Pure Joy Planet Living Food Bag Nut Milk

SIRVE SUPER

I bought this bag as a replacement cheese cloth. The first thing I did with it was make paneer out of cottage cheese. Works perfectly. Then I started making hashbrowns with the bag. Grate a potato then strain it with the bag to remove excess water. I notice that once I did this, the holes became much bigger. Probably too big to strain nut-milk, but that was okay with me. After about four months of this, I ripped a small hole in the bag. It was still usable. Next, I started using it to brew loose leaf teas. Loose tea leaves are better quality and price then tea-bags, but they are a pain to brew. Either throw them into hot water and fish them out afterward or use a metal strainer, but the strainer doesn't let the tea leaves "breath". The nut-bag fixes both problems. Just put some loose tea leaves in the bag and brew normally. Then dump the leaves out later. It was at this point the bag started to discolor brown from the tea leaves (but only because I let the leaves dry in the bag), but was still usable. And because it is so easy to clean, I wasn't worry about it the brown color being bacteria or dirt. Just run the bag under some hot water while gently scrubbing with a soapy sponge. Then rinse clean.I started cooking dumplings. Traditionally, I would put cabbage between the dumplings and the metal steamer basket to keep the dumplings from sticking, but I found that the nut-bag works just as well. I wasn't sure if it could handle the high heat of a steamer, but I ended up cooking more then twenty batches of dumplings without a problem. I only threw it out because I melted part of the bag on a hot pan. I'm going to buy a new one or two.My conclusion: Cheap price, multiple uses (though it becomes useless for nut-milk making if used for anything else, but just buy two), easy to clean, and very durable.Every kitchen needs one of these bags. They are one of them most useful items I have ever bought.

Right now I'm using this every morning & then some. I put my favorite combination of vegetables in my extra-powerful blender & then pour it through this bag; then I have beautiful juice which digests instantly & with ease. I make a lighter vegetable broth this way too which is fantastic & flavorful; this makes for a great base for hearty soups such as the French Squash Soup recipe that I invented (Rosemary is a wonderful flavor). It is beautiful for making juice which is it's strength. To wash, just soak it in salty, hot, dish water for a short time (say, while your drinking your juice) & then agitate it a little & then rinse it out & hang to dry from an S-hook in your kitchen. Don't wash it with dish soap; you don't want that flavor to contaminate your juice; yuck. I will likely order another one of these one day. It is sturdy too.

Sainsbury having stopped selling the muslin cloth I normally use to make my soy milk and tofu; I thought to try this as it was at a price where I could live with any possible let down. No let down just superb product and definitely superior to muslin when it comes to fine straining of soy pulp. My excellent Soybella milk maker kettle is now redundant as this with the superb Duronic blender Amazon sell (and boy is a good blender hard to find)now make 2 litres of milk in a mere 20 minutes and it tastes as good as my local Vietnamese restaurant's soy milk. Buy and be 'amazed' at this 'amazing' nut milk bag, I'm off to buy some Almonds.

Works great as a nut bag. Can also be used to put bananas (fruit) in to keep fruit flies off
