soy milk vs soy milk powder

Thanks for the article! I was just wandering if I could use soy milk instead of water and soy milk power. The reason is that I live in Latvia, don't think I'll find soy milk powder here..

Owner's reply

Hi roman! Unfortunately, soy milk powder is essential in this recipe in order to build substance. Omitting the soy milk powder would result in an excessively watery and thin white chocolate ganache. You may be able to figure out a way to reduce some soy milk into an extremely thick syrup and use it but I haven't tried that. Let me know how it works if you give it a shot!

The Problem with Palm Oil

"I agree with your assumption that if Earth Balance was using Conflict-free Palm Oil, they would make sure to advertise that fact on the label. Since I became aware of the horrifying consequences of palm oil production, I have been very careful not to buy foods with that ingredient. Of course, there are many non-food products that contain some derivative of palm oil and I'm not sure how I can eliminate consumption of those products, e.g. shampoo, lotion, etc. I observe the dietary laws of Kashruth and have wanted to bake with a product that is kosher and palm oil free. So far, this has been impossible. Now that you have made us aware that the Spectrum Culinary Organic (no s) All-Vegetable Shortening is part of the Rain Forest Alliance, I look forward to baking some..."
