Guest guest Posted February 29, 2008 Report Share Posted February 29, 2008 I would check all of the print on the container. I had to really hunt in the small print of my oat milk container to find the storage recommmendation. Oat milk is good for 4 - 5 days in the fridge once opened and I would imagine that soya milk is similar. Christie , " Stephanie " <stephsstuff001 wrote: > > I bought some soy milk about a month ago.

Guest guest Posted February 29, 2008 Report Share Posted February 29, 2008 I just bought rice milk, don't know how close that is to soy milk, but after open, it will lay 5 days.

Guest guest Posted February 29, 2008 Report Share Posted February 29, 2008 It is my experience that soy milk lasts forever. It is best when consumed a week after opening, but I have used it when it is much older and WAY past the expiration date on the carton. When it is bad, you can smell it and often see it. It will have a rancid smell and taste when it is bad. Jo-Ann On Behalf Of Stephanie Friday, February 29, 2008 3:21 PM Soy Milk Question I bought some soy milk about a month ago.

Guest guest Posted March 1, 2008 Report Share Posted March 1, 2008 I buy almond milk. I like it so much better than soy. The unsweetened is great for cooking or baking. The original for cereal. Love the vanilla and chocolate flavours too. But the soy milk strawberry is good too I find the soy smoothie formulas in the refrigerated section have a much shorter shelf life, maybe because of the fruit. purrs, Lydia, Zookeeper, Southern Ontario, Canada " There are few things in life more heartwarming than to be welcomed by a cat.

Guest guest Posted November 1, 2009 Report Share Posted November 1, 2009 Hi everyone! Is there such a thing as " light " or non fat, unsweetened soy milk? I have been buying the " light " soy milk but the sweetness of it is starting to make it unpalatable. I have tried unsweetened soy milk and like it much better but the fat content seems high to me. The Whole Food market near my house has a staggering array of soymilks but I can't seem to find unsweetened " light " . Do they make such a thing?

Guest guest Posted November 4, 2009 Report Share Posted November 4, 2009 I think perhaps the best way to get what you want is to make your own. A soymilk machine might be a pricey investment, but add up what you spend in a year on soymilk and figure out the actual costs. I know many times I will make a " cream " of celery soup and use a half-gallon of my homemade soymilk. It's really cheap to make. Also, perhaps if you had a source of " cheap " soymilk, you might find lots of other things to use it for. Anyway, just a thought....

Guest guest Posted November 5, 2009 Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 I have a SoyToy, which I think was around $179. I like it, but there is absolutely no support. I originally purchased it because there was an ongoing that answered questions, had great discussions on other foods to incorporate the soymilk and lots of great recipes. Unfortunately, the group folded shortly after I joined it. Mine makes about 1/2 gallon at a time and uses 1/2 cup of raw soybeans. I think it's more like a pressure cooker....it cooks the beans for maybe about 20 minutes, then grinds them a few times, then cooks again for a few more minutes. It takes just under 1/2 hour to make. I would also be interested to hear what others have to say about their machines. On Wed, Nov 4, 2009 at 5:07 PM, carold <auntyfaye wrote: That sounds like a possiblity.

Guest guest Posted November 5, 2009 Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 I switched to Almond Milk by Almond Breeze. They have an unsweetened 40 cal a cup vanilla and a chocolate product either in the aseptic shelf packaging or in the refrigerator case in some grocery stores (my Vons/Safeway, WF, Sprouts, Henrys and Ralphs/Kroger carry it). It is mild tasting, not heavy on the almond flavor and works well in cereal, coffee and baking or stovetop recipes. It is also as fortified as cow or soy milks. Almond Breeze also puts out the 60 and 90 cal varieties so be sure and look for the 40 cal.You might try it out.

Guest guest Posted November 5, 2009 Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 I have two SoyQuick machines, one of the older " regular " style and one the new " filterless " style, and I love them both. The Premier is called filterless because you don't put the soybeans into a separate filter to make the milk; they go into the main part of the machine with the water, and then you strain them out through a strainer into a pitcher (both provided with the machine). I haven't experimented with making other milks, but recipes are provided for making rice, mung bean, and other milks. It also comes with a great instruction manual as well as a small cookbook. (Full disclosure: I contributed two okara recipes for the cookbook; the other recipes come from Marie Oser, Bryanna Grogan, and Julie Hasson.) It's a small, friendly company, and as far as I can tell, the customer support is great. The Premier is more expensive than the regular model ($179 as opposed to $119) but the extra cost is worth it to me because it's so much easier to clean. I also have a tofu making kit that came with my 1st model, and it makes the best tofu I've ever tasted. The site is http://www.soymilkquick.com/soymilkmaker.php . (Other than having given them 2 recipes free of charge, I have no connection with the company and do not receive any payment for referring people to them!) You can see it making tofu on my blog: http://blog.fatfreevegan.com/2008/10/making-tofu.htmlSusan-------------------------Susan Voisin FatFree Vegan Kitchenhttp://blog.fatfreevegan.comhttp://www.facebook.com/FatFreeVegan-------------------------- On Wed, Nov 4, 2009 at 6:45 PM, Momcat <Momcat55 wrote: I have a SoyToy, which I think was around $179.

Guest guest Posted November 5, 2009 Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 Hi!I'm new and everything and pretty much just lurking around since I don't really have much to say.I thought I should bring this up though... why not just make soya milk in pot? It requires some forethought but it's much cheaper! All you do is soak them for about 8 hours (night before), rinse them out with cold water after. Blenderize them (immersion blender's really good for this...), boil the beans in water (carefully! it tends to overflow, or get a giant pot) then strain out the beans once all the foam's gone. You can make it as beany/unbeany as you want and add flavourings once it's not longer boiling hot.

They have an unsweetened 40 cal a cup vanilla and a chocolate product either in the aseptic shelf packaging or in the refrigerator case in some grocery stores (my Vons/Safeway, WF, Sprouts, Henrys and Ralphs/Kroger carry it). It is mild tasting, not heavy on the almond flavor and works well in cereal, coffee and baking or stovetop recipes. It is also as fortified as cow or soy milks. Almond Breeze also puts out the 60 and 90 cal varieties so be sure and look for the 40 cal.You might try it out.

A soymilk machine might be a pricey investment, but add up what you spend in a year on soymilk and figure out the actual costs. I know many times I will make a "cream" of celery soup and use a half-gallon of my homemade soymilk. It's really cheap to make. Also, perhaps if you had a source of "cheap" soymilk, you might find lots of other things to use it for. Anyway, just a thought....

I have been buying the "light" soy milk but the sweetness of it is starting to make it unpalatable. I have tried unsweetened soy milk and like it much better but the fat content seems high to me. The Whole Food market near my house has a staggering array of soymilks but I can't seem to find unsweetened "light". Do they make such a thing?> > > > Carol in Mich> Canada Toolbar : Search from anywhere on the web and bookmark your favourite sites. Download it now!
