Notes
The Vitamix makes it possible to completely puree the nutritious okara (soy pulp) into this creamy, nutty soy milk. Finished soy milk stores for several days in the refrigerator but may settle. Shake well to recombine.
It's best to allow soy beans to soak at least overnight and preferably for 24 hours. If you soak and steam extra soy beans, you'll have plenty to refrigerate or freeze for next time. Portioned frozen soy beans can be used to make fresh soy milk straight out of the freezer, blend for an extra minute so the beans can thaw.
Popular flavored soy milks on the market include vanilla, matcha, chocolate, and black sesame. To make your own, add vanilla extract/vanilla paste, matcha powder, cocoa powder, or black sesame powder with the supplements. The addition of ginger is primarily to reduce beaniness 去腥; it's slightly warm but very mild and would work well with any of these flavors.
This recipe works for other types of beans or a blend of beans. Adzuki 红豆 and mung beans 绿豆 are great choices. You may need to adjust steaming time.
因为用的是高马力的维他密斯搅拌器，豆腐渣已完全融入豆浆。这样我们的自制豆浆特别营养健康：高纤维，高蛋白，低热卡。添加钙和维生素D都有利于骨骼健康，比牛奶的营养成分还高。
建议每次多蒸几份黄豆，蒸熟的豆子可以冰箱或冰柜保鲜。下次做新鲜豆浆直接拿来打，无需解冻，用维他密斯多打一分钟即可。
喜欢喝新鲜口味的同学可以在维生素的同时加黑芝麻粉，抹茶粉，巧克力粉，香草液，等香料。该食谱里生姜是为了去腥，配上这些口味都特别好喝！除了黄豆以外也可以同样配方换部分红豆或绿豆。
