vegan cheese: I'm looking for some vegan cheese (it's hard to find it without casein in it!) and some vegan "egg" replacement. I can't find it in the "Nature's Promise" section at the local stop and shop. Any ideas where I can find this? I don't like ordering things online either! (I live in R.I. if that helps anyone.) Thanks.|||There is a cheese called Vegan Gourmet(follow your heart brand). Can't say anything but good things about it. We purchase it at Sunflower Market. If you don't have those there try Sprouts perhaps. Egg Replacements There are plenty of egg substitutes available for baking or preparing a dish that calls for eggs. Ener-G Egg Replacer is a reliable egg substitute for use in baking. It is available at health food stores and most grocery stores. Tofu: Tofu is great for egg substitutions in recipes that call for a lot of eggs, like quiches or custards. To replace one egg in a recipe, purée 1/4 cup soft tofu. It is important to keep in mind that although tofu doesn’t fluff up like eggs, it does create a texture that is perfect for “eggy” dishes. Tofu is also a great substitute for eggs in eggless egg salad and breakfast scrambles. In Desserts and Sweet, Baked Goods: Try substituting one banana or 1/4 cup applesauce for each egg called for in a recipe for sweet, baked desserts. These will add some flavor to the recipe, so make sure bananas or apples are compatible with the other flavors in the dessert. Other Egg Replacement Options • 1 egg = 2 Tbsp. potato starch • 1 egg = 1/4 cup mashed potatoes • 1 egg = 1/4 cup canned pumpkin or squash • 1 egg = 1/4 cup puréed prunes • 1 egg = 2 Tbsp. water + 1 Tbsp. oil + 2 tsp. baking powder • 1 egg = 1 Tbsp. ground flax seed simmered in 3 Tbsp. water • 1 egg white = 1 Tbsp. plain agar powder dissolved in 1 Tbsp. water, whipped, chilled, and whipped again Egg Replacement Tips • If a recipe calls for three or more eggs, it is important to choose a replacer that will perform the same function (i.e., binding or leavening). • Trying to replicate airy baked goods that call for a lot of eggs, such as angel food cake, can be very difficult. Instead, look for a recipe with a similar taste but fewer eggs, which will be easier to replicate. • When adding tofu to a recipe as an egg replacer, be sure to purée it first to avoid chunks in the finished product. • Be sure to use plain tofu, not seasoned or baked, as a replacer. • Powdered egg replacers cannot be used to create egg recipes such as scrambles or omelets. Tofu is the perfect substitute for eggs in these applications. • If you want a lighter texture and you’re using fruit purées as an egg substitute, add an extra 1/2 tsp. baking powder. Fruit purées tend to make the final product denser than the original recipe. • If you’re looking for an egg replacer that binds, try adding 2 to 3 Tbsp. of any of the following for each egg: tomato paste, potato starch, arrowroot powder, whole wheat flour, mashed potatoes, mashed sweet potatoes, instant potato flakes, or 1/4 cup tofu puréed with 1 Tbsp. flour.|||You can make a cheesy tasting sauce with nutritional yeast (not bakers or brewers yeast) and you can use ground flax and water as an egg substitute when baking. You can also buy EnerG egg replacer at most health food stores. You can get the nutritional yeast at the health food store as well. I like KAL brand best.|||Do you have Holland & Barret health stores in R I ? you can buy cheezly by the redwood comp, they have different flavours, garlic and herb, mature, super melting and mexican style. Egg replacer ,by Allergycare is sold there too. It can only be used for cakes and biscuits, not quiches you need to use silken tofu for that. hope that helps. Try ordering online it's great nothing to be scared of!|||Check out this site for veggie restaurants and health food shops near you. One of the big vegan cheese brands in the States is Follow Your Heart. And a big brand of egg replacer is EnerG Egg replacer. Many well stocked supermarkets carry these products now, but it does depend on where you live.|||I kind of don't think Stop & Shop would carry this kind of item. You need to find the Whole Foods Market near you, or similar store. They carry soy cheese, and some may be vegan. I know they carry Follow Your Heart Vegenaise, which is awesome.|||There's one brand of Cheese available in India which is 100% vegetarian. Its known as "Amul Cheese" & tastes great.
