You'll be blending soaked walnuts into a creamy, lactose-free drink with the help of a nut milk bag — the most important step is soaking the walnuts overnight so they soften properly. The whole process takes about half an hour of active time (plus the overnight soak), and you'll end up with fresh walnut milk and a tasty pulp you can reuse in other recipes.

Soak the walnuts
It's important to soak the walnuts about 8 hours before you plan to make the milk, so they soften up (I usually soak them in the evening and blend in the morning).

Drain off the soaking water
Pour away the water the walnuts were soaked in. This water contains the so-called inhibitors released from the nuts — compounds that keep the seed dormant until the right conditions for sprouting appear. These substances aren't great for your body, so it's best to discard them.
