Do you have a favorite vegan cheese recipe? What type of cheese does it make, like a cheddar, mozzarella, parmesan...?

Adorkable rockstar!
Rice noodle with teriyaki chicken (may wah) and broccoli, shallots, garlic and lots of spices. Sriracha on mine.
This is only the second time I have made it, and it came out better taste-wise this time. It's a basic cheese recipe, so no specific flavor. It's tangy, though, and I like it. This is the recipe I used, but I skipped the carrot (added too much sweetness to it) and used refined coconut oil. I detest coconut, and the unrefined oil called for in the recipe left a slight coconut flavor. It wasn't horrible, but the refined is much better, much more neutral. It's cashew-based, and it slices, even though I'd classify as a soft cheese. The agar agar powder really helps bind it, along with coconut oil. It also shreds, though it doesn't melt into one glob, say, like on a pizza. But it does melt. And it spreads.
Do you get the organic, raw cashews from Costco? They're such a deal, I check every time I'm there!
I just copied this recipe. I feel I've done everything but a tofu base, so trying this next

I bought this pasta 
again. It tastes similar to a dish I had in a vegan restaurant back in December in London, except a fraction of the price. I looked up how they served it and it was with pumpkin seeds on top. I'm going to have it with steamed broccoli and then I'm going to warm up pumpkin seeds with olive oil and butter and sea salt and put them on top of the pasta.

Instead of using eggs in the batter, it calls for ginger beer, soda water & two types of flour. I found this certified vegan ginger beer a few weeks ago that'll be perfect in the batter & to drink with the finished meal. 
yesterday afternoon I watched Gaz Oakley make sauerkraut and it made my mouth water and so for dinner we had Italian Field Roast sausage on a bun with lots of sauerkraut - baked potatoes on the side and some nuts and choc chips for dessert
btw - I will never buy russet potatoes again - finally finished a 10lb bag and find they are just so dense that they are not easy to cook and I love to leave the skins on potatoes and they are just so tough.... I usually buy white or red potatoes however I now have a bag of yellow potatoes and I had a few of them in with the last of russets last night - they were sooooo much better and I wished I had done more of them
what kind of potatoes do most of you prefer?

I usually have Maris Piper potatoes. I do sometimes just buy what we call here baking potatoes which are for the oven.
apparently the equivalent here are called Yukon Gold potatoes and they are similar to the yellow potatoes

I, uuhhh.... tend to buy whatever variety is on sale and in good condition. But I love all potatoes: Russet, Red, White, Yellow.... Recently, at the local farmer's market, I actually got blue potatoes!!!! I didn't taste-test the blue ones by eating a bite of one at the same time as a different kind, but I liked them just as much as any other kind. I think the blue color is due to those anthocyanin pigments I've been reading about lately, which would supposedly be good to get more of- but I'd have to check.
I bake Russetts, but boil/steam the other kinds. I eat the peels of all of them.

Jersey Royals, baking potatoes or any British potato. I dislike red potatoes.

Zatarain's jambalaya. I added sausage, black beans, tomatoes, onion and garlic.
That is so interesting! I've always preferred russets for everything, but every now and then will try reds or yellow. I just bought Yukon Golds and had them mashed. I hated them! I liked that I could leave the skins on, which I don't with mashed russets, but they had a sweetness I couldn't get past. Also had the texture I don't like
I made mushroom seitan, broccoli and the mashed potatoes with mushroom gravy. My son who normally loves the mushroom seitan said it was terrible. Literally spit it out! So freaking weird as that's one thing I always make the same way!
. I thought it was fine, but the gravy and broccoli were the best!Dr Greger highly approves of the blue/purple potatoes! He doesn't even recommend regular ones, just the purple/blue and sweet potatoes
