- .RH REC.FOOD.RECIPES-#196 SOYMILK OV "12 Nov 91" 1991
- .RZ "SOYMILK"
- Here is a rather detailed description of making soymilk from \fIThe Tofu
- Cookbook\fR by Cathy Bauer and Juel Andersen. The book begins "we dedicate
- this book to all people who have tried tofu -- once." One of it's strong
- points is that is contains many good recipes for using okara, the mashed
- soybean leaftovers of soymilk making.
- .IH
- .IG "1 lb" "soybeans" "450 g"
- .PH
- .SK 1
- You need a large bowl and a colander. Rinse the beans. Cover them with enough
- cold water to allow for expansion. Soak overnight. Drain the beans and rinse
- again before using. If you can't make soymilk by the next day, you can store
- the beans in a plastic bag in the refrigerator for up to 1 week or in the
- freezer up to 3 months.
- .SK 2
- You need blender, food processor, food grinder, measuring cup and a large pot.
- .PP
- \fBBlender and food processor method:\fR
- .PP
- Apply a nonstick surface, such as oil or lecithin, to the pot. Heat 2 cups
- water in the pot on low. Blend beans, using 3 parts water to 2 parts soaked
- beans. Add batches to the pot as you blend. The beans will have now expanded
- to about 7 \(12 cups so you will be using about 11 cups of water. Use another
- cup to rinse the blender/food processor into the cooking pot. Total water used
- up to this point will be about 14 cups.
- .PP
- \fBGrinder method:\fR
- .PP
- Grind the beans as fine as possible, perhaps using a medium and then a fine
- screen, grinding them twice. Begin with the same amount of water as above, 14
- cups and add the bean mash to the water.
- .SK 3
- Cook the soy mixture over a medium fire, loosely covered. Bring it to a
- rolling boil, reduce heat, and simmer for at least 15-20 minutes. The cooking
- time is important, as raw soybeans contain a factor known as tripsin
- inhibitor. Essentially, this means that the protein contained in the beans
- cannot be properly assimilated by the body unless the beans are well cooked.
- .SK 4
- You need a colander, large pot and enough cheesecloth to line the colander.
- While the beans are cooking, wet the cheesecloth and place it in the colander.
- Next place the colander over the pot. It's best to do this in a sink, because
- the next step tends to be sloppy.
- .SK 5
- Pour the cooked mixture into the colander to separate out the soymilk. Rinse
- the empty pot with 1 cup of water and pour the residue into the colander. Wash
- the cooking pot and apply a nonstick surface again. Transfer the strained
- soymilk to the large pot and return it to the stove. Pour 4 cups of water at a
- time through the soy mash. Repeat twice, using a total of 12 cups water. After
- draining, gather the mash up in the cheesecloth and press, squeeze, twist it
- until as much soymilk as possible has drained out. Add to the pot on the stove
- and heat again to boiling. Let it cool to room temperature.
- .PP
- Congratulations, you're done! You will now have 1 \(12 gallons of soymilk.
- Soymilk has about the same refrigerator life as cow's milk.
- .NX
- To fortify the soymilk add 300 milligrams calcium, from calcium lactate or
- calcium carbonate, for each cup of milk, 50-150 micrograms of B12 for the
- batch, 1 tsp honey and 1 tsp oil for each cup of milk.
- .PP
- A note on the calcium: calcium lactate is soluble and acts as a solidifier,
- so if you add it to warm soymilk, it will curdle. Calcium carbonate is
- insoluble, but won't curdle the milk.

- .RZ "EDIBLE PLAY DOUGH"
- .KY KIDS
- When I saw Lisamarie Babik's recipe, and I was reminded of my mom's recipe for
- edible play dough. While it doesn't have quite the same texture and feel as
- traditional play dough, it's nice and malleable. We used to eat it with graham
- crackers. This way you can build your play dough creations using the graham
- cracker as a base. We used to make smiley faces, animals, and other little
- sculptures. It's very, very sweet, so kids should love it.
