Method
Preparation
- Place the spelt berries in a bowl and cover them generously with water. Refrigerate for at least 12 hours.
- Once the spelt has soaked, drain and rinse them well under cold water.
- Add the soaked spelt berries to your blender along with 1 litre of water and a pinch of sea salt. Blend on high speed until creamy, about 1-2 minutes.
- Strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve or nut milk bag into a clean bowl or pitcher.
- Transfer your spelt milk into a sealed bottle or jar and store it in the refrigerator for up to one week. Shake well before use.
Chef's Tips
- Soaking spelt berries longer (up to 24 hours) yields creamier milk.
- Use cold or room temperature water when blending for best results.
- Add vanilla extract, dates, or cocoa powder for sweetness.
- For optimal freshness, store in glass containers.
- Make ahead by preparing a large batch over the weekend.
Notes
Enjoy spelt milk in coffee, oatmeal, smoothies, or as a dairy alternative in recipes. It pairs well with sweet and savory dishes.
