Gluten-Free Vegan 101 Review - Gluten-Free Vegan Mozzarella Cheese (Malaysia)


Gluten-Free Vegan 101 Review - Gluten-Free Vegan Mozzarella Cheese




From the pan to the pen, here is the Gluten-Free Vegan Baker's review of one of the current gluten-free vegan products available in Malaysia.  This review is dedicated to all vegans in Malaysia and beyond who are also in a gluten-free diet.  For the sake of all vegans, this review will make no reference or comparisons to non-vegan products.


Follow Your Heart Vegan Gourmet Mozzarella Cheese Alternative

(Ingredients (vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free, non-gmo): filtered water, organic expeller-pressed soybean oil, organic soymilk powder (organic soybeans), natural flavors (plant sources), inulin (chicory root extract), agar agar, sea salt, organic soy protein, lactic acid (vegetable source).)


Aroma & Taste:  Follow Your Heart Vegan Gourmet Mozzarella cheese has a very mild soy aroma and taste almost to the point of being bland which I didn't mind at all.  Mozzarella is a kind of cheese that's meant to play a supporting role in any dish.   But that I mean, it's complementary and not meant to overpower the flavor of the dishes.  Follow Your Heart Vegan Gourmet Mozzarella cheese complements a lot of my dishes like pizzas, sandwiches, baked potatoes and eggplant slices and I was adequately pleased with it.


Appearance & Texture:  This particular vegan Mozzarella cheese is a block cheese that can be easily sliced and grated.  It has a very creamy texture and takes a longer time to melt.   At different times, this cheese seems soggy and too watery and tends to spoil easily. 

Price:  This vegan Mozzarella cheese is just as expensive as the Follow Your Heart Dairy Free Parmesan Cheese.

Verdict:  I appreciate that Follow Your Heart Vegan Gourmet Mozzarella cheese is now 84% organic from being 81% organic and that it also provides Omega-3.  I liked how this vegan Mozzarella cheese worked quite nicely with my dishes and didn't change their overall flavor and texture.  However, the results were inconsistent and as a whole, I consider Follow Your Heart Vegan Gourmet Mozzarella cheese to be subpar.  I had high hopes for this product but I was left wanting more.  Furthermore, the soggy and watery texture and the price make it unacceptable for me.  So without a shadow of a doubt, it's a 100% No More for Follow Your Heart Vegan Gourmet Mozzarella cheese.  I can live and enjoy the rest of my gluten-free vegan life without vegan Mozzarella cheese until a new product comes my way...  For anyone who doesn't mind a challenge no matter what the consequence, go ahead and try this product.
