What cheese can be substituted for Swiss cheese?

Answer 1

Not knowing the reason for needing a cheese substitute (dietary restriction, vegan, allergy), or the requisite consistency: sour cream or yogurt or Greek yogurt cheese if dairy is okay; if dairy's out, there are tofu substitutes available at health food stores and some supermarkets.

Answer 2

You'd have to specify what you're using it in. Do you just want a semi-soft cheese, do you want a cheese with a similar texture, do you want a cheese that tastes similar, or what?

One reasonably good substitute would be queso Oaxaca, which is made the same way as mozzarella but with cow's milk (authentic mozzarella is made from buffalo milk).

Montery Jack might work if you want a mild, semi-soft cheese but don't care as much about the "stringy" texture.

Answer 3

You can always use soya cheese as it does not have any milk products in it. From my observation has the same results.

Answer 4

Fat-free cheese or soy cheese are two alternatives to fat-laden cheese.

Answer 5

Nothing I know of tastes exactly the same, but Provolone cheese tastes pretty similar.

Answer 6

You could use American cheese or cheddar cheese to replace Swiss cheese in most dishes; however, the substitution would change the taste overall just a bit.

Answer 7

Some peopel say Swiss.

Answer 8

cheddar.
