Don’t worry- I know many people say that rejuvelac is supposed to smell “tangy,” but mine was definitely pretty rank. I would never dream of just drinking it, but it worked beautifully in all the recipes, just as hoped. My only advice is to give it a try! The worst that can happen is that you waste some ingredients. It does suck when it happens, but its not the end of the world. :)

This a great post; thanks for sharing! I have the cookbook and have tried twice, unsuccessfully, to make rejuvalec! My millet never sprouted…made me think my grains were too old. And I tried with buckwheat groats and they didn’t seem to sprout either. Also, I feel foolish for asking this, but did it smell awful? Mine was pretty gross smelling. I ordered some a few days ago, but would really love to make my own moving forward. If you have any tips I would appreciate it!! Thanks!

Fantastic review Hannah! I picked up a copy last week and I’m now dying to start making some of these recipes. The provolone wouldn’t have been my first choice but after reading your description, it’s at the top of the list.

wow..Your photos make all the cheese look tempting. I’m in this cheese craze now..Though its more like eating and not the making. the zucchini flowers pizza looks really delicious. I feel like taking a bite out of it! the smoked provolone looks amazing too..I can only imagine how it taste.

Now I feel like buying this book. There’s so many on a market and it’s so difficult to decide. Thank you!

Hi Hannah,
This is the best review I have seen on Artisan Vegan Cheese. You navigate the book, describe some of the processes, offer details of your experiences from several recipes, and share phenomenal photos, as always. I really appreciate your honesty in the taste/texture comments. I can’t wait to add this to my collection now.
Thanks so much and hope all is well!
