No New Food Continues....

Ugh - why did I make this bet with myself.  I dusted off the soymilk maker and made soymilk last night.  I haven't done that in ages (only when I get the urge to make tofu which is almost never).  I don't like homemade soymilk as much as storebought, but it's so much cheaper (3 ounces of soybeans makes 1.5 quarts).

That is very interesting. Any uses for the okara? Do you compost it if you don't do edible things with it?

I love tofu. I had some this week that I stir-fried with a little soy sauce and sesame oil and lots of broccoli! I've never experienced really fresh tofu. I bet it is wonderful.

How long is the total process for soy milk?

The soymilk maching runs for about 40 minutes or so. I usually just compost the okara. I usually make veggie burger patties with it, but I haven't been in the mood for those lately.

In Japan they have little kiosks in big department stores for fresh tofu. They make it onsite. It's the best stuff. I really miss Japan in so many ways.
