Yes, I accidentally doubled the metric estimate! 3 cups is like 720 ml. My bad. As you can see I was just fumbling through the whole process XD
I think it is an awesome video! I LOVE your shirt by the way!!!!
Mic. the Vegan I will buy your shirt Sir! Oh, and I put your other almond milk video on my FB page the other day and people liked it 👍
In the notes you say 1/2 c dry soy MILK. Do you mean beans?
Growing Young
MUSLIN?
SIEVE?
What exactly do you press?
OriginalFirebuck Yeha. :/ He meant beans.
But what if my almonds aren't lactating yet???
Hmm, maybe I should be using different nuts then...
Make sure that they're grass fed, don't want any of that unhealthy peasant almonds.
Once they start lactating, make sure you take the baby almond. The baby almond will take the milk and make it so you can't steal it!
I only use ethical almonds that are pasture raised. I let them choose which other almonds to procreate with and don't artificially inseminate them....mostly.
Inseminate them!
I would only drink this if the almonds were grass fed. That's sick.
Almond milk is for baby almonds :p
LOL

Honestly, half of me laughed and half of me got triggered.
Yes, and free range.
Quick question, and not entirely on point (also I watched a bunch of your videos, but idk if you covered this in depth): how should a newly transitioning vegan (myself for 8 weeks now) combat gas? 😵💨 And what do you think about the use of Probiotics vs eating prebiotic foods?
Don't throw away the leftover "soymeal" from the bag, it's called okara and can be used in lots of recipes, like vegan okara sausages. :)
What do you do with the okara?
You can also use it instead of chickpeas for hummus
Thank you.
When I was little, my grandparents also made savory pancakes with it. They are delicious!
Well, the okara produced this way is UNCOOKED.. uncooked beans have toxic substances.. I would not eat this okara... Unless you find a way to cook it in a recipe..
I make cashew milk. 1 cup of raw cashews and 3 cups of water. Blend until the foam reaches the top of the blender. No need to filter the milk. Just give it a shake before using. No sugar, flavoring or preservatives.
I don't filter any of my plant milks. More "rustic" that way, I guess, but more nutritious too. And a lot faster.
sameee!
So are you saying we don't need that special milk bag? Did you also soak your cashews overnight?
yeah you don't need it if you don't mind having some pieces in it (amount depends on how strong your blender is). I don't usually soak mine but that would make it blend better I would assume
Great thanks!
So you're telling me that you actually *lied* to us about the process of making almond milk in the last video?!!
VegAnimation that explains why Unnatural Vegan exposed Mic, he's such a liar omg!
Of course that how you milk almonds. It worked for me.
ik i can't believe the lies the almond milk industry is telling us.
😏
Unnatural Vegan is clearly a shill that backs her view with pharmaceutical bullshit. All these recipes work and are not a a scheme developed by Mic to deceive you. They are classical ingredients made in a Vitamix. that is all
This video makes me want to go non dairy
TheElement OfFyre yes but not really, I ❤️ 🧀
Dooo eeeet. These days, there is a world of variety among plant milks. My latest favorite is oat milk, but I'm the only one who likes this. The trick is not to expect it to "taste" like dairy. Most don't. Oat milk tastes like oats. I like oats, so I enjoy oat milk (also, the viscosity is perfect and silky).
I would suggest adding the dates (sweeteners), vanilla (flavours) or chocolate (flavours)... AFTER straining, thus leaving the pulp natural for pulp recipe (such as flour, granola, soup etc)...
I need a blender. I've lived without smoothies and homemade plant milks long enough! I'm psyched to try making these!! Great video!
Tristan Devereaux You go to the grocery store to buy the nuts and soy it's not homemade
Go for it, nut milks are delicious af! If you intend to make something sweet with it, then I have a suggestion for you: lay the nuts out in an oven tray and bake them at around 200 °C for about 8-10 mins, you can achieve mindblowingly delicious flavours (be careful, though, DO NOT burn or brown them, you just want a light bake, so they can set free all their aromas. Stand close to the oven and keep watch)
You can make some smoothies with very ripe fruit, mashing them with a fork and using a lot of water. Obviously i know a blender is best though
It's actually easier to make nut milk in a vertical slow juicer. No nut bag required. I make cashew milk all the time in my slow juicer. I use 1 cup nuts to 1.5 cups water. Its soooooo much better than store bought cashew milk, hands down.
I actually made chocolate almond milk. By far the most productive thing I’ve done in the 10+ years. The reward felt amazing. I’m drinking a pretty healthy chocolate milk right now!
When do you add the hormones?
Unfermented soy is full of hormones. No need to add!
@@BetterDoneYourself WAIT
CAN YOU MAKE NATTO OUT OF TOFU??
@@frankchen4229 no, you need whole soybeans
Jaxon Basra yep. That's why I ferment all my milk and only eat very aged cheese. Fresh milk is no bueno!
@@BetterDoneYourself Soy is unique in that it contains a high concentration of isoflavones, a type of plant estrogen (phytoestrogen) that is similar in function to human estrogen but with much weaker effects. ... The two major soy isoflavones are called genistein and daidzein
Man, your videos really determined me to become vegan. for now I will be a vegetarian, until I can make the transition to veganism . Two months have passed and I am feeling way better than before!! Love your videos 💓😊
Good on you! Take your time, but here's some tricks to replace dairy already that helped me a lot:
-Switch to plant milk
-Use hummus instead of cheese on bread
-For that cheesy flavor, get some nutritional yeast - great on pastas, bread... you can even make vegan parmezan with it!
Vladimir Yuvachov already got my nutritional yeast, haha. The thing that gives me the most problems are eggs. The only days that are not vegan rn are the days I eat eggs
Vladimir Yuvachov and thanks for your piece of advice ❤️
The only difference is dairy... it's not that big of a change.
Man up!
Ahh, I see! That's great!
What do you use the eggs for? If it's for omelettes a great replacement would be a tofu scramble - if it's for baking, there's quite many nice vegan pastry recipes and whatnot out there too! But if you simply like boiled eggs I suppose I can't think of an immediate replacement to be honest.
And no problem! :D Hope it doesn't come across as pushy, just trying to help out! It usually takes some time to transition, but knowing the right recipes makes it much easier.
I never peel my nuts before blending them. Ain't nobody got time for that.
Just use blanched almonds, which is just almonds dunked in hot water to get their skins off.
Thanks, but usually I use walnuts.
I've made almond milk with almonds soaked overnight. I've never peeled them.
Kasia Pe wow really? Mind blown. Never thought of WALNUT milk? Is it very bitter? Also, if you don’t take the skin off the almonds when you make it, does it taste grainy?
I'm still laughing. I never peel my nuts either
This is amazing!
You're amazing!
Sorsha Hi queen!
So are you!
Troll vegan
Shorsha!
I really wanted some of that chocolate hazelnut milk, so I got up to soak some hazelnuts for tomorrow morning. I was prepping the stuff so loudly in the kitchen that I woke my parents in the middle of the night. Still worth it 😄
I've never removed the skins from my almonds and the milk comes out just fine. I like to add a pinch of salt to bring out the flavor of the almonds and enhance the sweetness of the dates.
I just want to say thank you so very much. Because I am lactose intolerant. This is the best way I would like to make my plant based milk.
3 cups of water would be 750ml... 1.5 litres is like 6 cups.
Damn imperial measurements... when is the US finally going to switch to the metric system like normal people :')
Metric system ftw!
In engineering a lot of stuff is still in imperial in all other country's.. its fucked.. you just have to learn both.
It's such a pain in the ass when using US recipes, I'll never understand. Pretty much everyone everywhere agrees the metric system is much more user-friendly and logical - why it hasn't changed yet is really a complete mystery to me.
Don't blame US technical people. Most of us would like to get the hell off this stupid units system. The absolute *_worst_* are project I have worked on where some of the units are SI and others English. One project had a major part that was 8 cm by 8 cm by 8 thousandth of an inch thick! Why wasn't thickness given in millimeters? Because the thin films it was built up from were all spec'ed in mils (thousandths of an inch). In a current project I have a generator being driven by a turbine engine. The power coming from the turbine is given in horsepower and the power of the generator is given in watts. At least on this one I insisted that we all work in one unit for power and since we are dealing with electrical power output which is always watts, I got my turbine guy to switch to watts. So I feel your pain.
Vlad. Why don't you just buy yourself some cups?
I've got all three:
Cups
pound/ounces
kilograms/grams/litres etc.
I actually quite like the simplicity of cups.
4:52 that is called Okara in Japanese, you can use that to make couscous or deep fried croquettes
The naked almonds made me uncomfortable
😂😂😂
U have 69 likes 😂 ,i was gonna like but im not gonna mess it up lol
Kristin R. Free the almond nipples.

Lol milking the almonds was jokes!!! ;) never realised it's so easy to make soy or almond milk..... need to make this :)
Let's Do Better Now you mean Almond juice..... :/

Exactly the video that I need right now. Thanks! 😊👍
The first time I made soy milk was after first becoming vegetarian in 1994, in the Dark Ages Before Nutmilk Bags. The experience . . . "catastrophe" doesn't even _begin_ to cover it. I really enjoyed these tutorials, filmed in your usual confident/self-effacing style : ) TFP!
Very entertaining, it's nice to see you in a more relaxed setting. I also wanted to say that I listen to you at work, you keep me motivated and informed. I just love your content!
I love the pinewood in your house. Reminds e of home❤️
I'm a Canadian!! Glad you liked it here :)
Dude this is wicked awesome. Shout out to your for posting this. I will have to try to make each of these!
this looks so amazingly easy, I am for sure going to try this! ...have to search one of those nut bags, they seem super convenient... thank you so much Mic the Vegan
Brilliant. I just ordered a nut milk bag....
Mic! You videos are informative and inspirational! I love your sense of humour, and I appreciate the level of scientific detail you incorporate in your work. Keep it up!! 🌱🐄🐖
Spot on comment Sarah Robbins.
Mic the Vegan is the King of the Vegans.
What an intelligent and capable and very well meaning (caring) person Mic the Vegan is.
I work to spend my limited UA-cam time with Michael Greger and Mic the Vegan - two very good influences and sources
Hey Mic just letting you know I sit through the entire ad on your videos. Bless this channel.
Yes!! Thanks Mic. the Vegan!
I LOVE THE SHIRT!
Even in a recipe video you can't go without linking at least one study 😂 love it!
I LOVE that shirt!!! Can't wait for you to release it!!!
Brilliant video. I'm going to try these. Thanks!
I love the background in this video 💙!
So I don't have to impregnate the almonds?
or take them out for a date either 🤦🏻♂️😂
No you have to milk the almonds udders.
Loved seeing you in the kitchen, you should keep doing more recipes ❤️😍 That shirt is awesome too
i'm so excited to try this!
My tips: I don't bother to skin the nuts. The skin will be strained out anyway. I also prefer a fine mesh strainer over a nut milk bag. It's much less work for your hands, and easier to clean. By the way, did you know you can also make milk with melon seeds? Free food!
Hmmm...milk with melon seeds. That sounds interesting.
Thank you Mic. Enjoyed the video. I will try these in my new Vitamix blender - I finally got one! I made some almond-cashew milk today & left it thick, did not strain it but I did skin the almonds. I still have to try soy milk and the choc hazelnut milk looks yummy! Thanks
Great video as always! I enjoyed seeing your personality shine through in this one 😊
Your recipe videos are the best. So entertaining. I snickered the whole way through!
Thanks for your fun and inspirational videos! For the hazelnut and almond milks, you don't have to strain them through a nut milk bag; if you have a VitaMix or other high-speed blender, you could drink them straight up, and in that way you'll get more fiber.
You make me laugh. You're so relatable! "I'm just making this up as I go" me with everything when cooking hahaha.
This is awesome! Thank you!!
This is awesome!!!!!!! Definitely gonna try that hazelnut milk recipe! Very excited about that.
I love the "but I'm a guy and don't read instructions" 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Ok, let's not put plant milk companies out of business. That would be really bad. They need to exist and compete with dairy. The last one is like vegan liquid nutella.
most people probably arent going to do this stuff anyway. it takes way more effort than just grabbing a carton even if it costs less.
Totally aesthetically pleasing.
Thank you for the idea with fortification! Cool!
I love the vegan for arteries shirt!
I defnitely prefer to milk a bag instead of a poor cow! And also these milks are delicious :D
i always look for easy clear recipes to follow and i guess i found my go to recipe. i did try the soy milk today and it tasted great.Thanks for sharing
Thank you Mike you are the best keep them coming
How about starting with the amount of soaked almonds or other nuts that is right for the amount of milk you put in your morning smoothie and blending with the right amount of water. Then instead of straining it, just add your frozen fruits, greens, flax seed and dates and blending the whole thing up? I would assume that with the thick smoothie the pulp from the nuts wouldn't clump or be noticeable. And all of the pulp will add fiber.
Oh. My gosh. That's brilliant! I'm going to try this...
I was thinking the same. Why strain out the almond bits?
200 iq
Nice video! I am still in transition, but sometimes I feel like I'm too old to gain the benefits of veganism... I have lost my cravings for meat, so that's not an issue. I need a "vegan for old people" support group! ☝️
Lisa Morelli Daly lol you're never too old to make a change and see results. You'll probably experience overall more longevity. I've seen older vegans. You'll find some like minded people.
You're not too old to gain the benefits. Think about heart disease, diabetes, cancer and weight problems. Old people, like me, have those problems big time. And going plant based gets rid of them.
I've been vegan or vegetarian since 1989, when I was 38. Went whole foods plant based in February of this year at the ripe old age of 65. You're never too old.
I'm 66 and just went vegan. Never too late
I went whole food plant based no added oil in February at 65 and a half. I'm noww 66, 45 pounds lighter, off insulin, and reduced meds for diabetes. BP 110/70, cholesterol under 160, resting pulse 60. You're never too old to go vegan!
Cooking with Mic, awesome!
I love this video!!! Can't wait to make these
I was wondering is it would hurt to leave the soy skins on since you are going to blend it anyway. Do the soy bean skins impart any flavor or changes to texture if they are blended in before you strain it?
Wait .... so you don't have to wake up at 4 am🤔
That shirt is awesome btw💚
That was great! I'm anticipating more similarly top-quality cooking vids in the near future
I've just subscribed and this is the second video I've watched, both have been informative and entertaining! Love the sense of humour! Will be making my own "milk" from now on.
Frankly, you're my vegan crush
Am I the only weirdo who likes to drink mixture of almond, cashew and peanut milk? I mean there is only one plant based milk readily available where I live (soy milk) so I just make my own plant based milk by mixing these three milks. AM I THE ONLY WEIRDO HERE???
That actually sounds pretty good.
I am going to go out on a limb here and say yes, you are definitely the only weirdo here. The rest of us are just decidedly odd.
papparocket hahaha
i dont but tht sounds like a delicious idea!
Thoughts On
Banana, 🍌Banana milk drinker, here, (Banana milk is my usual, go to, first, because I have no high powered blender, and second, no nut milk bag.) so, hey, Where's the carob? I'm having a rough time finding carob anywhere, and chocolate powder seems to have too much caffiene. (irregular💓 heartbeat bothering me after a tiny bit on my peaches. ) 😇🍌,🥜
Thanks for the motivation Mic, I finally made soy milk again after years, keep it up!
Love this video. Hope you do more like this.
Notification squad ma bois!
Saving to buy a Vitamix...then the world...WILL BE MIIIINE!!!! muahahahahaha
😅
Whenever I go to a vegan's house and they don't have a Vitamix, I know that they aren't serious vegans :-D
papparocket so true...I'm totally a clown vegan...!!! 😜
a Nutri bullet works just as well as a Vitamix, it's just a bit smaller, but 1/10th of the price.
Maybe they are just poor vegans.
NinJA Too!
i absolutely love watching you Mic
This video is AWESOME ! I will finally give it a shot !
"Tastes like water" 😅 that mistake sounds like something I would do lol
My blender almost caught fire when I tried to make a kale smoothie. It just couldn't cut through the kale. I don't think this is going to work out either lol.
tuzmo you most definitely need a new blender 😂
Great video, and thank you for the recipes !
Great recipe!! Have to get those bags
isn't 3 cups actually about 750 ml / 0.75 l ?
Leonini 720ml
Leonini 709,765 ml*
@@JDBob3 hey...that's lot of information for my tiny brain
I don't feel like there is an advantage to using the dates over convention sugar, because you are filtering out the fiber anyway, so it would be the same blood sugar response as regular sugar.
Dudefromspace567
No you are filtering not all the fiber just some of it
Also phytonutrients & minerals & vitamins
John Constantin after high speed blending there is no fiber left
Then just put the almond milk back in the blender after you squeeze the pulp out, add the dates and blend it again.
Veinous Sure, the fibre does not disappear, it just becomes useless.
dobster
Do you know what fiber is? You cant form glucose from fiber just by blending it
Thx Mic for a great video...I will definitely try making my own!
Whoop whoop!! Thank you for the tutorial!
ok i am not American so 1/2 a cup is how many grams?
Dark Enforcer depends what you measure. In water its around 125ml.
Cup is a volume measure and grams is weight -- which varies by ingredient, of course.
70g for 1/2 cup of almonds or hazelnuts
90g for 1/2 cup of dry soybeans
For water, each cup is about 250ml.
Use the internet for conversions. Just type in cups to grams.
Hey Mic!
Very interesting Video, Thanks! :)
Have you heard about a pretty recent study which claims B12-supplementation raises lung-cancer risk 30-40% in men?
Dr. McDougall posted this link today: www.nutraingredients-usa.com/Research/Statistical-chance-Academia-and-industry-cast-doubt-on-B-vitamin-lung-cancer-links
James, that study was done ONLY on men who smoke and has no known connection to non-smokers. You gotta read the articles, not just the headlines.

Awesome, thanks again Mic!
I make my almond milk the easy way by using almond butter instead of almond, 2 tbs or so with 2 cups of distilled water and a couple of dates or maple syrup. I also do this sunflower seed butter and other nut butters.
tastes like water. lol
Did you get the part where you add almonds or hazelnuts to the water? Maybe that is where you went astray. ;-)
Actually if you are comparing this almond milk to commercial almond milk it will be thinner because the stuff you can by in the store has thickeners like carrageenan or guar gum and the like added to make it taste "creamer". It is an illusion, but if you want to add this illusion to your homemade stuff I bet you could add a couple teaspoons of ground flaxseed or chia seeds before you blend it. I have never done that myself, just extrapolating from my experience cooking with "flax eggs" as a thickener/binder replacement for eggs.
papparocket he is referencing the video.the guy said almond milk tasted like water
Nut bag on order. Thanks for showing how easy it really is.
Thanks for mentioning about the fortification/preservation of the milks with the pills.
Very entertaining and informative! Looking forward to making these.
Wonderful shirt design!
