RECIPE:
RICE MILK
4 cups hot/warm water
1 cup cooked rice (I’ve used white or brown)
1 tsp vanilla
Place all ingredients in a blender until smooth. Let the milk set for about 30
minutes, then without shaking pour the milk into another container ( i use an
old honey jar) leaving most of the sediment in the first container.
This makes about 4-4/12 cups.
Notes:
When I have used cold water and the rice was taken out of the refrigerator,
it just doesn’t come out that well. I don’t know why but its best to use warm
water and warm rice (you can nuke it if its leftovers but freshly made is best)
I have even let it set longer than 30 minutes (overnight) without it making a
difference.
