move beyond store-bought boxes of almond milk and jars of natural
peanut butter, King's small book is the perfect guide to homemade
nutty goodness."--Portland Press Herald "DIY Nut Milks, Nut Butters
& More is an essential resource for anyone who wants to eat well,
go homemade, and make the most of an amazing ingredient. Strawberry
brazil nut milk, cinnamon pecan butter, almond joy cookies (!)--I
could go on and on. Whether you're just beginning to make more
homemade staples or you've been making nut milk for years and want
to take it to the next level, Melissa King has you covered."

products again, when you see how easy it is to create pure, natural
food with just a few ingredients. I will be giving this book to
every mother I know."

Butters, and More should be called an encyclopedia. I cannot think
of a nut that was left out. The recipes are clean, varied, and
inviting. This is a cookbook I will use again and again."

cookbook. It is a kitchen manual for anyone who wants to
