To the Editor of the "Nonru-Cinwa Dany News"

Sim—May I through the courtesy of your columns thank the kind correspondent who has. answered letter on the subject of Saya Bean Milk. In case anyone else is interested, it seems the product is easily prepared at home.

Method Is as follows: "Soak Soya beans in cold water to cover over-might, Next day grind beans and water in a small Chinese stone hand-mill." di. presume a pestle and mortar would answer the. purpose.) "Pass all through a sieve. The "Milk If too thick, should be diluted, and the whole brought {0 the boil, ind it is ready to use. This "Milk" can be used as It is, or made into delicious vegetable cream soups using it as ordinary milk. It is very nourishing for adults or infants, and very pleasant, and is much cheaper than milk purchased from dairy. In many Chinese cities it is sold' wit Hee boiled in it and is known as "teo fee tien kiang." Bean curd is made from it, and a bean-curd maker would be abie to supply the "Milk" if ordered."
