Guest guest Posted January 19, 2004 Report Share Posted January 19, 2004 OK, I have another sprout question to ponder... Medicinal seeds, like Hawthorn Berries, are large, and hard, and crunchy. When you put them in a coffee grinder, they are tiny bits, but still hard and crunchy. (But taste a bit like cherries) If you soaked the whole seed overnight, I believe the resulting grind would produce sludge. Is it feasible to soak it AFTER grinding? And now for something completely different... I make "medicinal" smoothies for breakfast: a banana for potassium 1/2 cup of unflavored yogurt a cup of apple cider or juice milk thistle seeds, hawthorne berries, psyllium, flax seeds and a schisandra berry, ground in a coffee grinder srawberries, blueberries, whatever fruit is handy water to make a nice consistency Blenderize. If i were to soak the ground seeds in the apple cider or juice overnight, could I use the juice, or would the enzyme inhibitors be floating around in it? ie, are the enzyme inhibitors destroyed by soaking? or just dissipated? Inquiring minds want to know. windflower Hotjobs: Enter the "Signing Bonus" Sweepstakes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
