Have you tried any of the recipes from these cookbooks? I looked through the

one on desserts and breads the other day at the bookstore, and I wondered how

easy it would be to convert the recipes to vegan, and if they would still be

good without the eggs that she uses in quite a few of her recipes.

 

 

* *I recommend delicious 100% flourless breads baked by Food for Life,

Please note that in the sprouting process all the gluten is devoured by the

enzymes, so these flourless breads are gluten free**

 

 

Does anyone know if this is really true? If it is, this will be a lifesaver

for me, as I absolutely love these sprouted breads, and they are easily

obtained here where I live.

 

Thanks for the info,

 

Christine

I haven't tried any of the recipes - I just bought the book, more to read the

info and tips she gives and to get an idea of foods I can eat. I have yet to do

much experimenting in the kitchen, and I'm not one to spend a lot of time

cooking in there! I don't eat eggs either, and for years I've used egg

replacements in all baking with NO problem.

 

Please note that many sprouted grain breads DO contain gluten, read all

ingredients carefully. The Food For Life breads do not add gluten back into

their breads from what I understand, so as long as it's true about the sprouting

process devouring the gluten, which I'd have to say it is because of the source

I got it from - then enjoy! But I might double check by calling or e-mailing

the company just to be 100% sure.
