Hey, three pounds is a lot of Teese…so expect to see a few more Teese goodies here. I’ve been wanting to bake more breads, because I really don’t have a lot of experience with it. Then I ran across this recipe. It reminded me of the cheese breads I ate in Italy many years ago and seemed like a good way to use up some Teese. All I did is swap out Teese for regular cheese in the recipe. Since the recipe’s already posted online, I’ll just give you a few pics of the process.
Oh yeah, and dinner one night was teese bread dipped in pizza sauce with spinach so we could pretend we were eating healthy.

Teese Pizzas
We finally busted into that Teese log this weekend. First, we tried a bit cold straight off the log. Not bad! The taste is very similar to a mild mozzarella, well, as far as I can remember. 🙂 The texture was a little softer than Vegan Gourmet, but it had been sitting at room temperature for a while. Here’s a weird thing…when handling it to grate, it’s REALLY oiling feeling on your hands. But, it doesn’t really taste that way, cold or hot. They are not lying. It totally melts! We cooked these pizzas at 425 degrees F and at about 18 minutes we started getting some melting going on, but the bottoms were going to get too brown so we finished under the broiler. And as you can see, it melted up just fine!

Verdict? A++++ Would buy again! Next up, I’m going to try quesadillas with it.
