Almond Milk

Image
Like hazelnut milk , almond milk tends to be a fairly consistent recipe across the board. It is however a wonderful alternative for milk in myriad ways. I use it on a fairly consistent basis. It takes a bit longer than hazelnut milk because there is the necessity to soak the almonds first. Some people say you don't have to soak them, but I didn't like the consistency or the flavor as much as when I soak them. Almond Milk 1 cup raw almonds * Water to soak the almonds 4 cups water Place almonds in a small bowl and pour between 3-4 cups of water over the almonds. Allow to soak 8-12 hours. Drain water off the almonds. Rinse the almonds. Place almonds in a blender, such as a Vitamix . Add 4 cups of water. Blend until the liquid turns white increasing the speed slowly. Place a nutmilk bag in a pitcher and pour blended almond mixture into the nutmilk bag. Twist the bag wringing out as much liquid as possible. Place almond pulp from the nutmilk bag
