Bean, Rice and
Nut Milks
Soak soybeans, rice and/or nuts
in water (nuts and soybeans for a
minimum of 8 hours).
Rinse and drain. Make a mixture of
beans, nuts, rice, water and if desired,
fruit / vegetables.
Feed the mixture into the chute
simultaneously with the same
volume of filtered water. For creamier
results use less water, or for a thinner
milk, increase the amount of water.
This works best using a large spoon
and scooping the mixture from a
container.
To reduce sediment, place a sieve
over the collection bowl or strain
through a muslin cloth.
This will make flavoured bean, nut
or rice milk. If using soybeans, the
resulting mixture can be used to
make tofu. For flavoured milks, try
the following ideas:
• add berries, banana and other
fruits
• add a small amount of salt and/or
sweetener eg; raw honey or maple
syrup
• add vanilla and a pinch of cumin,
nutmeg, cinnamon or cardamom
Tofu Recipe
Add a small amount of salt to soy
juice if you haven’t already and boil
while stirring continuously.
Add the curdling agent (coagulant) to
the boiled soy juice and let stand for
4-5 minutes while it curdles.
Remove the excess water by
squeezing it with clean, food-grade
muslin.
