Homemade Soy Milk
Soy Milk are pretty expensive, a carton of soy milk cost nearly 200 rs. But i love the taste of it a lot. Love to add it to my morning oatmeal, milkshakes and to drink it as it is..But the price of it put me off in getting one..So i decided to try it by myself. To my surprise it turned out great. I made a vanilla flavour milk. You could make a chocolate flavour milk by adding some cocoa powder to the milk and cooking it a little longer. Give this a try and let me know how it turned out...

Notes
2)You can make chocolate flavoured soy milk, by adding cocoa powder in the last minute of cooking. 3)You can remove the skin before grinding too, but many people grind the soya bean with skin and strain it after that. But removing skin before grinding reduces the beany taste. 4)Soya Bean can be used in many vegan recipes in place of milk.
