    Homemade Soy Milk Recipe with step by step pictures. This recipe is the great alternative to cow's milk. It is delicious and is packed with nutrients and health benefits.

    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...

    Ingredients for Homemade Soy Milk

    • Dried Soy Beans - 1 cup
    • Water - 2 cups
    • Sugar or Honey to taste
    • Vanilla Essence - 1 tsp
     

    How to Make Homemade Soy Milk

    1. Wash and Soak dried soy beans overnight in lots of water. Drain it and add it to a blender.
    2. Puree them with ½ cup of water to a smooth paste.
    3. Now line a cheesecloth over a sauce pan. Pour the pureed mixture over this and squeeze lightly to remove the milk from it.
    4. Now you can add ½ cup more water to the squeezed mix and squeeze again to remove as much milk as possible.
    5. Keep doing this two more time by adding ½ cup of water each time. As a total you must have added 2 cups of water.
    6. Now place saucepan on heat and bring it to boil. Use a ladle to spoon all the scum which forms on the top of the milk.
    7. Keep doing this every now and then.
    8. Simmer the pan and cook it for 25 to 30 mins.
    9. Now strain this milk using a fine sieve. Allow it to cool down.
    10. Once it is cooled add in sugar and vanilla as per your taste.
    11. Chill it and serve.

    Notes

    1)You can use the leftover soya pulp is a called as okara..It can be used in various recipes..
    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.
