Miyoko Schinner

From Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


Miyoko Schinner is the inventor of a new technology for creating vegan cheese [1] Vegan food does not contain any animal products. Miyoko is also the founder of Miyoko's creamery.[1][2] She discovered how to create vegan cheese without rejuvelac. [1] Rejuvelac is an ingredient commonly used in vegan cheese. [1] She created vegan cheese by fermenting nut milks. [1] Fermentation is the breakdown of substances by bacteria. This fermentation method created realistic vegan cheeses. [1] She started developing her own recipes in her 20s after becoming lactose intolerant. [3][1][4] Miyoko's creamery is a vegan dairy company. [1] Miyoko’s Creamery products are sold in over 12,000 stores.
