Here's the colby "uncheese" from The Ultimate Uncheese Cookbook. We didn't have roasted red peppers so I tried the paprika variation. It's good, but too paprika-y and a bit dry, probably due to powdered paprika versus juicy roasted peppers. If I do the paprika version again, maybe I should use less agar to make it softer?

Anyway, the taste is really nice. Very cheesy, if not a dead ringer for real colby cheese. Goes well with crackers, stuffed peppers, etc...
