MARIN COUNTY, CA. – Acclaimed vegan chef, author and TV host Miyoko Schinner set out to accomplish the seemingly impossible: create a bold new artisan vegan cheese brand that would enable everyone who, for moral and/or health reasons, had given up dairy to once again savor the one food many of them missed the most: cheese. Miyoko’s Creamery line of authentically delectable, real food-based handcrafted vegan cheese introduces Smoked VeganMozz at Summer Fancy Food Show, New York City, Booth #3611.
Smoked VeganMozz is an exciting spin on our original cashew-based Fresh VeganMozz. Our Smoked VeganMozz will inspire your wildest culinary adventures! Made with organic cashews and organic coconut oil, it is made in the traditional style of Italian mozzarella di bufalo, and then smoked for a savory depth of flavor only achieved through traditional wood smoking. Rich, smoky, and creamy, this cheese will elevate any dish from the mundane to the sublime. Slice it up and serve cold in sandwiches, canapes, salads or melt it to make amazing paninis and other dishes. 100% certified organic.
Available at retail beginning August 2017 in an 8-oz. vacuum pack (SRP $8.99).
