Soymilk Maker: Luxury Or Necessity

28/10/08 2:15 AM

Welcome back!

When I first bought my Soymilk Maker, it was more of a novelty for me. I had been buying my soymilk in the grocery and didn’t even know for along time that I could make it myself. I mean, who makes milk? I don’t live on a dairy farm, so my only access to cow’s milk was the grocery store. So when I made the switch to soy, it didn’t even occur to me that this could turn into a do-it-yourself project.

Luxury?

For me, having homemade soymilk was total luxury. I was a step up from folks that were still buying this drink in stores because I had the ability to control what I put in my soymilk and how I wanted it to taste. Then I learned how to make tofu and soy yogurt. My luxury continued.

Necessity?

Well, my perspective has quickly changed. My Soymilk Maker has become my most valued piece of kitchen equipment. It’s now a necessity!

I don’t begin to understand what the money controllers in this country have done to us and how they brought about this market crash. All I know is that it’s going to make everything around us cost more. That includes food.

The cost of eating a meat-based diet could quickly become a financial burden. What’s the cost of a pound of meat? What will it become? How many meals can a pound of meat make? What’s the cost of a pound of soybeans? Right now, it averages 2 dollars. What will it become? It’ll be less than meat.

Help Survive the Hard Times?

What can you do with a pound of soybeans? You can make 5 pots of soymilk. You could use one of those pots to make a block of tofu. One pot of soymilk can make seven servings of yogurt. Also from those 5 pots, you’ll get almost 4 cups of okara, which can easily become 20 soy burgers.

The upside to all of this; soy is a health food. It’s a perfect protein food. It’s high in fiber and loaded with minerals. This may not be the best time to invest in the stock market, but it’s a great time to invest in health and food. An additional note: dry soybeans have a long shelf life when stored in tightly sealed containers.
