Скачать или смотреть Making Valencia Style Horchata out of Tigernut

In the United States, the Mexican-style horchata that is pretty sweet and cinnamony is pretty common, however, it’s not the original version of this. Just like chorizo, the Mexican version is an adaptation of a Spanish recipe that is slightly different from the original. This version of horchata is made not from rice, but a nut is known as Tiger nut, and tends to be a lot less sweet than the Mexican rice-based version. Just like Mexican horchata, it’s pretty simple to make, and it makes a nice refreshing cold cinnamon drink, however outside of that, the tastes are quite different. Because it’s nut-based instead of rice-based, it’s almost like the difference between rice milk and almond milk. This stuff is extremely delicious, and refreshing. It is amazing that it has such a complex flavor for being such sugar and tiger nut.


Ingredients:

1 cup of tigers nut (450 grams)
4 cups of water (75 grams)
¼ granulated sugar (75 grams )
¼ teaspoon of salt
