You may need to soak longer. To test, (and the right consistency is important), squeeze a bean between your fingers and when the two halves are separared the central part should show a little dent.

Fill a blender with the beans and add water. Blend a short while until the beans are broken down into sand size particles.

Filter through cheesecloth.

Boil the milky solution 5 minutes and it is ready to serve.

It has a strong taste and a little sugar (or sugar substitute) may help.

Oil is also added in commercial blends - but not necessary.

With the leftover bean residue - add to your next soup.

The amount of beans is up to you - start with a couple of cups. Add a couple of cups of water - you can always add more later.
