Guest guest Posted October 5, 2008 Report Posted October 5, 2008 Hi everyone, I want to try making some cream soups (cream of potato, etc.). I have a couple of recipes I found online which use regular dairy milk. If I were to sub this with soy milk, would I use the amount or would I need to adjust it? Would I need to add more flour to make it thicker?? Thanks, Michelle in Virginia Quote
Guest guest Posted October 5, 2008 Report Posted October 5, 2008 I use soymilk all the time for my " cream of " soups.... The biggest issue is....you need not only " plain " but unsweetened soymilk, or the soup may not come out as you expect. I make my own soymilk, so that's not a problem for me.... Last I checked, the only plain unsweetened I found was Westsoy in an aeseptic box, but it was years ago that I checked. There may be others now, or even that one might be gone. And my soymilk " cream of " soups have fooled even those who " don't like soymilk " ....grin...!
