24.01.2022 Were so excited to be back at Harvest Market on May 23! Cant wait to see all the friendly faces again - with all the handwashing and sanitising and distancing in place of course

24.01.2022 Great write up in the Mercury for Artisa and some of our SeedLab colleagues!

23.01.2022 I might be a bit late heading in to the cheesery this morning because there is SO MUCH SNOW in Launceston!

22.01.2022 Want to learn more about cultured vegan cheesemaking? Weve made just the group for you! Its a forum for our DIY kit users but we are are keen on sharing the fun.

22.01.2022 I love coming in to the cheesery in the mornings to check on my cashew cheese ferments. Looks like weve got an over-exuberant one here!

22.01.2022 Creamy pasta dish featuring The Derwent cashew cheese with foraged fennel pollen, a splash of Pernod to amp up the fennel flavour and some precious broad bean shoots from our garden (just dont tell the gardener!) Wholegrain wheat twists from @thegrainfamily and a final dusting of extra fennel pollen to finish.

21.01.2022 We need a hand! Casual position, two days/week for now with the potential to increase. The person we are looking for ... Has food industry experience... Is adaptable and able to show initiative Shows attention to detail Has a positive attitude Is well organised with good communication skills If this sounds like you, and you have a passion for learning about all aspects of vegan cheesemaking (even the boring bits), email your resume and a killer cover letter to [email protected]

21.01.2022 All of these excellent establishments have fresh supplies of Artisa cheese in store. Theyre supporting our small business and wed love you to support them If theres not one near you, give us a shout and let us know where else youd like to find Artisa!

21.01.2022 Spaghetti with broad bean and mint pesto and our St Clair cashew cheese. So fresh. So tasty.

21.01.2022 This picture is a ribbon diagram depicting globulin. Fun fact: Globulins and albumins are the most abundant proteins in cashew nuts, where they largely function as seed storage proteins. These same proteins are also abundant in your blood where they play a role in liver function, fighting infection and the transport of other molecules. The building blocks of proteins are amino acids. Globulins and albumins have a good amino acid profile and cashews therefore provide all of the essential amino acids that humans need to obtain through their diet.

20.01.2022 Three years ago today since we moved in to the new cheesery! It sure looks a bit different now

20.01.2022 Sweet things to do with ARTISA St Clair cashew cheese (Part 2). Sweeten to taste with icing sugar, add orange rind and Grand Marnier orange liqueur and mix well. Sandwich teaspoonfuls between pairs of Arnotts Ginger Nuts, dip half in melted dark chocolate (optional but highly recommended), and leave in the fridge overnight. The centre goes fudgy and soft, but the outside stays slightly crisp - almost like a lazy persons French macaron. Genius - if I do say so myself!

20.01.2022 Our ever popular kunanyi cashew cheese has never looked better. Creamy, with a delicious lactic tang and the warmth and fragrance of native Tasmanian pepperberry.

19.01.2022 Queens Birthday weekend is the perfect time to enjoy cheese and cocktails. Were loving this dark and moody pairing of our Tasman Black cashew cheese with black garlic, with a Ghost Story cocktail. Bourbon, my home made green walnut nocino liqueur, lemon juice and bitters, served in my favourite vintage Roemer wine glass.

19.01.2022 Our Ben Lomond camembert style cashew cheese has just five simple ingredients. No coconut oil, nothing else added.

17.01.2022 One 20g serve of our aged Gladstone cashew cheese provides 39% of your daily copper requirement. Copper is an essential mineral that helps build collagen, assists with iron absorption and has a role in energy production.

17.01.2022 Apple and sour (cashew) cream cake with dairy free feijoa sorbetto by @della_valle_gelato

17.01.2022 Its a fabulous morning down @harvest_launceston and weve got another market special for you. Buy any two of our fresh chvre style cashew cheeses and you can choose a third one for free Dont tell the others but The Derwent, dusted with foraged fennel pollen, is my favourite. Today at least. Because it tastes like summer

14.01.2022 Hands up if you need a vegan Date Night Grazing Platter? The good people @earthy.eats have you sorted, featuring Artisa cheese of course!

14.01.2022 Need a little treat? Try these medjool dates stuffed with Artisa St Clair cashew cheese, sweetened and flavoured with orange rind and Grand Marnier liqueur, then dipped in dark chocolate. You wont regret it

13.01.2022 Our Tasman Black cashew cheese with Tasmanian black garlic is as good looking as it is tasty! To celebrate the reopening of Harvest Market in Launceston this weekend (YAY!), if you come along and buy a Tasman Black, you can choose one of our chvre style fresh cheeses for half price! @naomisherman_foodcreative

13.01.2022 Its good to be back! @harvest_launceston

08.01.2022 Im a day late for world gin day, but can I just say, my home made sloe gin, with hot apple juice, cinnamon and pepperberry syrup is exactly the thing for gloomy afternoons. Served with our pepperberry dusted chvre style kunanyi cashew cheese.

08.01.2022 If you were going to sacrifice a whole wheel of Ben Lomond ashed cashew camembert for just one recipe, make it this one! Pre-heat oven to 250C. Slice strawberries, place in a baking dish in the oven until the juice starts to run. Meanwhile, slice the cheese thinly and arrange on a pizza base. Place the roasted strawberries on top, brush with any juice and a drizzle of olive oil. Grind over some black pepper. Bake, covered, for 10 minutes or so until base is cooked and cheese is softened. Take out of oven, scatter over basil leaves and drizzle with balsamic glaze. Bon appetit!

07.01.2022 We are so keen for Tasmania’s first all vegan food and wine festival tomorrow ! A curated selection of local wines and food from some of your favourites Live music Tickets available at the gate. See you there!

06.01.2022 Yes, I am having tiramisu in a jar for lunch today - courtesy of last nights super fun virtual cooking class with @theveganitaliankitchen and @drool.aus. Featuring our Artisa cashew cream cheese of course. Seriously so yum!

04.01.2022 Warm puy lentil salad with our natural chvre style St Clair cashew cheese.

04.01.2022 Happy National Cheese Day everybody! Vegan cheese of course

03.01.2022 Still life with Ben Lomond and pear.

03.01.2022 New blog post up on the website...We know whats Beyond Meat, but whats beyond cheese? Have a read. www.artisa.com.au/blog

02.01.2022 If youre lucky enough to stay at the luxurious Saffire Freycinet in Coles Bay, TAS, youll be pleased to know that you will find Artisa cheese on the menu.

02.01.2022 Traditionally, when cheesemakers in the French alps didnt have enough curds at each milking to fill their cheese moulds, they sprinkled ash over the surface to stop undesirable microbes from growing. Next day, they topped up the moulds with more curds, resulting in a layer of ash in the middle of the cheese. For our Ben Lomond, we slice our cashew cheese in half, sprinkle each half with our house made Tasmanian vine ash and press it back together, just because we think it looks cool!

02.01.2022 Coconut cashew cream caramel (For 4 125 ml dariole moulds or ramekins) For caramel:... Add 1 cup of sugar to a heavy based saucepan and place over medium-high heat. Watch it continuously until the sugar starts to melt. Swirl the sugar around in the saucepan until it is all melted and caramelised. Pour carefully and evenly into 4 moulds. For coconut cashew cream. 1 cup coconut cream 1/2 c sugar 1 tsp vanilla bean paste 1 tsp agar agar 125 g cultured cashew cheese ( eg Artisa St Clair) Heat coconut cream, sugar and vanilla over medium heat. Sprinkle agar agar powder over mixture and whisk to combine. Bring to the boil and simmer for 3 minutes. Take off heat and whisk in the cashew cheese until smooth. Divide mixture evenly into four moulds. Transfer to fridge, leave overnight to set. Unmould to serve.

02.01.2022 Just look at this amazing vegan platter created by @earthy.eats, featuring a selection of Artisa cheeses! Id probably start with hummus and crackers and work my way around to finish with Ben Lomond ashed camembert and slices of fresh pear. What would your strategy be?

01.01.2022 Doing our bit to add to the beautiful boho ambience at the Tasmanian Food & Wine Festival (v). The wine is flowing, the music is pumping and the food is delicious. We’re here until 10. Don’t miss out!
