For the cashew cheese: In a bender, blend together the water and cashews for about 40 seconds. Add the salt, pepper, and lemon juice and blend for an additional 30 seconds, until smooth and creamy. Remove from the blender and refrigerate until ready to use.

For the tomatoes: Place the sliced tomatoes in a colander over a bowl and sprinkle with the salt. Let sit for 20 to 30 minutes. Spread the tomatoes out on some paper towels and gently squeeze to remove the excess water. Set aside.

For the crust: Preheat the oven to 350F. In a large bowl, stir together the flour, salt, pepper, and rosemary. In another bowl, whisk the olive oil and soy milk. Add the olive oil mixture to the flour mixture and combine gently with a fork. Mix until the dry and liquid ingredients are thoroughly incorporated and form a ball, but do not overwork.

Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until the tomatoes are soft and bubbly and the outside crust has browned. Place on a wire rack to cool (nobody wants hot tomatoes exploding in their mouth).

It's messy to get out of the pan, but delicious, if you eat it while still warm. Alternatively, let it cool completely before slicing.
