Raw Almond Mylk - Vegan MoFo 2013 Day 1
Happy MoFo to you
Happy MoFo to yooooou
Happy MoFo, happy MoFo
HaPPy MooooFoooo toooooo yoooooooooou
Welcome to the Vegan Month of Food 2013 everyone! If you didn't already guess, the Happy MoFo song is sung to the tune of the Happy Birthday song. :D
Throughout the month of September, I'll be sharing recipes for Raw Vegan Foods here on my blog. It's been a good challenge for me, pushing myself to create completely raw recipes. I have put together a bunch of dishes over the past couple of weeks and I'm really happy and excited to be sharing them with you over the coming days. I still need to create many more recipes so that I can do at least twenty and possibly thirty blog posts this month.
So far, all the recipes I've concocted are 100% raw and I'm very proud of that. Down the line, there's a chance I might cheat a bit here and there and use one or two non-raw ingredients. But I will ensure that even those recipes are at least 80% raw.
I'm going to focus on using primarily local ingredients in my recipes so that people in India can attempt raw, vegan foods with what is easily accessible to them. I will occasionally indulge in speciality raw food products that might not be available in India. When I do, I'll share links so you can order them online and import them if you wish to do so.
Now that the intro is over, let's go to my first recipe offering for Vegan Mofo 2013! :)
I thought I'd cover the basics first. Since I'll be using Almond Mylk, in a couple of recipes later, I figured I'd start off by sharing a simple, step-by-step micro tutorial on making Raw Almond Mylk.
Enjoy! :)
See you back here tomorrow. I'm off to blog hop now and check out all the amazing recipes that everyone else has posted on Day 1 of Vegan MoFo 2013. :)

DeleteLove your theme Susmitha! Almond milk was the first step I made into Vegandom years ago. I remember taking the first sip, not knowing what on earth it would be like and then falling in love. Can't imagine not having my daily dose now days.
ReplyDeleteGreat video. Looking forward to the next Raw adventure!
Thank you Angela. :)
DeleteI discovered Almond Mylk long after turning vegan but even I fell in love with it at first sip. It's sooooo yummy!
I really enjoyed your how to video! Almond milk is one of my favorite nut milks, especially when it's homemade. I can't wait to follow along and see everything you create this month!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Cadry. :)
DeleteIt's going to be an awesome month of blogging and blog hopping for all of us. :)

ReplyDeleteThanks Richa. :)
DeleteCreating some guided meditations is something that's been on my to-do list for a while now. I really go to get around to working on them.
Oh, you should! I agree with Richa & Gigi that your voice is incredibly soothing. I would love to hear one of your meditations.
DeleteHaha thanks Cadry. :)

ReplyDeleteHehe thanks Mel. :D
DeleteOoh, looking forward to seeing some more raw recipes. I went raw food for my first VeganMoFo back in 2010 but haven't really experimented that much since. Happy 'MoFo!
ReplyDeleteThanks Alex! Happy MoFo to you too. :)
DeleteHappy MoFo to yooouuuuuuuuuu!!! I've always wanted to attempt to make my own almond milk....but I'm scared!! ;)
ReplyDeleteNow that you see how easy it is, you don't have to be scared anymore, Kylie. :D
DeleteHome made almond mylk is soooooo much better than the store bought kind. Believe me. :)
Can we use almond milk to make coffee? Can the milk be boiled with coffee decoction?
ReplyDeleteAlmond mylk will break if you boil it with coffee. But after heating the black coffee, you can stir in a little bit of almond mylk while serving it.
DeleteAlthough, the best tasting combination with coffee is coconut mylk. :)
