[+] dgendreau@lemmy.world -8 points 3 years ago (5 children) How does one milk a plant? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 5 child comments replies: [–] Resonosity@lemmy.world 6 points 3 years ago (4 children) You can make your own plant milk usually by soaking/boiling nuts/seeds in water and then blending that together. Some people use juicers for this, and then some people run the blended liquid through a filter to remove any bits. Cashew milk is lovely if homemade! permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [+] dgendreau@lemmy.world -6 points 3 years ago (3 children) But why call in Milk then? Shouldnt it be called Nut juice or Seed juice? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 3 child comments replies: [–] agoseris@lemm.ee 14 points 3 years ago You'll have to ask the people who started calling them milks hundreds of years ago. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Nachorella@lemmy.sdf.org 6 points 3 years ago They have a lot more in common with dairy milk than they do juice. And they're also commonly used as dairy milk alternatives. Plant milk is a much better descriptor even if juice might be more "accurate". permalink fedilink source parent [–] queermunist@lemmy.ml 5 points 3 years ago I do it to piss off dairy farmers specifically. They hate it that I get to call it plant milk and that's really funny to me. permalink fedilink source parent
