Equipment

  • High speed blender, spice grinder or coffee grinder

Ingredients
  

  • 2/3rds cup nutritional yeast
  • 2/3rds cup raw walnuts Can be substituted for sesame seeds, pine nuts, or hemp seeds.
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ¼ tsp sea salt

Instructions
 

  • Roughly chop your walnuts if they are in whole halves to break them down a bit.
  • Add all your ingredients to a spice grinder, coffee grinder or high speed blender. Pulse for only a couple of seconds. Check to see whether your parmesan is already the right texture, almost like a gritty powder. If you need to blend for another couple of seconds go ahead.
    These times may vary depending of the type of equipment you are using. The reason it's vital you're careful with this process and do it incrementally is because if you over-blend, those oils from your nuts will start clumping and sticking and the whole thing will turn into a clump.
    So, go slowly and keep checking texture. If you have leftovers you can put them in an air-tight container and refrigerate for up to 2 weeks.
