Does anyone have recipes for these?

For the rice milk..what rice would you use? I have organic basmati in the house.

And for sesame milk...When you buy the sesame seeds do they say "raw".


I've been making almond milk, but with the controversy, I'd like to be making other milks.

Why not do a brazil/cashew mylk? Really ANY nut will do.

I'm not sure about the rice. And sesame seeds SHOULD say raw...

I have raw cashews and will try. do you soak them like almonds? What is the ratio with blending? with almonds I did 1 cup soaked almonds to 3 cups of water.

Yes, I soak them and I think that's a good ratio. I never measure. I just do what "feels" right. Actually what fills up the cup in my soymilk maker (lol). But that sounds about right...

I found a recipe and it had a 1:2 ratio...I'll try it and see which way I like it.

What about vaccum sealing our soaking nuts? Would that help to expedite the soaking? I only ask this because some times I can't keep enough made. We go through alot.

I don't know about vacuum sealing bags. Never had 'em and more than likely never will. Soaking and putting them in the fridge helps. One just has to remember, this is FRESH food, which does perish way quicker.
I would say just keep on having a supply soaking. That's what I do.
