Do not over-toast to avoid bitterness. ℹ️ Blend with half the water (400 ml) first to break down the seeds thoroughly, then add the rest for a finer, creamier texture. ℹ️ Keep the milk refrigerated in an airtight bottle for up to 4 days. Shake well before serving. ℹ️ Serve the savoury spread over crispy toasted bread and finish with fresh chives, spring onions, or chilli flakes. 🐱 Keep an eye out for Lancy monitoring the whole process! 📺 WATCH NEXT: High-Protein Recipes    • High Protein Recipes   Quick & Easy 15-Minute Recipes    • Quick & Easy 15-Minute Recipes   #recipe #plantbased #plantmilk #wecookvegan #wecookbetter
