In reply to Jenny. This happens when it ferments. It takes on a slightly yogurt like sourness. I personally love it in that state. Although, I do try to consume it rather quickly after that. If you're into fermented foods this is quite the treat. Just stir it well and enjoy!!!

In reply to Angela Sum. I haven't had this experience. It's possibly the fiber solidifying. It's rich in the same type of starch as arrowroot, which also takes on a viscous, slimy texture. As long as it smells and tastes okay, I think it's alright.

I love tigernut milk, but, wonder why it gets slimy and mucilaginous after 1 or 2 days? At one point, I thought the soaking water was too warm, but, I get the same result from cold water processing. I use a vitamix for blending. The first day is perfect, although there is a significant amount of starch that settles. Two days after, the milk separates and even after shaking, there is a thick slimy character.

In reply to Martha. Yes, I discard it. You could keep it or compost it or try to dry it into a flour and let us know how it goes.

In reply to Martha. Thank you, Auto-correct...but I meant tigernut, not butternut.

Do you discard the butternut puree after? I can compost, but was hoping you've used it as a flour for baking, perhaps?!

I have really good childhood memories of kunnu aya and as a child we use to chew on the nut to get the milky juice and spit out the fibre.
