Why throw the flavory cooking water from the potatoes and carrots away, just to add bland, tasteless fresh water to the mix afterwards? No knowledgeable chef would do that!
I am failing to see how carrots and potatoes are going to taste like cheese. I could see how they might have the consistency of a cheese sauce, but there is no way it will taste cheesy or work as a cheese sauce substitute.
Surprised to see this sort of thing in a more mainstream context, but there are a ton of variations and versions of this sort of thing. Soaked raw cashews blended in a similar way are a fantastic creamy base that I first saw in more traditional Indian cooking but has moved into vegan circles as well. It's fun to explore the other qualities and properties foods can have in home cooking, vegan or not!
THEY FOUGHT THRU HELL FOR 11 MINUTES!
Yuck! I’d rather have real cheese thanks!
Gross. Just eat cheese!
Add a little dill and makes it all the more cheesy
As a lactose intolerance person, feed me that and you'll lose a finger
Shoot me now. 😮
No. I'll stick with cheese.
Gross. No thanks.
My favorite part " We're going to cook them to hell". 😂
Any suggestions for an alternative to the oil ingredient? Trying to avoid oil, as well as dairy.

If this wasnt called a cheese sauce Id probably have better expectations for taste.
What is the 1/8 tsp liquid “distilled [X] added for a little bit of tang”? Thank you.
“If mashed potatoes were yellow, they would be cheese.” – this guy.
Why not use some of the cooking water in the blender instead of fresh water?
I like it better than cheese. I’m allergic to dairy and I love this recipe. I am so excited to see this on here.
Yeast, which is a fungus, is more like an animal than a plant.
Yeast isn't a "plant".
maple syrup would probably make it taste more like cheese.
“Plant based…” nope.
WHY?
Thanks for the info on nutritional yeast being bakers yeast that has been deactivated! Thanks for your lovely accent, and an easy recipe too!
I'm gonna try this. It looks like a good alternative to cashews for nut allergies and the price.
“Cook them to hell”. RIP potatoes & carrots 😂
this looks like a fun way to sneak more veg into my diet.
😂
Non-dairy but not vegan, because there's dead yeast in it. Yeast are living creatures. Lactose intolerant folks should enjoy this!
I've made this a ton and its SOOO good. Shockingly good. Havent made it in a while so i guess it's time to make it again. Great for nachos.
You can't make a cheese sauce without cheese. I mean, this really isn't difficult to understand.
Don't waste your time.
Flip, I thought this was going to be a parody 😂😂😂😂😂

Well, for those of us who cannot eat milk products at all, I for one, appreciate having options. Thank you for sharing this with us.
Stop making up nonsensical words/foods. 😠👎
Simply call it what it actually is; instead of being deceptive and misleading.
Interesting, I'll try it. Thanks for the idea!
