    April 7, 2018 by Elaine 4 Comments | Jump to Recipe

    Corn milk is a super yummy and healthy drink popular in China, orientated from Chinese hot pot restaurants.

    The two most popular freshly made drink in Chinese hot pot restaurants are watermelon juice and this corn milk. Drinking corn milk is a completely different experience from eating the corn directly. Since most of the corn flavors come from the inner tissues. So there are lots of chef grate or blend the corn in order to separate the fluids from the seed coats. So even it looks quite plain, but at least try once. If you love the flavor and taste of corn, this will be the next level experience, which is completely different from eating the corn directly form the cob.

    I use a soy milk maker this time,  the corn milk is made with just one button. By straining the mixture, we get the pure corn inner tissue flavor completely.

    By the way, in Chinese tradition Medicine, corn is believed to be helpful reducing the body heat. After eating so much meat and spices, a cup of corn milk can clam our stomach quickly. Another famous soup with similar function is mung bean soup.

        Simply replace milk with the same amount of water.

      Do you cook the corn first? Or just mix it up raw?
