Making Valencia Style Horchata out of Tigernut

[@sskpsp]

I'd love to try tiger nuts sometime but I'm concerned about the ethics of it, like what the tigers have to go through and the risks taken by the harvesters to get it to my hands

You are awesome.. made my day buddy 😂

had this drink back in 2013 and I loved it so much the flavour just stayed in memory every time I remember this drink I just get the flavour in my mouth, hope I can go back to Valencia soon

[@yvettemarie952]

This recipe was perfect. Love valencian horchata! Thanks for posting this.

This is one of the first/only videos I've ever seen on the original horchata with chufas! Looks so simple like it should be, just the nut/seed/rice and water, NO DAIRY. Mexican recipes with condensed milk are sickening me lately. Somewhere along the way adding milk became a thing and it ruins it for me now that I wanna make my own. Looks like a nut milk bag is the secret to extracting all possible flavor without adding anything else for the creaminess.

[@lompass379]

Never has the mexican one but the valencian one is delicious, traditionnaly it's drank in 'slushy' form

[@minavamp2811]

horchata made from chufa is a lot richer because the seeds have high oil content like soybean and peanut. Mexican version is made from rice, and rice has no fat in it, so in order to add richness to the Mexican version, they add wholemilk, evaporated milk and condense milk to increase the fat content in the drink.

[@cristinaserna9510]

As a Spanish, certainly is not drank as a slushy. Is liquidity like normal milk

Like 3 Hi friend that looks Delicious very yummy and very tasty thanks for sharing 👍👍👈🌸🌸🌸

We call it horchata because “Tiger’s nuts milk” is obviously not a very marketable slogan. 🙃

Hi

[@jjjjasonnnn]

tigers nut

[@donnajones5771]

Hi, its very good with a little agave or without sugar.

[@HarmlessX]

So Almond Milk is just Almond Horchata, got it, I will be sure to point this out to everyone and make them uncomfortable

[@TundieRice]

Not really, when horchata is made with almonds, it’s usually sweetened and flavored with cinnamon, which it would most likely not be if it were called almond milk. I don’t really see how this isn’t just tiger nut milk.

[@PanjaRoseGold]

@@TundieRice Because nobody wants to drink nut milk from a tiger

[@TeyTey-ho1yx]

Ur videos are sooo cool

[@kayceesamuel89]

Tiger nut is already really sweet, why add more sugar?

[@chinglee100]

Does it taste in any way similar to Mexican horchata?

[@hobbitguy1420]

can you make tigernutbutter with your concher?

[@FlavorLab]

That's a good idea

[@divalea]

Anyone who watches this week’s Casual Geographic is going to think twice about making a drink from tiger’s nuts.

[@CVenza]

Every country has their own version of many foods. Even foods within their own country have variations. 😁

[@GAFUKIS]

The thing is, that spanish horchata is the original one

[@MatheusCayresdeMello]

Back to the basic and simple videos after a long period of weird recipes. Thanks, bro!

[@BN1960]

This ^^

[@l.i.a.m.b]

i like the weird ones though

[@MatheusCayresdeMello]

@@l.i.a.m.b so do I, but we need simple recipes every now and then

[@GrizzlyHillman]

Hey i have the same gooseneck kettle

[@jordanloux3883]

Could you use the soaking liquid?

[@Thingybob]

The authentic horchata is a recipe from Africa, taken to Spain by the moors. I guess that's why Spanish also call tiger nuts chufas. Use dates instead of sugar for a healthier and more authentic recipe.

[@gattetta]

It isn't known where the recipe originates but the most probable it's that was originated in Valencia, chufas grows naturally all around the mediterranean (its name come from valencian/catalan "xufla" and before latin "sufila/sufilare"), and it's known that people did almond milk at least since the romans, and orxata is made the same way. There are recipes,like this one, like omelette,flat bread, butter, orxata, that were invented by serendipity over and over in diferent places and ages. The name though is said to come from an event when the king James The Conqueror stopped at the side of a house and the woman of the house offered to him what she said was "chufa milk", the king drank from it and said "Aço no és llet. Aço és or, xata!" (This isn't milk. This is gold, girl!); but this is a legend, it's most certainly not true.

[@nah2454]

My dumb ass thought thought you were making something from Valencia oranges, my job is growing many many varieties of citrus trees ect... I own a Seedless Valencia 😂

[@glass4600]

Oh boy! Have I got some nut recipes for you; however it takes about 9 months to slow cook.

[@rachelsfoodventures54]

I tried Valencian horchata in Spain and for reasons unknown to me it tasted like chlorine? Like total pool water vibes.... I think I am just odd.

[@FlavorLab]

It does have an pretty unique taste. I watched some of your videos, your channel is pretty awesome!

[@rachelsfoodventures54]

@@FlavorLab Oh, thanks!

[@1jazzyphae]

What's funny is this recipe actually originated in North Africa with the chufa nut.
