I took a look at Ricki's version and the one on Vegetarian Times which only use 1 cup almonds. I think I'll give it a try like that next time to compare.Melhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10057980932079998162noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-84956895040957117852012-06-12T00:21:16.082+10:002012-06-12T00:21:16.082+10:00Thanks Laura - I thought I got it in just in time ...Thanks Laura - I thought I got it in just in time - esp as the linky was still open but it is often hard to work out timing of blog events closing with all the time differences between Australia and the rest of the world :-)Johanna GGGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08594201473931487490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-4470877591794192762012-06-12T00:20:09.349+10:002012-06-12T00:20:09.349+10:00Thanks Kath - I didn't think about the almonds...Thanks Kath - I didn't think about the almonds fermenting at the time but have since seen a chickpea cheese recipe where they seem to ferment with the addition of miso - I think the lemon juice does some of the fermentation sort of tang here but am not sureJohanna GGGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08594201473931487490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-12683798577475461152012-06-12T00:19:11.909+10:002012-06-12T00:19:11.909+10:00Thanks Shauna - definitely worth a try if you love...Thanks Shauna - definitely worth a try if you love almonds (even better if you have a decent blender unlike me!)Johanna GGGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08594201473931487490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-43188304706961439532012-06-12T00:18:18.345+10:002012-06-12T00:18:18.345+10:00Thanks Sophie - I wish I had a vitamix when it com...Thanks Sophie - I wish I had a vitamix when it comes to these recipes - this feta is versatile - though I found it doesn't pair well with jam on toast :-(Johanna GGGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08594201473931487490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-48918019421970520902012-06-11T06:48:14.706+10:002012-06-11T06:48:14.706+10:00Hi again, just checked and think that your entry m...Hi again, just checked and think that your entry must have come in after I had posted the round up and then I went off on holiday so haven't been able to access my website for over a week.
