A thank you and questions

[Guest guest]

Hello all. First, a BIG thank you to those who answered my question and made

recommendations (a month ago, I think) in regards to the Salton yogurt maker. It

works great

and the yogurt is quite tasty. I wish I had started making yogurt at home

sooner.

 

Question one - Anybody have the SoyQuick SoyMilk maker? Do you like it? Is it

durable? How

does the milk taste? Can you make it flavored, vanilla for example?

 

Question two - Freezing tofu. I usually can get the Naysoya(?) brand. Do I drain

and press it

first, and then drain / press again after thawing?

 

Thanks for your help.

Hi Rita,

 

I have a different brand soy milk maker, but I've only heard positive

things about SoyQuick. I hope someone who has a SoyQuick machine will

correct me if I'm wrong, but I think flavoring is always added once the

milk has cooled down, outside of the machine. I mean you can play with

the consistency and taste by making the milk from different combinations

of beans, grains and nuts, but the recipes I've seen always talk about

adding a flavor like vanilla extract at the end, which is nice if you're

making it for more than one person or more than one reason since you

don't have to make a whole batch to have it flavored your favorite way.

We've been making vanilla flavored soy/almond milk for drinking, and

plain for cooking and baking whenever we make a (6-cup) batch. Sorry my

answer's so long! Can you tell this is my favorite new toy? ;^)

 

Peace,

Maureen
