How to Make Cashew Milk at Home in a Vitamix Blender - 2 Ingredient plant based milk!

[@Schatzie301]

I make cashew milk all the time in the Vitamix with raw cashews. I don’t soak them nor do I strain them and the milk is just fine. No grittiness at all. I also make cashew creamer for my coffee by adding less water and cashew cream by reducing the water even further. Once again, I never soak or strain and the product is perfectly smooth. Just keep blending in the Vitamix till all trace of the solids are gone.

Same here never strain

This is a fascinating video and just watching the process makes me want to make both cashew and almond milk! I like that you can control the liquids viscosity and use the milk as a cream like coconut milk/cream in cooking recipes or reduce it while cooking.

My favorite is oat milk. Very nice. I put a touch of salt, some honey and some coconut oil in there. For me it is awsome. But raw as you make it is very tasty too. Thank you for sharing

Sesame milk is great too. About 1/2 c to 4c water no soaking required if you’re in a rush.

[@PlantBasedBistro]

Never tried sesame. We have used hemp and sunflower seeds though.

I made cashew butter with the post milking residue.

I have an abundance of cashews so I'll make this. Great video as I'm meal prepping for the week.

Don’t put it down the drain .. I just add soaking water into plants or just the grass.. something can use it’s nutrients

[@robinwilson8435]

If you want to go cheap, you can use a paint strainer bag.

Great video!❤

Can I use roasted cashew note to make cashew milk??

[@PlantBasedBistro]

Not really. Needs to be "raw" or it may not work correctly.

[@adamaadam5515]

Just use the soaking water to give plants a watering, no waste

[@PlantBasedBistro]

True!

[@PyrateWench84]

I came here for the recipe, I stayed for all the nut jokes.

[@bethanynye7594]

One question. Why do you have to discard the soaking water then add new water? Is there something in the soaking water that people don't want in their nut milk?

[@PlantBasedBistro]

Well… to be honest? Not sure. I cannot imagine what could be bad about it.

[@bettydawes3042]

naw!!! that's yuk!! the film that comes from the nuts..nooooo

[@robinwilson8435]

FYI-It doesn't become aquafaba until the chickpeas are cooked.

[@denyhoweth5715]

You didn’t say the ratio of nut to water? 1:4??

[@PlantBasedBistro]

Measures should be in the description.

[@denyhoweth5715]

@@PlantBasedBistro oh. Derp. Didn’t scroll deep enough

[@PlantBasedBistro]

No worries!

[@AGILISFPV]

Why discard the cashew water? If using distilled or RO water, wont it pull all the good stuff from the nuts and by not consuming that water you're losing those nutrients?

[@PlantBasedBistro]

Honestly... I just heard that, don't really know! Now I have to look it up.

[@chat5254]

Great video. Thank you!

[@madamplant]

I use a date!

[@PlantBasedBistro]

You can. I prefer it unsweetened :)

[@victoriousbride]

I have a ninja blender. Not sure if anyone has use one to make cashew milk. Let me know.

[@PlantBasedBistro]

I would soak overnight or boil the cashews for like 15 mins to be safe.
