Our pistachio vegan cheese is ready🥰
January always feels like one of the slowest months, and it usually takes us a few weeks to get back into a good routine... No sunshine just gets us down in the dumps!
We thought you guys might be feeling the same so this month's cheese has been designed to give you an extra nutritional boost🌿
We have lacto-fermented pistachios and cashews with wheatgrass and spirulina to create this Superfood green cheese, then potted it with a swirl of our best-selling orange and sumac infused cranberries for an extra depth of flavour. Spirulina and Wheatgrass are both super high in essential vitamins and minerals, and the probiotic in our living cheese increases the bioavailability of both.
Find these little pots of goodness in our January sharing platters!

Let's have a conversation about lacto fermentation!🌿🦠
Lactobacilli is the probiotic "good" bacteria that can be found on the surface of raw vegetables (and it just so happens this is the same probiotic that is present in our gut!) Lactobacillus can help the body break down food, absorb nutrients, and fight off "bad" organisms that might cause diseases. When we ferment our vegetables, the lactobacilli multiplies and breaks down the sugars present, creating lactic acid. This gives our ferments their special sour taste, and can help to maximize our bodies ability to absorb nutrients, meaning you're getting as much goodness as possible from our ferments!
This month's ferments are made using turnip, beetroot and garlic along with our special blend of sprouted seeds. Find them as part of our Veganuary sharing platters🌿

Yesterday was B U S Y😵‍💫
After a day of prepping and planning (and dealing with a sourdough starter explosion) we raided our fridge for a wholesome, vegan dish made entirely from leftovers:
🌿Lentil and kidney bean Dahl
🌿 Courgette and sauerkraut fritters (we used our Superfood Sauerkraut combined with a grated courgette and our own Living Kitchen "egg" then gently fried)
🌿 Fermented tomato chutney and red Superfood Sauerkraut salad
All ferments are tucked away all cosy in our fermenting cupboard for your Veganuary sharing platters- keep your eyes peeled for updates!

So we weren't going to share this until tomorrow but it felt like the right time to showcase some vegan comfort food for you all🥰🌿
Our Christmas cheese hampers had a selection of 6 vegan cheeses, so if you're finding your fridge has been taken over by The Living Kitchen, why not use some of them in your cooking?
We made a super smoky and rich vegan cauliflower and broccoli cheese and topped it with some of our own lentil and TVP "haggis" before baking for an extra crispy finish😍
Recipe below:
🌿 Chop half a cauliflower and half a broccoli into florets and boil in salted water for 4 minutes. Drain and set aside.
🌿Melt 50g of vegan butter in a non-stick pan, then add 4 tablespoons of plain flour and stir to combine.
🌿 Cook the flour in the butter for around 1 minute, then slowly add 400ml of plant based milk, stirring to combine and get rid of any lumps.
🌿Add in a pot of our vegan beechwood smoked cashew cheese, a good pinch of salt and a tablespoon of nutritional yeast flakes.
🌿Let the sauce cook down for a few minutes until it thickens, then add your cauliflower and broccoli florets and transfer into a baking dish
🌿Top with breadcrumbs (or in our case, vegan lentil and TVP haggis) and bake at 220 for 25-30 minutes
Recipe for our vegan haggis will be coming in the next few days so keep your eyes peeled 👀

Happy NYE!🎉
This time last year I was just beginning to plan The Living Kitchen- I actually thought of the name in the middle of the night and had to get out of bed to make a note of it!
I've learned so much this year and I am so thankful that even after two months I have such an amazing network of customers that I can share my ideas and creations with. You're all wonderful and I'm excited to share with you our plans for 2022! 🥰🌿
In the meantime, here are some of my favourite experiments and creations from The Living Kitchen's 2021🌿
You will have the chance to try all of these and more over the coming months, just keep your eyes on the page!
I hope you all have a wonderful NYE, whether you're partying, hibernating or sleeping! - Melissa x
