How to Make Soybean Milk

  1. Soak 1 cup of soybeans in 4 cups of water overnight (at least 8 hours).
  2. Drain the soaked soybeans and rinse thoroughly.
  3. Combine the drained soybeans and 400 ml of fresh water in a high-speed blender. Blend until completely smooth and creamy.
  4. Gradually add another 1600 ml of water while blending continuously for about 3 minutes until well combined.
  5. Line a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth over a large bowl. Carefully pour the blended mixture through the sieve, pressing gently to extract as much milk as possible. Discard the okara (soy pulp).
  6. Pour the strained soybean milk into a pot. Bring to a gentle boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
  7. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
  8. Sweeten to taste with your preferred sweetener (e.g., 2-4 tablespoons of sugar or maple syrup).
  9. Allow to cool completely before serving or refrigerating. Enjoy your homemade soybean milk!
