For those who like to know how to make soy milk. Preparation time does not include the 8hrs/overnight soaking. Ingredients:
1 cup soybeans, whole white ones, cleaned and soaked 8hrs or overnight |
12 cups boiling water, divided 1st to 4 cups,then 1 cup,then 7cups |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1/4 cup sugar, or maple syrup or vanilla (optional) |
cheesecloth, muslin cloth or cloth used for straining out liquids |
Directions:
1. Drop soaked soybeans in continuous 4 cups boiling water with baking soda. Blanch for 5 mins and rinse. 2. . After rinsing, add a cup of hot water and process the beans in a food processor or blender. Careful, it's hot so be sure to cover it well. 3. Next, boil the remaining 7 cups of water and put in the processed beans and sugar/maple syrup/vanilla for 20 mins stirring occasionally and removing the thin film formed on top. 4. Strain the bean particles using a cheesecloth. The soy milk would be hot so this serves as a warning. Either use silicon gloves, or press the spatula against the cheesecloth to strain out the liquid. 5. Drink hot or cold and can last til a week in a ref. 6. Freeze or use the okara (bean residue) for other recipes. |
