Key features & specs

How it compares

Miyoko's Creamery Liquid Vegan Pizza Mozzarella performs significantly better than standard potato-starch based shreds which often remain waxy or dry after baking. While traditional plant-based blocks require grating and can clump, this liquid formula pours evenly, ensuring every inch of the pizza is covered. It competes with high-end nut-based cheeses but offers a superior melt profile specifically optimized for high-heat environments like pizza stones.

How to use it

1. Preheat your oven or pizza stone to at least 450°F, though 500°F or higher is recommended.
2. Prepare your pizza dough and add your sauce as the base layer.
3. Shake the bottle of Miyoko's Creamery Liquid Vegan Pizza Mozzarella vigorously before opening.
4. Pour a thin, even layer over the sauce; do not worry if it looks like milk, it will solidify.
5. Add your favorite vegetable toppings and bake for 8-12 minutes until the cheese bubbles and browns.

Frequently asked questions

Is Miyoko's Liquid Mozzarella worth it?

Miyoko's Liquid Mozzarella is definitely worth it for pizza lovers because it achieves a melt and browning that shreds cannot replicate. It provides a professional finish to homemade vegan pizzas.

Does this work in a regular oven?

Yes, it works in a regular oven, though it performs best at temperatures of 500°F or higher to ensure proper browning. If your oven only goes to 450°F, consider using the broiler for the last 60 seconds.

How does it compare to dairy cheese?

Miyoko's Creamery offers a similar creamy mouthfeel and salty tang to traditional fresh mozzarella without the cholesterol. While the texture is slightly softer than dairy, the flavor is impressively authentic.

Can I use this for grilled cheese?

No, this product is specifically formulated for the high-heat evaporation of a pizza oven. For grilled cheese or sandwiches, Miyoko's block cheeses are a better alternative.
