Dairy Free Milks

I recently bought a soy milk maker, which is basically a stainless steel blender with a heating element. It has 6 pre-programmed sequences. Here are the included recipes in the manual in case I can’t find it.

Table of contents

Basic Formula

The milk making process follow the same basic formula and instuctions. The only things you need are the ( a ) main ingredient(s): food, and water ( e ). Sweeterners and flavorings ( b – d ) are optional.

Ingredients

  1. nuts, soy or fruit
  2. sweetener
  3. spices or flavorings

  5. water ( just under 1 liter )

Instructions

  1. Add ingredients ( a – d ) into the milk maker.
  2. Add water ( e ) above the min but below the max water line.

  4. Unplug the power cord before pouring out the liquid.

Bean Milk

Beans : 35 minutes

For creamier soy milk, it is best to rinse and then warm soak the beans for a few hours (2 – 4), and then rinse again before blending or portion out the soaked, rinsed beans into jars in the fridge overnight to blend the next day. For storing the beans overnight, I also add a teaspoon of salt. If you rinse overnight-soaked salted soy beans, the soy milk will end up pretty tasteless and watery so it is preferred to pour the salted soak water into the machine along with the beans.

Before serving, the soy milk foam, if any, should be skimmed off the surface. Overnight-soaked salted soy beans will cook and blend without forming a foam on top.
