For me, I know I can use up the okara but I am just too lazy. Yet I felt such a waste throwing it away each time.
So when I chanced upon Maangchi's Soy milk (Duyu: 두유), I want to try her method.
Findings: My family still prefers the filtered method and I added sugar instead as they prefers it sweetened.
What you need:
1 cup dried soya beans, soaked in cold water overnight 3 cups icy cold water50g unsalted toasted cashews 1 tbsp sesame seeds, toasted2 tbsp sugar
Method:
Remove the skins from the beans. Strain the beans and put them in a large bowl.
Fill the bowl with cold water and remove any floating skins, then pour out the water. Repeat this a couple of times: scrubbing, adding water, pouring out the skins and water, until you are left with mostly skinned beans.
Strain the skinned beans.
Put skinned beans in a large pot with 2 cups of water, cover, and boil for 15 minutes over medium high heat. If it boils over, cover pot halfway.
Soak the cashew in water.
Rinse the beans in cold water and remove the remaining skins floating on the top. Drain with a sieve.
Add the cashews and sesame seeds together with 1 cup of the soy bean to the blender. (Freeze the leftover beans for future use).
Add 2 cups of water and blend for 2 minutes until the mixture turns creamy.
Add the remaining 1 cup of water and the sugar. Blitz for 10 seconds.
Transfer the soy milk to 4 large cups and serve right away.
Take care!
