A few weeks ago I was able to attend two Weekend Intensive courses at Matthew Kenney Culinary in Santa Monica, which you can read about here.
During my Essentials course, we learned about making nut milk and flavor balancing. During our exercise, we made the best-tasting almond milk I swear I have ever had. Unfortunately, there was not a recipe for it shared. My instructor went by his own personal preference and experience making this nut milk. I wrote down all of what we included in it, and I went home to try and recreate it.
