The vegusto is good - I tried it as cheese on toast and burnt it which was very annoying. It has a good meltiness and browns on top but am wondering how well it would go on a bake that was in the oven for quite a while - vegan cheese seems to dry out much easier - and it didn't have strings which is one think I love in mozzarella. It has that slightly grainy texture that most vegan cheeses have when cold so I think I preferred it melted and gooey.Johanna GGGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08594201473931487490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-48715137936371677462014-04-09T23:03:50.706+10:002014-04-09T23:03:50.706+10:00Thanks Shaheen - I quite like the vegusto - still ...Thanks Shaheen - I quite like the vegusto - still want to experiment more - but I liked the meltiness - hope you enjoy your tortillas tonightJohanna GGGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08594201473931487490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-20155450004685357132014-04-09T23:02:46.962+10:002014-04-09T23:02:46.962+10:00Thanks Katie - vegie puree feels a much healthier ...Thanks Katie - vegie puree feels a much healthier way of sticking together the tortillas compared to using cheese to stick it togetherJohanna GGGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08594201473931487490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-67581559319319880152014-04-09T22:58:50.718+10:002014-04-09T22:58:50.718+10:00Thanks Louise - it has been a long time between qu...Thanks Louise - it has been a long time between quesadillas for me too - always a nice surprise to have everything needed for a recipe to throw in - I thought the sweet potatoes too sweet so I added white miso and smoked paprika - it made a difference!Johanna GGGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08594201473931487490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-34762972175385508482014-04-09T22:57:22.617+10:002014-04-09T22:57:22.617+10:00Thanks Cakelaw - yes I love mexican food - though ...Thanks Cakelaw - yes I love mexican food - though I don't like too spicy which means home made is great for meJohanna GGGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08594201473931487490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-60072245449563874422014-04-09T22:55:34.994+10:002014-04-09T22:55:34.994+10:00Thanks Astra Libra - how lovely to hear you are st...Thanks Astra Libra - how lovely to hear you are still reading and how lovely to have you blogging again - will look forward to catching up on your blog Johanna GGGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08594201473931487490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-79798188525495534872014-04-09T22:52:10.592+10:002014-04-09T22:52:10.592+10:00Thanks Elizabeth - honestly I just couldn't im...Thanks Elizabeth - honestly I just couldn't imagine not being vegetarian - and the internet makes it so much easier to find great veg recipes - feeling better now thanksJohanna GGGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08594201473931487490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-22446659865115391592014-04-09T22:50:40.537+10:002014-04-09T22:50:40.537+10:00Thanks Veganopoulous - Quesadillas is a meal I rar...Thanks Veganopoulous - Quesadillas is a meal I rarely think of but it is so simple - sylvia wouldn't even have one with cheese in it but I insisted that I heat her tortilla on the frypan (which she then let cool) so I know about super fussy!!!!
