I’ve been making my own plant milk at home for over 15 years and have perfected my method over the years. There is one ingredient that is a game changer for making thick and creamy plant milk at home: NOW<\/strong> sunflower lecithin powder<\/strong>. This one ingredient, when added, helps make homemade plant milk just like the ones found at the grocery store \u2013 but better (in my opinion).<\/p>\n Sunflower lecithin has been available in the marketplace for decades. Some people believe it is helpful in losing weight. It’s also been praised for promoting brain health. However my main reason for adding it into my diet is because it helps make plant milk thick, creamy through emulsification and helps prevent separation.<\/p>\n This ingredient is fairly inexpensive and I purchase it in powdered form. NOW foods also offers sunflower liquid lecithin which I have not used yet. I purchase this product on Amazon.com in a one pound container which lasts quiet a long time in my kitchen. I choose this brand because it inexpensive, soy-free and Non-GMO.<\/p>\n The brand says their product “aids in emulsifying fats, enabling them to be dispersed in water<\/em>” which is why I choose to add this to my homemade plant milks. It helps keep the milk from separating which is an undesirable thing. I’ve found that by adding it to my homemade plant milks they very rarely separate.<\/p>\n Purchase sunflower lecithin on Amazon.com<\/a><\/p>\nWhat is sunflower lecithin?<\/h2>\n
