Ingredients
80
g
Soybeans
(soaked overnight)
1000
ml
Water - filtered
40
ml
Maple syrup
(or honey to taste)
1
tablespoon
REAL Vanilla Paste
(optional)
1
teaspoon
Cinnamon powder
(optional)
Method
Soak the soybeans in water overnight (ideally 12 hours or longer).
Drain the soybeans and remove the outer skins. Removing the outer skins is optional, but your milk will have a better texture if you do.
Add them to a powerful blender and blend them with 3 cups of water (750 ml) until well blended and almost smooth.
Strain the blended mixture using a nut milk bag or a fine mesh strainer.
Pour the mixture into a pot or a saucepan and add 1 cup of water (250 ml). Bring to a boil, stir and skim foam.
Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, for about 20 minutes.
Let cool the soy milk. You can add the sweetener and other ingredients such as vanilla, cinnamon. Blend the mixture if necessary.
Keep the leftovers in a sealed container in the fridge for about 3-5 days.
Recipe Notes
Use yellow soybeans, it's the best kind of soybeans to make soy milk.
Add more or less water depending on how thick you like your milk.
Add any sweetener you want or don't add any at all. Add it gently until the milk tastes good.
You can add a pinch of salt to lift it.
Feel free to add other ingredients like cacao or matcha.
