Instructions

Step 1
To make the parmesan, in a food processor, grind/pulse the nuts into a fine meal. If making the full recipe, it is best to pulse each type of nut separately. Note: Do not over pulse the nuts, or they will become greasy and turn into more of a nut butter.
Step 2
If adding pine nuts, pulse them last — just pulse a few times and then add the nutritional yeast, garlic and onion powder, and salt — this helps to absorb some of the oil from the pine nuts making them easier to blend.
Step 3
Lastly, mix all of the ingredients together and toss to combine.
Step 4
*Note: The amount of onion and garlic powder, as well as the amount of salt, can be adjusted according to your tastes. This particular mix is quite heavy on all 3, but since only a small amount is typically used at any given time, we think it’s a good mix.
Step 5
This mixture will last for several weeks in the refrigerator. It also freezes extremely well, which is why we recommend making such a big batch.
Step 6
Feel free to substitute for other nuts and take into consideration their own unique oiliness. Macadamia nuts and pecans for example.
