Ingredients:
- 2 cups organic dried soy beans
- 3 cups water
- to flavor: cinnamon powder & honey
Directions:
- Soak beans for 6-12 hours (preferably overnight). Rinse and switch out water* in between.
- Rinse beans and add it in a saucepan with enough water* to submerge beans. Boil beans for 40-45 minutes on medium high heat. Stir and add more water (if needed) to avoid burn.
- Skim out particles/foam that floats during the boiling process.
- Allow beans to cool before blending.
- Line a huge fine mesh strainer/colander/sieve with cheesecloth and place it over a large bowl or pot.
- Add 1 cup of beans at a time in a high capacity blender with 1.5 cups of water. Blend until smooth.
- Remove blended soy milk and strain the liquid through cheesecloth. Twist and squeeze as much liquid as possible.
- Repeat for the balance of soybeans.
- Pour freshly pressed soy milk into a pitcher and chill before serving.
- To serve, add a dash of cinnamon powder and a drizzle of honey, mix and slurp!
*Note: water rationing for soaking and boiling needs to be accounted for, separately.
On a separate note, we would be attending Food Blog Forum this weekend at Disney, Florida. If you are attending, don’t forget to say Hi. If not, don’t fret. Follow our shenanigans on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram!
Off to play catch up on emails. It’s bursting on the seams, I kid you not.
