Basic Recipe for Nut Milk
-------------------------
1/2 cup chopped nuts (almonds or other nut is your choice, unroasted)
2 cups water, best if warm
1 tsp. raw honey or pure maple syrup
Blend nuts and all other indredients in a blender until smooth. Strain
mix and refrigerate for up to 3 days. You can use the strained material
as a thickener for a soup or stew as long as its not too sweet. It is a
shame to throw it out so find a way to use it.
If you are on a rotation diet you can vary the cooking liquid that you
use by the day by using different nuts. I use nut milk for cooking and
baking.
