- Making your own soy milk is super easy and super cheap! All you need is some soy beans, water, a blender, a pot to cook it in and something to strain the milk like a nut milk bag, a jelly bag, or a few layers of cheesecloth.
When you learn how to make homemade soy milk, you can flavour it with your choice of sweetener for drinking OR use the plain soy milk to make other things like your own tofu or cultured cheese. Keep in mind that this soy milk tastes very different from most commercial brands which usually have a dozen ingredients or more. But this is so easy and super cheap to make, I hope you’ll try it.
If you are looking for how to make soy milk for making tofu, you've come to the right place! There are other ways to make soy milk but THIS ONE is ideal when you will be turning it into tofu.

EASY SOY MILK RECIPE
Printable recipe and full story: www.marystestkitchen.com/diy-s...
Makes about 5 cups
INGREDIENTS
1 1/4 US cups dry soy beans (200g)
5 cups water (1200ml), plus more for soaking and rinsing
Optional sweetener to taste (like sugar, agave, maple syrup or stevia)
DIRECTIONS
Soak the beans in fresh water for one or two days in a large container. Make sure there is enough room for the beans to expand to triple their size. Add water if the water level drops below the top of the beans.
Drain the beans and transfer to a large bowl. Add enough water to completely submerge the beans.
Rub the beans between your fingers to remove the skins. Remove the skins from the bowl by mixing the beans around and letting the beans settle to the bottom. Then skim the top to get at the loose skins. Discard the skins. Try to get most of the skins but don't worry if there are a few left.
Drain the beans.
Blend the beans with 5 cups of water until the beans well pureed. This took about one minute with my regular 12 speed Oster Blender on the Liquefy setting. If you have a high speed blender, take care not to over blend. You may need to work in a couple batches depending on your blender's capacity.
Strain the liquid into a large pot using a nut milk bag, jelly bag or a few layers of cheesecloth over a colander or sieve. The liquid will be your soy milk. The pulp, known as okara, can be discarded or used in other recipes.
Heat the milk on high heat until boiling while stirring regularly. The milk tends to form a skin at the bottom of the pot so stirring is necessary to keep this from building up. During this process, a skin may form at the top; this is normal and known as yuba. The yuba can be stirred back into the milk or skimmed off.
Let the milk boil for a couple minutes; stir and reduce the temperature as needed to prevent the milk from bubbling over.
Reduce the heat to medium or medium low. At this point, it's a good idea to taste the milk. It may be a bit beany tasting and bitter. As the milk is cooked, the beany and bitter taste will be reduced. Let the milk simmer for anywhere between 10 minutes to 2 hours. How long is up to you.
When ready, strain the milk into a container.
Serve the milk hot or cold. Add sweetener to taste. I use about 1 or 2 teaspoons of maple syrup per cup.
NOTES
Store your fresh soy milk in the fridge for up to 3 days. The leftover soymilk pulp (okara) will also stay fresh in the fridge for about 3 days.

Update! Don't worry about the skins! It doesn't make much difference to the soy milk. It does keep more fiber in your leftover okara though.
Mary's Test Kitchen | Vegan Cooking After drinking soy milk i felt vomit sensation please help me
@Ranga Samy, you might have an intolerance. Sadly, if that's the case, you should probably avoid soy milk.
Mary's Test Kitchen can i keep the milk in the refrigerator so i can drink it later .. if yes for how long should I keep it and will it lose its nutritions ?
Can I add some off-the-shelf perservative to make it last more than 3 days in the refrigerator (I could just freeze it, but if not that) ? I have heard probably benzyl benzoate works ok. Any opinions?
Lazy me is happy to hear
I actually prefer this method to the "new" video you did for the "easy" way. I feel like it's thicker and yields way more. I know this video is 4 years old, but I just want to thank you for making these. I recently started to step into going vegan and these videos
make things a lot easier
Seriously your voice is so cute and soothing to me I can stop watching your wonderful and educational videos. Thank you so much you are doing wonderful things sharing on UA-cam. I'm a pretty new vegan for only about a month now. You seem like such a sweet heart. Much love, Olivia
Your videos are so professional and informative. Not too little or too much info and moves at a great pace. I wish I found you sooner!
@Ital Raphael Oron Thanks for your question, dear. I cannot reply to your comment directly as your Google settings don't allow it. If this is unintentional, you can fix this in your settings. For how to do this, just google "Why can't other reply to my comments on youtube."
To answer your question, The two step process is designed to reduce the beany flavour/ bitterness of the soymilk. This method is just a bit more simple. However, I'm experimenting with another method that is supposed to be even more simple and result in a less beany taste. I will make an updated video if the experiment works out. :-) Thanks again for your comment and thank you for watching!
is it ok... if i do not remove the skin?
superman yes
I have a question. Do i need to like wash the beans before soaking them for those 2 days?
Nice 👌- I just figured out that I was lactose intolerant a few months ago. I tried soy milk and have loved it ever since. I think the maple syrup in hot soy sounds tasty.
Thank you for producing this video, Mary. I search for "simple soy milk" because this week, I tried a store bought soy milk that gave me digestive problems. I stopped using it on my granola cereal and the problem went away. This is not true of all store bought soy milks, but this particular one boasted of being "plus". I read the ingredients on the box. It had seventeen ingredients. I think that one of those ingredients was causing me digestive problems. I am lactose intolerant so going back to milk for my cereal is not a solution. It's good to know that soy milk does not have to be complicated.
Thank you for making and sharing this easy to follow video. I've already bookmarked it and will refer back to it as soon as I buy some soy beans.
i love how everything is re-usable
Pandora Thank you, dear! I appreciate that!
i use okara instead of firm tofu when making soybean curd cheese
itdoesnttastelikechicken.com/quick-easy-vegan-cottage-cheese/
Super Easy Explanation made all my doubts clear altogether. Thanks :)
Youre so cool! I dont suppose Ive see anything like this before. So nice to search out any individual with some authentic thoughts on this subject. really thank you for starting this up. this youtube video is one thing that is needed on the internet, someone with somewhat originality. useful job for bringing one thing new to the internet!
I'm so excited to see this video & your tofu video....yeyyy now I'll make my own fresh tofu, THANKS!
Ma'am I am from India and here, we largely stay away from readymade foods and prefer homemade recipes. I was looking for affordable ways of taking protein and came across couple of your videos.. These are so nice and helpful! Keep up the good work and looking forward to your new homemade dishes for a fitter body. :)
Me too
That's how I found this channel
Why "MA'AM"?
Looks amazing as usual! We will surely make a recipe for this at some point, but for now I will simply use this one as it looks perfect ;)
Thank you so much!
I love these videos. Short sweet and to the point.
Thank you so much miss! I have been wanting to do this for some time but the book that I have makes it look so involved that I have put it off. This recipe is super simple and so much easier than any I have seen so far. I appreciate your efforts so much!
Thanks for the kind words, dearie
@Mary, you’re the best! Thank you so much for teaching your method. I love it and I have been making soy milk this way at least once a week!
Made this milk !!!! And then made the tofu!!! 🙌🏾😍 You the bomb!!!!
Huh? Bomb?? Tf
Will definitely try this one out. Thank you for sharing❤
1 cup dry makes 3 cups soaked. Remove skins or not. Blend beans. Remove pulp. Use it for some thing else. 5 cups water for 1 cup dry bean. Cook to remove raw bean taste.
yes! Great summary!
When I made it myself. I was very satisfied. Thank you so much. I can't thank u enough
I am currently sipping a cup of the soy milk with maple syrup and I have to say it is quite good.
I love your name
Love this video. I will definitely try this recipe. Thanks!
Nancy Red Yay! I hope you'll let me know how it turns out for you. :-) Thanks for the kind comment!
Very helpful and perfectly explained
Very easy, thank you for this video 📹 👍 Buying Soy beans in Bulk makes sense, if for no other reason than its much less expensive than buying whole Milk.
Thank you very much for this video! My family has been making black bean soymilk so far, and so this was the recipe we chose to try first with soybeans.
It was delicious and we were all wowed by the delicious taste! Thank you so much!
Also we cooked the milk for 20 minutes...
You're welcome! It's good to hear that it works just as well with black soybeans. Thanks for sharing :-)
This channel deserves more subscribers! Thanks for the video.
wow, it came out just beautiful
Tried making this earlier and my family loved it!!! 🥺🥺 will make it again tomorrow morning. Thank you soooo much for the simple yet promising process. The soy milk was soooo tasty. 💖
Glad you liked it!!
@@marystestkitchen I even have another batch of soybeans soaked right nowww. Thanks so much and stay safe! 🙏💕
@@peplum2809 That's so great to hear. And same to you. Stay well and safe
I recommend to add ginger into it.
put some palm sugar or honey as sweetener.
Perfect drink during the winter.
Or dates!😸😍😍😋
Soyboys
@@imposterbread Just a suggestion!😂
I love the taste of ginger.
Your video is succinct and well annotated without all the ers, hoos,haas, and unnecessary sidebars. A 2 thumbs up from me!! 3 and a half minutes of pure useful information.
Leo Vinetti Thank you very much for the kind compliment :-) I am so glad you've found this video useful.
This is soo great tahnk you so much :)
I put my okara in my sweet bread and they're delicious.
thank you for making this tutorial! I'm currently watching a few tutorials on the subject, what's the difference between doing your way and getting the okara, and boiling the beans first and then blend them? is it just that you get the okara your way, or is the taste different? thanks!!
+Elisa Groli Watch my new soy milk tutorial which is linked in the description. This one is more beany but is easier to squeeze the milk. The new way is quicker (no soaking required) and has less of a beany taste.
will try tomorrow. Thanks
I had no idea it was SO easy!
Thanks!
sonjevity Simple, easy but does require a bit of effort. :-) I'm glad you found this video informative.
Mary, could you make more recipes with okara, please? Love your videos!!!
in the works ;-) Thanks, dearie!
Great video! I read the okara can be used as a substitute for egg in baked recipes. I use it to make homemade veggie burgers. Today I used the soy milk and okara to make bread pudding with banana and raisins, and you cannot taste the difference vs. dairy milk and eggs. Delicious!
+Michele Paccione I had not heard of using okara for an egg replacement but I can see how it could be! Thank you so much for sharing your experience with using okara in baking :-)
quick and easy....love it. thanks for the instructions...
izan bujang You're welcome, my dear. Thanks for watching!
I knew there was a reason beyond your recipes why I liked you -- you're Canadian! :) I love Canada and I fly a Canadian flag at my home from time to time. And I love what you're doing on UA-cam, Mary. Keep up the great work!
Aha! You figured it out! Lol Thanks so much for your very kind comment. :-) It means a lot to me.
You Make all recipes easy
raj salunke thank you! That's my goal. Thanks for watching :-)
The recipe looks so easy to make. I've made soy milk once & didn't like it at all. Going to make it your way, for sure. Thank you.
Well and splendidly explained.... Loved the way you show the process...
thanks a lot!
Omg where have you been all my life! So in love with your channel!!!!!
Here!!!
thnx 4 ur hlelp more than that nice presentation skills
+Funfrme Kik Thank you!
I made this with pinto beans and it turned out great!
Thank you so much for this recipe.
It was super helpful! 😊
I also followed the tofu-making recipe that is after this one and it also came out great.
I'm so happy I found this webpage
Love your channel, and will be trying this soon 😆
+carly thompson thank you and good luck!
Thank you, that was very educational!
You're welcome! 😃 thanks so much for watching
Holy crap that was educational.
you're welcome 🤗
You should test a fermented cheese recipe with the okara :) it's going to be great (probably) and soy is very nutritious and less expensive than cashew or almonds...
Maybe!
Eduardo Bertazzo nope but ok in veg burgers ground up or as fiber.
It's been skin
You can not make cheese
Thanks Mary ! Awesome😊
Thank you. I will try.
Have you ever made yogurt from your homemade soy milk? Thank you❤
No but Peaceful Cuisine has a video on that. :-)
when rehydrating the dry soy beans does it need to be in a refrigerator?
THank you for the video! I look forward to giving this a go. :)
Hope you enjoy it!
This is super easy.. Thanks for this video....You rock :)
+harmeet singh You're most welcome. Thanks for the kind comment, dear :-)
yes show us what to do with the mass of cheeseeey looking stuff afterwards
I have a SoyaJoy to make soy milk. It's very easy to use. Anything you make with the Okara will be cool.
I had to google that! lol Sounds super handy. I am experimenting with a new okara recipe right now! So far, they taste incredible and I can't wait to share!
Thank you for the recipe
I try this matter its was amazing
You're most welcome! Have fun with it!
O M G I just made this and tasting it at the very end with maple syrup was magical! I haven't tried the "updated" version but honestly I'm satisfied with this recipe. 🙌
ya! Way to go!
dear madam,
i have a doubt can we use soya milk without extracting soymilk pulp (okara)
It wouldn't be soy milk so much as soy slurry if you don't remove the pulp...You can try it but I don't think it would be very good.
tried, wasnt too bad
Please show us a video with your leftovers
+Heather Wacker Hi dear, you can find my Okara Sea Burgers recipe on this channel :-) I also throw the okara into bread recipes (just a half cup or so to replace some of the flour) and into seitan sometimes.
Yes I found it thank you so much going to have to try them!
Mary's Test Kitchen
Thanks for the recipe.
Most welcome 😊
thank you for sharing this video.
Can we use the green soy beans? Can't find the yellow ones
Jeremy VDB rEdamame?
That lookike bright green lima beans usually sold frozen
Is that what u mean?
No you cant
Jeremy VDB you can find them in health food stores n online or Asian markets easy
Its 3 euros for one litre of soy milk here, I should so this.
I made soy milk yesterday, and I mixed flour and seasoning into my okara to make fried fritters, which I had with some sweet Thai pepper sauce. So good!
I loved your channel!!! :) great recipes!!! totally subscribed!
Thank you!
I really really like soy milk!!!!!!
that's fantastic :-)

SOOOY BOOOYYY
@tabby cat Are you the ultimate soy boy?
Me too
You can use the pulp of the soy milk for carrot patties or pancake. It's really yummy 😋
nice tip!
So inspiring!! All the videos are so well made!
Thank you so much!
What favor did you add to the soya beea. Milk.
What other favor can l add to make it nice to drink.
I had tried this and it is awesome
Update: did this recipe turned out really well. Only question is that my soymilk turns to tofu when I store it in the fridge for 2 days. Help.
Wow I didn’t know that that’s really cool. I’m not sure how to help though
I surely recomend you to make exactly what you need, for the day u need it.
@@traumatizedmacasio8682 i wanted to sell some but idk how to sell it when it truns to tofu 2 days after haha
Are you soaking your beans in the fridge? I would recommend that if you don't already to prevent early fermentation.
Selling homemade soy milk without extra preservatives or pastuerization would be challenging though. The protein, fat and water content just make it so condusive to fermentation. It just won't last long.
I absolutely am informed about soy products (in the U.S.) and yes, with the exception of organic tofu, soy products are ALL tampered with by Monsanto (who puts in fungicides, pesticides and germicides). This is why I came to see how much trouble it would be to make some. It’s a lot more time consuming but can replace, in certain recipes, the almond milk and other nut milks. So I’m going for it. I’ve been recovering from cancer by eliminating non organic and processed foods (who knew) as part of a drastic lifestyle change. Having had no chemo or radiation I can only attribute my recovery to these changes (and the fact there’s lots of links between cancer and animal consumption now that’s not backed by Big Pharma trials). Bone cancer in spine, sacrum, hips, sternum and breast. Now they can’t find ANY. Kind of living proof (for me).
Just had another CT PetScan and after 1.5 years I’m STILL cancer free. The doctor said to just keep doing whatever I’m doing. No meat, no dairy, no meats, no sweets (unless natural) and no refi ed foods. It works for me. Finally!
Congratulations on your recovery! I am always so excited when I hear about any recovery with out the use the "Big Pharma", chemo or radiation. I personally would NEVER do chemo or radiation, it has been proven that it does more harm than good. We have just been brain washed, so they can make the almighty $$$$. Wishing you all the very best....
this is amazing.
Fuck
i think gmos are fine
That was great! Thanks! 😊
Glad you liked it!
Thank you for sharing this information

I'm not vegan- or even vegetarian (I only consume ethically sourced meats- so usually fish I catch myself or eggs from my parent's pet chickens). But I'm planning a very lengthy bike trip, so I'm sourcing multi-use, DIY, cheap and easy to stretch out food stuffs.
This is perfect- I can have milk AND protein base for burgers or other meals all out of the same packet of dry goods. Why carry two different bags when I can get the two out of one item?
So efficient, weight wise and money wise.

Ahaaa..so easy. Thanks for sharing the video
You're most welcome!
now I know the dark truth of soy milk
Kent Peneda if it's not coming from titties it's not milk it's a Juice
@@Airman.. Do you call it coconut juice also? Also, what she does is not juicing.
I don't understand why you have to remove the skins when none of that is going to end up in the milk. I have made soy milk without removing the skins and it tasted just fine to me.
+Semi Veg There is a difference in the flavour. I've tried batches with and without using the same batch of beans. But it's not huge and you can do what you like :-)
+Semi Veg As I've noted in the pinned comment on this video :-)
Oh I'm sorry, I didn't even notice that! Thanks for replying!

If humans were inclined towards such foods, human cruelty to animals could be prevented.😰🥺😓
yeaah
Chrome ikr who cares that they forcefully impregnate the cows by practically sticking their arms up the cows rectum or that their babies get taken away from them hours after birth to either do that cycle it’s mom had to endure or become veal. Or is it that they get their horns and tails cut off or is it that they get tortured and then killed to become hamburgers after they can’t produce milk. It’s funny how Americans are when it comes to their meat because they love to think these animals can’t feel shit or doesn’t know what the animals face cause I know for a fact you haven’t done research or watched any videos.

Love this! I used to make our own milk when my daughter was small, I'm getting back to it, because you can make so many things with it. I do hope you are not boiling it in an Aluminium pot!?
Wonderful info❤
Thank you so much for the information

BTW your whole process was so clean and easy😊
thank you!
Looks good!
Thank you!
Great job

Thank you!
I am trying to be more efficient with making soymilk without having to buy a soymilk machine, so I found it works for me to make the puree in advance, freeze it, and later take some out, add water, cook and strain. Then I won't have to pull out and wash the blender too often. I tried freezing the milk but it separates and requires using the blender again to homogenize it.
I also noticed if prior to cooking the soy pulp, if I let the puree rest for an hour it does not foam up as much when heated, which makes life so much easier.
Thanks for sharing ❤️
You're most welcome 🤗
Thank you so much! This was the best video I found ❤️
