Soya Milk

This delicious, versatile, healthy and humane drink has hundreds of uses. Bake it in breads, add it to sauces or drink it straight out of the glass!

1 cup dried soya beans
Water
15–20 cloves
Salt

Inspect the soya beans and wash 3 or 4 times. Soak in 2 to 3 cups of water overnight (or at least 8 to 10 hours). The beans should be soft, swollen and grindable.

Again wash and inspect, removing any unswollen beans. Grind in a blender with 2 to 3 cups of water, and then sieve through a very thin cloth, such as a sari or dhoti. Repeat this grinding and sieving process at least 6 times, adding 2 to 3 cups of water each time. In the earlier batches, the fluid will be thick enough to make ice cream, but later batches will be thinner. Use your judgement.

Add 15 to 20 cloves and salt to taste. Boil for about 15 minutes for texture, stirring with a large spatula to prevent burning.

The milk will stay good for a few days in the refrigerator.

Makes 12 to 15 cups
