Wheat bread

Wheat Bread Recipe

Yield 1 loaf

Ingredients:

1 pkg yeast
1/2 cup luke warm water 
3 1/4 cups whole wheat flour
1 tsp salt
2 Tbsp honey

1/2 cup milk ( 2 tbsp powdered milk and 1/2 cup of water = 1/2 cup of milk)

2 Tbsp oil or butter

2 eggs (4 Tbsp egg powder + 8 Tbsp water)

In a large mixing bowl sprinkle yeast over the warm water & let stand about 10 min. Stir to dissolve. Add oil/butter, honey, salt, milk, eggs and combine. Add the flour one cup at at time. Place on a well floured mixing board and add flour until manageable for kneading. Knead 20-30 minutes or until the dough springs back when you stick your finger into it.

Place in a oiled bowl, turning the dough so all surfaces are greased. Cover and let rise in a warm area until doubled in bulk. Punch down and place in oiled bread pan. Let rise until double and bake at 375 for 35-45 min.

If you want to eat your bread when it's still warm, the best way to easily remove the bread from the pan is to use liquid lecithin to grease the pan, either by itself or mixed with a litlle oil. This will allow you to remove the bread immediately after it comes out of the oven, so you can spread the butter and enjoy!

Here is a link to an interesting and useful document on how to make bread and bread products without an oven - for times when the power goes out, you're out in the woods camping, or even just in  your own back yard.

Sprouted wheat berries

Sprouted Wheat Berries

Yields approximately 1 Cup (1/2 lb.) of Sprouts

Put 2/3 Cup of wheat berries into a bowl or sprouting jar (a glass jar with a drainable top)

Add a little more water than is enough to cover. Hard red winter wheat has the highest protein content compared to other berries but any wheat berry can be used and they each have their own distinct taste.

Allow seeds to Soak for for about 2 -12 hours at room temperature or in a warm spot. Soaking in a lot of water for a long time will leach nutrients out of the berries. Many people will drink this water or use it to cook with. Another option might be to save it to use for your next soaking batch, keeping it refrigerated in the mean time.

Empty the seeds into your sprouter if necessary.

Drain off the soak water.

Rinse thoroughly with cool water.

Drain thoroughly.

Set anywhere out of direct sunlight and at room temperature between Rinses.

Rinse and Drain your sprouts 2-3 times a day

The wheat berries should be sprouted within 2-3 days

It is suggested that you taste your sprouts every time you rinse. The soaked seeds are alive and very nutritious.

Many people like their sprouts small (1/4 inch roots), at this stage they are delicious and easy to eat. If you let them grow longer, they become very "chewy" although they still taste good. By all means, grow them for as long as you like (as long as you continue to rinse and drain a couple times daily) and find out for yourself when they are most most to your liking.

You can dry your sprouts to the touch and store them in the refrigerator.

Food Storage

Food storage is tricky business, especially if, like most Americans, you're used to going to the grocery store or restaurants and just picking up what looks good to eat in the near term. There are so many things to consider, such as how to get the proper nutrition, the right proportions of vegetables and fruits. How many servings?, What will it taste like?, how long will it last? Do I really need to do go through all this?, Where do I begin?

The first thing to consider is where and how much room you have to store food. If you're living in an apartment, you may have access to storage space or not. If you don't, you could find some creative ways to store food. For instance, if you store in buckets, you could use the buckets to make a pantry, book or other kind of storage shelf. You could use them as a base for a Japanese style bed. You could use them to make end tables with a cloth covering them. Or even a privacy partition, covered with a pleasant looking material! Chairs with little round cushions on top?

You will want to practice cooking with your storage items, for these you should start with purchases at the grocery store rather than food that is packaged for the long term. For instance, if you love bread and want to be able to eat it if everything goes to hell in a handbasket, you'll need to learn to make your own with wheat berries and yeast, preferably before an emergency arises. A very good thing about wheat berries is that they can be eaten several different ways; in bread or other baking items, cooked as is (in berry form) with water and vegetables, or sprouted, which is very healthy!

If you want to make bread with wheat berries, you'll need to get a good grinder. Preferrably one that can operate with or without electricity. There are some good ones on the market but they tend to be very pricey.

Here is a website link that explains and rates some different grinders:

Next, you need to figure out how many servings of each foods you'll need and for how many people. This should especially take calories into consideration which, in times of stress you will need more of. Calories are our main energy source. Carbohydrates, fruits and fats are the biggest sources of calories. Carbs are broken down into glucose which is then used by the body to create energy. The body can also break down proteins and fats to make glucose but it takes a bit longer. The brain uses glucose exclusively as an energy source. 

So how many servings? A good rule of thumb is to make sure you have plenty of freeze dried or dehydrated fruits and vegetables first, count up those calories. Figure out how much protein you are going to want or need to consume per day and what your sources will be - count up those calories, then make up the rest with carbs, fats and beverages such as powdered milk, powdered cheeses, butters, oils, and wheat items. This will help you decide the number of servings overall to reach 2000 calories a day.

Vaccinations

Recently I had to do a research paper on influenza. It brought back memories of 2009 when we were caught up in the hype of H1N1 and figured we should get some Tamiflu. We searched everywhere but it was unavailable. I looked for info on herbs that would help and came across some research papers on the Black Elderberry, Sambucus nigra. This gem, when taken after you get the flu, cuts your recovery time in half and starts easing symptoms within a day. How does it work? Flu viruses have little spikes on their outer coat that allows them to attach to cells and enter them to replicate. Black elderberry extract coats those spikes so they can't attach. It's also loaded with antioxidants.
Anyway, about the paper.... I came across some disturbing information on vaccines. OK, maybe I'm a little slow compared to some folks, but I had no idea that there was so much evidence out there linking thimerasol vaccines with autism. I did not even know that there was an autism epidemic! If you have children or regularly get vaccines - which would be most of us - please check out the links! Autism is a major epidemic that now affects 1 in 110 children!!!

Mercury on the Mind

Here is a video done by the University of Calgary showing in real time the effects of a small amount of mercury on brain neurons - it's not pretty folks.




There's literally tons and tons of information and research out there for anyone who looks for it, don't expect it to be blasted on AOL or CNN.

Here's an interesting documentary on the Tamiflu scam





And for anyone who believes mercury is no longer used in vaccines, this is simply not true. Thimerasol is still used in vials for multiple doses at 25mcg of mercury per dose.
Here is the package insert for the latest Flu vaccine.
