MAKE YOUR OWN PLANT-BASED MILK

Don’t scoff, it is totally possible – just a little messy and requires a powerful food processor. Here’s how to do it

rolled oats 60 g (or 120 g nuts) water 4 cups salt a pinch vanilla pod 1, seeded (optional) whole pitted date 1 (optional)

1 Place the ingredients into a high-speed blender and blend for about 45 seconds. For oat milk, don’t blend for longer, or it will become slimy. 2 Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh strainer. For oat milk, you’ll need to strain more carefully. (You can even use a clean T-shirt or muslin). Do not squeeze the oats, as this will also produce a slimy texture. If residue remains, strain it a second time. 3 Pour into a sealable container and store in the fridge where it will keep for 3–5 days.
