Making HomeMade Nut Milk

Make your own homemade nut milk by following these five simple steps.

You can make a range of plantbased “milks” by means of blending raw nuts, seeds, and grains with just water.Homemade plantbased milksare always freshly made, clear of preservatives and you're completely sure of the integrity of the product: ingredients are of top quality, controlled sugar levels, and adaptable feel or thickness of the end product.

Here’s a list of the nuts, grains, and seeds thatyou could use to produce milk:

Almonds, cashews, Brazil nuts, macadamias, hazelnuts, pistachios, pecans, coconuts, hemp seeds, soybeans, pumpkin seeds, sesame seeds, sunflower seeds, sacha inchi seeds, quinoa, flax seeds, millet, oats, and even rice.

Milking seeds, raw nuts, and grains is really easy and quick. It could help the homemaker to save a lot of bucks, too. Here’s the way you do the miracle:

1. SOAKING

Put nuts, grains, or seeds in a bowl with distilled water. You may drop in a pinch of sodium for flavor. Salt also aids in speeding up the soaking process. Different types of nuts or grains involve different soak period. I have presented a chart regarding soaking times for different foods here in this article (LINK). Soaking is essential to improve the actual milk’s digestibility, which often increases the availability of nutrients to the body. The simplest reason is that it aids you to blend everything quicker. After soaking, wash thoroughly and drain.

2. BLENDING

A highspeed blender as well as a mixer is more desirable to actually grind the mix. Use a 1: 3 ratio of nuts/grains/seeds to drinking water to yield the most desirable results. Start with 2 cups of water and gradually add more water until you achieve the consistency and taste that you enjoy. Some like the item thick, some want it light. It all depends on your choice. Blend in your machine for about 1 minute. Do not overblend, for this can make the mixture warm. Chill inside the fridge, or if you wish to drink it right away, blend with some ice.

3. FLAVOURING

To make the milk sweeter, mix with pitted dates, maple syrup, stevia, agave, coconut sugar (muscovado), honey, and so forth. You may also add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract or some cinnamon to enhance the flavor. It\'s also possible to include 1 tablespoon of sunflower or soy lecithin in addition to coconut butter to be able to thicken the mixture.

You may furthermore level up the milk with some fruits, raw cacao, nutmeg, or other wonderful spices that will make your imagination get wild.

4. STRAINING

Some nuts such as macadamias, cashews, as well as pecans yield silky smooth milks. Alternatively, with most seeds and grains, especially the hard nuts like walnuts, you may discover some grits, irrespective of how much time you spend blending them. Some people in fact prefer this grainy milk, but others would want to strain it for the smoother, more processed blend. To try this, place a foodgrade nut milk bag on a container, transfer the blended mixture in, then lightly squeeze the bag until all liquid has passed through. Do not throw the pulp away as it has so many uses.

Use the pulp for baking cookies as well as crackers, or complement pasta sauces, as well as soups, and salads, too. It can also be transformed into an extremely good body polish by simply drying the pulp up, or by mixing it with virgin coconut oil.

5. RELISHING

Most milks are generally best kept inside the fridge in any tightly sealed bottle for two or three days. Freeze some in ice cube trays for future use. Shake or blend again before drinking given that they separate when stored over time.

Homemade nut milks are certainly not only for drinking. They can be used for cooking too! Use them in place of your dairy milk in any dish that you like. Use them to make homemade ice cream or other desserts to enjoy with the little ones. Everything becomes lovelier when they are made out of love and care in your own home.
