Cashew Milk

Replaces dairy in a nutritious and delicious way.

Cashew milk has a delicious flavor and adapts excellently to different types of needs in the kitchen, so it is also useful in baking and pastry making. I have been using them for a long time since I could not find any other milk that could be more functional and adaptable.

In addition to their wonderful taste is their incredible nutritional value, full of antioxidants and cholesterol free, they produce a variety of completely healthy and very necessary minerals among which are melanin, collagen and elastin.

      Hola Nina, con mucho gusto.
      Te comento que la goma de tara funciona como emulsificante, eso quiere decir que mantiene los ingredientes integrados. Sin la goma de tara la grasa natural del cashew se separaría del agua, lo que solemos decir en Perú como “se corta”. Para que mantenga esa textura suave se necesita la goma de tara. Espero que la prepares y nos compartas tu experiencia por este medio.
