🌱 What’s Inside the Mix

Your Tamzine Smoked Cheddar Cheese Kit includes:

• Cheese Base Blend (garbanzo powder, lentil powder, potato starch, nutritional yeast, bouillon, garlic, onion, turmeric, smoked paprika, salt)

• Smoked Cheddar Seasoning Packet (natural smoke flavor, warm spices, and cheddar‑style tang to create the signature smoky profile)

Everything is dry, shelf‑stable, and made from whole‑food ingredients.

🥄 What You Add

• 1 cup water (for a 1‑lb kit)

• 1 tbsp oil (optional, for a richer, smoother smoked cheddar)

Oil is not included in the kit. Add any oil you prefer.

⭐ How to Make It

(Simple, foolproof, and designed for perfect texture)

1. Mix the Cheese Base

In a medium saucepan, whisk together:

• the entire dry cheese packet

• 1 cup water

• 1 tbsp oil (optional)

Whisk until smooth.

2. Heat Until Thick (3–5 minutes)

Place over medium heat. Stir constantly until the mixture becomes:

• thick

• glossy

• smooth

• pudding‑like

This step activates the natural starches and forms the smoked cheddar structure.

3. Pour Into a Mold

Use a loaf pan, square container, or silicone mold. Smooth the top with a spatula.

4. Chill Overnight

Refrigerate 8–12 hours to fully set into a firm, sliceable block.

5. Slice & Enjoy

Once chilled, the cheese will slice cleanly and hold its shape. Perfect for:

• charcuterie boards

• sandwiches

• grilled cheese

• baked potatoes

• fall and winter dishes

• pairing with Tamzine deli loaves

Smoked Cheddar is your artisan cheddar — warm, savory, and deeply aromatic.

⭐ 2‑lb Kit Instructions
