Soaking Water

[Gittel]

Does anyone use the water that nuts have soaked in? I just hate to throw away something that may be of value. Thanks!

Hi Gittel -

it might be of value for killing weeds or something of that nature. I wouldn't use it for anything living as I would think it has enzyme inhibitors in it (from the soaked nuts - that is why it is good to soak the nuts...to get rid of those).

Water from soaked fruit is a different story...great in smoothies and other foods.

Hope this helps!
