Digest Number 3392

Sorry it took so long to get back to you who asked. It has been a hectic week here.

 

I live on the Puget Sound right now, soon we are moving out to the Hood Canal.

 

I have a question. What is sprouted bread? I make our own bread here mostly, definitely more cost effective for us, when you consider I love seeds and such in there. Is sprouted something I can make?

 

Also, is distilled water much better than good well water?

Job 12:7-10:But ask the animals, and they will teach you, or the birds of the air, and they will tell you; or speak to the earth, and it will teach you, or let the fish of the sea inform you, Which of all these does not know that the hand of the Lord has done this? In his hand is the life of every creature and the breath of all mankind.

Hi Kim,

 

"Sprouted" refers to sprouting the grains before milling them for bread. There are some on this group that do this themselves, others of us buy the sprouted flour or the sprouted bread (Ezekiel brand is the one I know). The purpose of sprouting is to remove the enzyme inhibitors from the grains before turning them into food.

 

The info that I've seen on this group regarding water quality is that 1) distilled is the best, and 2) reverse osmosis is second best. I would expect that well water would have a lot of (inorganic) minerals in it, but I don't really know as I've never had a well. Maybe someone else can help here.

P.S. Can you please leave off the Bible quote from your posts? This is per the group policies and out of respect for the diversity of people on the list. I'm asking because I'm a group moderator. Thanks much!!
