  • Rice Milk

    Recipe

    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.
