Preparation steps

1.

Rinse cabbage, remove outer leaves and core and cut into thin slices. Puree cabbage together with salt and 500 ml (approximately 16 ounces) of water in a blender. Pour cabbage mixture into a bowl, cover with a kitchen towel and let ferment for 3 days at room temperature.

2.

After 2 days, place macadamia nuts in a bowl, cover with water and let soak overnight.

3.

The next day, drain nuts. Pour white cabbage puree through a fine sieve. Reserve cabbage juice. The smell of the juice should be similar to sauerkraut.

4.

Measure 200 ml (approximately 7 ounces) of cabbage juice and puree finely in a blender with drained nuts. Line a sieve with a kitchen towel and pour resulting cabbage mixture through into a bowl. Place something heavy, such as a bowl of water on top of the cabbage mixture and press in this way for 2 days at room temperature, allow to drain.

5.

Mix cabbage mixture remaining in the cloth in a bowl with nutritional yeast, place in dessert rings and chill in the refrigerator overnight. To serve, carefully push vegan cream cheese out of the rings and roll in dried flowers for garnish.
