It’s actually not that difficult to make our own Soya Milk. Frankly speaking, it’s way better that store-bought variety. All you need is an automatic soya bean milk maker, a mug of soya beans and you’re done.
Here’s my automatic soya bean milk maker. I bought the large one as it can make 2 liters at one go.
Soak around 150gm of soya bean overnight for at least 10 hours.
Remove the skin by rubbing the beans together in your palms and rinsing it every now and then and flushing the skin away. Repeat until you remove as much as possible. This will reduce the much-hated beany taste. This is the container which i have to replace to the bottom of the soya bean milk maker.
Here it is and ready to be boiled.
This is how it looks like right after i’ve removed it from the maker. Some people like to squeeze the last few drops out from the okara (Soya bean pulp) by putting it in a muslin cloth and wring it, lol. Gimme a break.
Nah, this is the okara. If you were to add some flour and eggs, they make great filling and very nutritious pancakes. Or you can also add some filling to it and turn them into fried okara balls. I wont bother with it now.
Mmmmm… fresh homemade soya bean milk is the best. Just let it stand for a while so that the sediment stays at the bottom.
Pour slowly into containers using a sieve, k. And go real slow towards the end into a cup as those will have more sediment.
Delicious… you can then flavor it with honey or whatever you like. I prefer mine plain. Hubby wants his sweetened. Too bad i forgot to buy his organic sweetener….ishhhhh. Men and their demands.
