Always love a trip to the The Twisted Branch… amazing selection of highest quality olive oils and vinegars on tap. And an incredible selection of teas to sit and enjoy outside. Thank you for your bread recommendations too Dawn, will check those out! (Side note, I’m looking for good bread bakeries if anyone else knows of any I should try).

My yogurt obsession continues. I’ve begun exploring fermentation recipes at home and it’s so fascinating. I did my first experiment this week and it turned into a beautiful fail. lol. I say that because I misunderstood a step in the actual yogurt making process recipe, but was still able to create a more fluid version of a fermented vegan yogurt which I then turned into a cilantro cashew yogurt dressing/sauce that turned out fantastic!

I can’t really share the fermentation steps here since I didn’t actually master them yet, but I can tell you that the dressing ingredients included soaked cashews, lemon juice, mustard, nutritional yeast, a bit of olive oil, a pinch of salt, a clove of garlic and a generous bunch of cilantro of course. It turned out fabulous!

I’ll have to continue experimenting with the fermentation but this was definitely a happy accident along the way that I wanted to share. If you have some tips on this topic, please share!

Finally found a store bought vegan yogurt I like! It does have a coconut base (so great texture), but no intense coconut after taste. The berry and vanilla non dairy yogurts definitely worked for me, after trying so many different brands. At last!!! And now to go dump all the half eaten other ones from my fridge that I couldn’t even finish. lol.
