    Mixed with tofu, a squeeze of lemon, sea salt and Italian herbs to make vegan ricotta. I used this to make lasagne-along with Follow Your Heart parmesan-and I honestly could not tell the difference between that vegan lasagne and the old cheese lasagne I used to make. I was so sad when I'd eaten it all I wanted to make another one immediately, but I'm holding off for a couple of weeks so I don't get tired of it. And you know what else tastes like chicken? Red lentils. I made red lentil soup and could not believe how much it tasted like chicken soup. They have a completely different flavor than green or black lentils.

    Hi there!
    Two out of my three dogs have skin allergies to grasses and other plants. They get itchy dry patches and their hair falls out in patches. I started putting nooch on their dry food and within about three weeks their hair grew back. Their coats are shinier, eyes are brighter, and they are more playful and full of energy. I would highly recommend for any sickly, underweight or older 🐕. Will improve their quality of life. I got the idea when I saw yeast tablets in the pet vitamin section in the store.I compared ingredients that they are basically the same except the vitamin tablets have filler and binders to make them a certain size and keep the tablet sticking together. All of my dogs love the taste. They mow it down even if it's on a dogfood brand they don't usually like much.

  • @heatherbicknell1523

    For soup, I like to mix it with some water or broth (~1/3 cup nooch in 2 cups water for a 10-12 cup soup recipe) and let it settle for a few minutes so the sludge falls to the bottom. When it's time to add it to the soup, I pour the stock out carefully so the sediment stays behind. You're left with a clear yellow liquid that gives a slightly more appealing look/texture. Miso's another great flavor-booster you could cover :)

  • @willowraevynwood865
    @willowraevynwood865 5 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    I used Nooch once to replace yellow miso. I was making something and realized that I forgot to pick up the yellow miso that it called for. So I took some soy sauce and some Nooch and created a paste. Since it was the 1st time I had made the recipe, I couldn't tell if the flavor had changed since it didn't have the miso. However, when I made the recipe again w/ the miso, I could say the flavor wasn't that much different. I actually liked the Nooch paste version better...particularly since finding miso in my grocery store can be hit and miss.

    For all those who don't like nutritional yeast and/or are asking about brands, here's my experience. I tried the most readily available ones, such as Bragg's and KAL. Didn't like them at all. Figured out that those are fortified with B vitamins and all I tasted was B vitamins. I now buy UN-fortified. There are several brands - Sari and Frontier come to mind and taste just about the same to me. They are mildly nutty tasting, not really cheesy but add a nice savory note to things. They do work well in vegan "cheese" sauces. Bottom line: Try UNFORTIFIED.

    • @corndo9
      @corndo9 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Same here. You may be reacting to the glutamate or the synthetic vitamins added. Glutamate is naturally occurring in many foods, but that doesn't change the fact that some people unfortunately react to it. Some people also react negatively to synthetic b vitamins, especially folic acid. I'm definitely not suggesting synthetic vitamins are bad, they work great for some people, some other people are just unlucky that way. All nutritional yeast has glutamate, but there are a few brands without vitamins added. I've had success with the latter, so that might be worth a try if you want to still use nutritional yeast at home in case you're only reacting to the folic acid or other added vitamins.

    I feel like I'm the only vegan who isn't in love with nutritional yeast 😅 like I'll add it to recipes, but I can't get with eating it on its own.

    • @MioMaiaRaia
      @MioMaiaRaia 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Mikayla it’s definitely an acquired taste and texture. It took me awhile to come around to it because I was expecting something akin to grated Parmesan but nooch is kind of its own thing

    I cannot get on board with tempeh- idk if it’s the texture or what but I will ALWAYS go with tofu instead. Any tips for that would be great!

    • @MSchipper
      @MSchipper 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      I don't remember who it was, but a youtuber suggested this recipe: cut the tempeh into strips. Boil it in some stock seasoned with some soy sauce, chili flakes and garlic powder (the liquid should just cover the tempeh) until the liquid has evaporated. That should take about 20 minutes. When that's done, let it cool, pat dry and bake or fry it. I've tried it and it's delicious that way!

  • @johncrwarner
    @johncrwarner 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I have seen and bought small quantities of flaked and powdered nutritional yeast - and firstly they do taste different and some have more flavour than others - more umami taste and so better than others for making a "cheesy" sauce etc.
    I have also heard folks say you "shouldn't" use nutritional yeast with tomato based dishes - most of my dishes do involve tomatoes - is there a clash of flavours or something?

  • @VivaLaBOUNCYx5

    I'm still iffy about Nutritional Yeast... I was so excited to try it and purchased the Braggs version since everyone recommends it. I sprinkled it in a spaghetti dish, it tasted great but I felt horrible afterwards. It made me get a stomach ache and it took me days to feel better. Is there any way to get something similar to it? I've read that there are people who are sensitive to Nooch. I'm sure I am :/

    • @corndo9
      @corndo9 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hey, I hope it's ok for me to copy paste most of a comment I left in reply to someone else. I had this problem, too, and I really wish I'd had this info sooner, so if it's helpful to anyone else, I want to share it: You may be reacting to the glutamate or the synthetic vitamins added. Glutamate is naturally occurring in many foods, but that doesn't change the fact that some people unfortunately react to it. Some people also react negatively to synthetic b vitamins, especially folic acid. I'm definitely not suggesting synthetic vitamins are bad, they work great for some people, some other people are just unlucky that way. All nutritional yeast has glutamate, but there are a few brands without vitamins added. I've had success with the latter, so that might be worth a try if you want to still use nutritional yeast at home in case you're only reacting to the folic acid or other added vitamins. Braggs is one of the brands that has vitamins added and at least in my area I haven't found any brands at local stores that don't have that even though I live in a big city in the US with a lot of vegan options in general, and I had to buy it online.

    • @VivaLaBOUNCYx5
      @VivaLaBOUNCYx5 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      O thank you for this helpful info! Is it possible you have any brands you can recommend? I’m interested in trying it but after my first time I’m hesitant since I’m sensitive to it. I never knew about that ingredient. I’m going to look more info about it! Thanks again! :)

    I try to avoid anything with yeast in it, including bread (for bread, mostly I eat Food For Life Ezekiel 4:9 tortillas, solid sprouted grains, they're awesome). I am not at all persuaded yeast can actually be nutritional but I could be wrong.

    • @adriennebroomes5476
      @adriennebroomes5476 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I like nutritional yeast in many savory things but it definitely ruins my vegan cheese experience in most cases. It doesn’t remind me of cheese at all. I’m a dairy cheese-aholic and people will say it has that nutty flavor and I’m like you all are the nutty part of that statement because dairy cheese doesn’t taste like nuts- like at all🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

      Maybe because a particular plant grows there that can be used to curdle the milk. I don't know the English name for it, but it's also used to make vegetarian cheese.
