Sliceable Potato Cheese

This incredible, sliceable potato cheese is the perfect thing to put on your sandwiches, to serve with crackers, or just eat it on its own – it's that tasty. The potatoes and carrots form the bulk of this cheese and they are blended smooth with a savory array of spices and then simmered with a bit of agar agar to give the cheese its firm texture.
