Description
Not real spaghetti, fake Parmesan, but a real treat! In this recipe, you use a spiral slicer to turn kohlrabi into spaghetti and conjure up a vegan "Parmesan" from cashews, pine nuts and yeast. So that our Italian neighbours don't get angry that we are reinterpreting pasta and their beloved cheese in this way, you use typical Italian ingredients for the sauce: Basil, oregano and of course fine olive oil.
