesecraft.com, demonstrates how easy it can be to make your own impressive and custom vegan cheeses. Claudia will share her simplified technique as she makes feta that tastes, cooks, marinates, and crumbles like the real thing, as well as a a crowd-pleasing Caprese mozzarella dip that includes summer tomatoes and basil.
You will learn how you can personalize your cheese with different bases (nuts, seeds, even white beans or even veggies) and add custom flavor with fermented foods, spices and herbs for a signature cheese in about 30 minutes. We will celebrate summer's bounty and serve tasty bites throughout along with a refreshing cucumber mint mocktail.
