pasta and cashew cheeseI was just going to make the block of cashew cheese from 101 Cookbooks but was pretty hungry and decided to go for the full pasta and cheese bonanza. But only a fraction of the melted cheese was used. I really, really (really) wanted to try and make a block of cheese that melts.

As I was making it, I noticed it smelled very sweet… I eventually realized that I had used the wrong milk. I only ever have Natura original flavour on hand which contains, apparently, cane sugar. Plus, I always ignore the words “unsweetened soy milk” in recipes and now it’s come back to bite me in the ass. So it was barely edible, and I had to dump the rest. Fine, lesson learned. I’ve since stocked the pantry with 2 cartons of unsweetened soy milk. Now I’ll have no excuse to fuck up mac and cheese.

But what to do with this sweet cheese in the meantime? I bought some puff pastry and will come up with some sort of kludge… possibly a danish. Puff pastry isn’t traditionally used in this sort of dessert, so one can only hope two wrongs make a right. Right?

The mighty wedge…
