For the marinade let drain the pickled pepper then remove the seeds
and the bitter parts of it.
Give all the herbs, the garlic, the paprika, and the soy oil to the
mixer and puree thoroughly.
Salt and pepper to taste.
If necessary add some more oil. Add the bay leaf.
Now cut the SCHEESE loaf in little pieces (like a cake would be
cut) and cover them with the marinade.

spit.

sprinkle the tomatoes with salad spices, herbal salt and a bit pizza
spice.

lemon juice.
Garnish with parsley and let marinade a while before serving.
WHITE "CHEESE" SAUCE
Heat up 1/2 l soy milk with some herbal salt and pepper.
Add 1 - 2 Tbsp margarine.Gradually stir in the half of a coarse
ground "Gouda".
Watch out that the sauce doesn't get lumpy.
If the sauce gets too thick, add some soy milk.
Nutmeg to taste (optional).
Goes with broccoli, cauliflower, and pasta of course.
BAKED "CHESHIRE"

Add a bit herbal salt to it. Cut the "Cheshire" crossways into two
halves.
Cover the halves with the dough and bread them.
Now fry them in oil on both sides.
STUFFED "CHEESE" COOKIES
Knead a smooth dough out of 250 g flour, 150 g margarine, 3/4 of
a ground "Gouda", salt, pepper and caraway.
Place the dough at a cool place and let rest for a while.
Now roll out the dough, cut out circular cookies and bake them till
golden brown.
In the meantime mash the rest of the "Gouda" and mix it with 4 Tbs
soya milk and 2 Tbs chopped nuts.
Stir the mixture till you get a creamy stuffing.
Now fill 2 cookies each, with the cream.
