I have no words…this recipe that came out of nowhere, makes an incredible mozzarella that tastes how I remember dairy buffalo mozzarella tasting, only better! Just go make this. Like, now. It’s so easy to make and it will impress everyone.
400gr plain soy yogurt
1/4 cup virgin coconut oil, liquified
1 cup water
2 tbsp agar powder
2 tbsp tapioca starch
1 tsp pectin
1/4 tsp guar gum or xanthan gum
Place agar and water in a pot and let it boil for about 5 minutes, or until the agar is completely dissolved. Remove from heat, add in tapioca starch and whisk. Transfer it in a blender, and add the rest of the ingredients, except the coconut oil. Blend until smooth and with the blender running, slowly pour in the coconut oil.
To shape the mozzarella balls, you will need a bowl filled with cold water, 1tbsp salt and ice cubes. Using an ice cream scoop, take some of the mixture and drop it in the water. Do this with all the mixture. The mozzarella will harden instantly, but let it sit in there for a minute or two. Using a slotted spoon transfer the balls in a container, without piling them on top of each other. Keep in the fridge until you are ready to serve.
Oh, and did I mention you can make an amazing mascarpone cheese, for let’s say tiramisu? Just use only 1tsp of the agar powder and after blending you are done!
Thanks for sharing this fantastic recipe! Have a great Saturday!
Delicious!!!!!
Is it possible to place soy yogurt with oat, rice or almond yogurt?
I haven’t tried it but I don’t see why not. Although it will taste different…Let me know how it works out if you try it!
I love this! Can’t wait to try this and make a caprese. YUMMY!!
Super delicious!
I so need to make this
How long do they keep for?

Looks great! Gorgeous photos. Do you think it would melt decently?
What a happy accident! The texture of this “mozzarella” looks perfect! I’m going to have to try this ASAP!
Mmmm I think it would get melty and creamy, but haven’t tried it. It’s really really good fresh in salad!
Yes, you do! I would say for about a week it’s good.
My oh my, one of the things I miss the most is cheese, so THANK YOU for this!
Hey!
This recipe looks fantastic! Do you think it might possible to replace the tapioca starch by corn starch or potato starch? I can’t get tapioca starch around here
Yes totally!
Oy, maybe I did something wrong, but it did not work out for me. I used unsweetened plain soy yogurt and my concoction just ended up tasting vile, just like chemicals and flour. Any helpful hints?
I am sorry to hear that Stefanie. Did you follow the recipe as it is? what brand of soy yogurt did you use?
