This is a very creamy, soy-y milk for fem-aligned people who enjoy the taste of soy. It ‘curdles’ easily to acid; if you want milk for strong acidic coffee, consider making oat milk instead. If you want to use it for cooking, cut down on the sugar.
(Mio Mate is a great source of cute bottles; the label peels cleanly after soaking for a few hours.)
Makes a little over 1L, keeps to around a week. Adjust proportions if you need more.
Soak the soys for 2h to 3h (and, contrary to what the Internet says, *not longer*). Set an alarm.
When the soys are ready for milking, discard the soakwater, put the grains in the milker, add 1L of water and all the other ingredients. Blend for ~1min til it's nice and creamy. Rest the blender in the tall container, lift the filter from the water, and squeeze the pulp (okara) with the pestle.
Put the milk in a stovepot and light the fire. Add the remaining .5L water and blend again, then add this extra milk to the pot. Bring the pot to a boil, then lower the fire to low-medium. You want to keep it simmering quietly for 20min.
While the milk simmers:
Once the simmering is finished, pour the milk in the final bottles and distribute to girlfriends.
Okara can be added to stir-fries and sauces for easy protein; it will add a grainy texture. There are many fancier ways of using it, look online for recipes.
