Home made veggie sausage (recipe repost) -- homemade non-fat soymilk

[Guest guest]

Hi Rosa,

I just buy the beans/legumes, possibly these are available in even more handy

places than tofu(!). Some I make into milks for cereal, drinking and yogurt.

Some I make into flour, for gravies/sauce and baking. And some I just eat whole

with brown rice and greens. I've never actually bought or had tofu, though I

probably know what it must be like from fooling around with soybeans. Actually I

keep my yogurt starter in soymilk so I can tell when its working by the

accumulated white tofu at the bottom of the container, like proofing yeast, and

I've had that. Night before last I had a weird dream and woke up with the idea

of putting soaked TVP granules in my soymilk machine ... to make homemade

non-fat soymilk. TVP is of course the dried and pressed leavings after soybeans

are ground up to extract the oil. I think I'll maybe get a few pounds and give

it a try!

actually similar in texture to the tofu prepared this way, so I am glad okara

works Slim. I do not have a source or okara near by, but tofu is available

pretty much everywhere.
