Varieties

Soy milk is available in plain and flavored varieties, and in low-fat, fat-free, and fortified versions.

Buying and storing tips

Look for soy milk in cartons, either on the shelves or in the refrigerated section of natural food stores or grocery stores. Soy milk will keep for seven to ten days; refrigerate after opening. For an extended shelf life and optimal taste, refrigerate overnight before opening.

Preparation, uses, and tips

Use plain soy milk as a base for cream soups or sauces, or as a substitute for milk in most baked goods.
