Ingredients
- 1 cup dried soybeans
- 6 cup water
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoon honey or sugar
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
Directions
Step 1
Rinse the dried soybeans thoroughly under cold water until the water runs clear.
Step 2
Place the rinsed soybeans in a large bowl and cover them with 3 cups of water. Allow them to soak for at least 8-12 hours or overnight. The beans should double in size when properly soaked.
Step 3
Drain the soaked soybeans and give them another rinse.
Step 4
In a blender, combine the soaked soybeans with 3 cups of fresh water. Blend on high speed until the mixture becomes a smooth puree.
Step 5
Strain the pureed soybean mixture through a nut milk bag or a fine mesh strainer lined with cheesecloth into a large pot, pressing out as much liquid as possible. Discard the leftover pulp or save it for another use.
Step 6
Place the pot with the strained soybean milk over medium heat on the stove and bring it to a gentle boil, stirring frequently to prevent sticking.
Step 7
Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and simmer for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. This will help to cook the soybean milk and remove any raw bean flavor.
Step 8
After simmering, stir in the vanilla extract, honey (or sugar), and salt. Adjust the sweetener to taste.
Step 9
Allow the soybean drink to cool slightly before transferring to a clean glass jar or bottle. Refrigerate for up to a week.
Step 10
Shake well before serving enjoy your homemade low-fat soybean drink as is, or use it as a base for smoothies or other recipes.
