TIGER NUT MILK

Here is it the recipe of tiger nut milk, a cold and sweet drink, essential in summer.

INGREDIENTS:

-        250 g tiger nuts (I buy them in Tortosa’s market)

-        180 g Sugar

-        1 l Water

PROCESS:

-       Clean the tiger nuts very well, rinsing them in clean water.

-     When they are completely clean, set them to soak in a lot of cold water for 24 hours.

-      After this time, rinse the tiger nuts again in clean water, changing the water until it is completely clear, and then drain off all the water.

-        Mash the tiger nuts or put them in a blender, to make them into a soft paste.

-       Add the water and the sugar, previously mashed, and stir them.

-     Now, pass the mix through a metal strainer, and then through a wet cloth filter until the liquid does not have any large particles.

-        Let it sit in a fridge for 2 hours and serve it.

You can also serve the tiger nut milk like an ice-cream. Simply put it in the freezer.
