Vegan Cashew Yogurt Recipe - How To Make Cashew Curd Without Probiotic Capsules

Cashew yogurt/curd is another alternative to dairy curd. Cashew curd can be easily made at home without any probiotic capsules. Naturally fermented cashew curd is a good source of probiotics.

 

Ingredients:

1 cup raw cashew nuts

1 cup + ¼ cup water

2 tbsp vegan starter (either peanut curd or coconut curd)

 

Notes:

If you don’t have a starter; you can add 3 green chilies along with the stalk in the milk. Remove the chilli stalks and add in. It will help to ferment the curd, but will take around 20 – 24 hours to set curd. Once the curd is set you can use it as a starter to set the next set of curd.

The cashew milk is slightly thick as it is to make curd however if you prefer thinner milk/curd you can add ¼ cup water to the milk.

Adjust the starter to your sour taste.

Heating the milk prevents contamination by other bacteria, another option would be to blend with hot water.
