Ok Y'all, today we tackle a BIG topic - Do we need to soak or sprout our grains? What is Phytic Acid? Is Phytic Acid good or bad?
While organizations like Weston A. Price Organization and books like "Nourishing Traditions" and "The Maker's Diet" (all of which I HIGHLY recommend) talk about the importance of soaking and sprouting grains before consuming them, they don't really go into the science behind it.
Usually you just hear "phytic acid is an anti-nutrient, so you MUST neutralize it by soaking or sprouting grains before consuming it."
Today - we are going down the rabbit hole. Join me.

@jessicajohanson9162 2 года назад

From someone who does make sourdough bread, you have your starter and you add it to the rest of the flour and moisture that you are going to add into it and you let the whole bulk of your flour ferment for 12 to 24 hours depending on your taste, to the desired degree of sourness. So in a true sourdough bread, all of the flour in the sourdough loaf would all be fermented with the sourdough starter. 👍🏻

I love the texture of our bread when grains are soaked. I believe we need more research on nutrition and phytic acid. As for colon cancer, soaking or not is less important than grinding your own. Period. I decided I will keep soaking. I appreciate your counter perspective and really appreciate your work and intentions ❤️

@renmuffett 8 месяцев назад

I agree. And I love the cookbook. The oldest cookbook I read was in 1972, (I was 17) given to my mom by an 85 year old man, that belonged to his mother. It was written in the 1800s. The measuring devices, instead of a cup, was written teacup. My mom had a set of antique measuring teacups. It was awesome. I didn't see soaked grains there either.

Sue Becker was the one who got me to start milling organic Einkorn. Because it is the original ancient grain(the way Yah created it) I can eat it being gluten intolerant. I’m really happy you addressed some of these issues! I get tired of the sourdough craze and everyone saying it’s the best way to eat bread. For those of us that are histamine intolerant, fermented foods are detrimental to our health! I really appreciate you clearing these issues up for so many!❤

I am so grateful to you for this video. I have milled organic wheat and have made my own bread for 4 years.

I am so relieved after watching this video 🎉

@notthistime2492 3 года назад

There you go making sense again! I soaked and dehydrated my grains ONE time. It was too much work for me with everything else that I had to do in my day. I'm so glad you set me free from feeling guilty that I don't have time for that step.

@GrainsandGrit 3 года назад

Yes, once you do it and go through the entire process you HAVE to wonder if our ancestors (who were milling my hand and baking over a fire) took the time to do that extra step. More importantly WHY would they do that? Again, I can understand soaking beans or grains in water overnight to then cook them the next day. That's something that saves time and would be very logical to do. But I haven't seen anywhere where they soaked the grains, dried them, then grind them up. In full disclosure, I know that masa harina is a soaked grain. They soak the corn in lime, wash and rinse it, then they grind it up. Traditionally this is done while still wet though. I believe it's only modern techniques that make it easier for the masa harina to be dried after the soaking to be sold in stores (masa harina is used for corn tortillas, in case you didn't know).

Hi Felisha, I’m 62 and I’ve only been learning recently about all of this, thank you for your hard work. What a lot of work that our ancestors did to make bread. I completely agree with the undisturbed whole grain, intact for storage, makes sense because wet would not have lasted through the famine. I think they may have soaked the grains, as they were going to use them, simply because it would probably be easier to grind, but, they did use flour, so, they would have had to dry out again, or grind it intact, unsoaked. I appreciate your research on the phylic acid, as many are saying is bad. My one thought though is this, we do know that the yellow corn has to go through nixtamalization , is an important step to free the niacin, (which in the depression times, many, including my grandfathers, got sick with Pelagra, ). So, I’m curious, if that is the case with corn, perhaps it could help with wheat berries. I don’t know. Any thoughts in comparison to corn?

Thank you for the valuable information. Regarding the ready yeast, brewers yeast or commercially available yeast, some people are not able to digest it. It does cause serious health issues, where the sourdough yeast, it causes no health issues. As in reference to the old testament and trying to figure out what and how they did things, we can guess at it. There unleavened bread is similar to an english muffin or a biscuit. When the Israelites had to flee they were concerned about the their dough fermenting on the way before the feast of the passover as they were to fast on unleavened bread. Which could also mean that they did eat sourdough bread and for feasts they had to fast on unleavened bread. I appreciate it when people try to debunk certain things, but a lot of times it goes all the way to the other extreme. As they say in Italian: usa buon senso. Use common sense

I love your videos and I love that you conquered this big subject. Your research is consistent with the research I have done. I do make both sourdough bread and bread with instant yeast, but I really just make sourdough because I love the idea that I don’t have to rely on instant yeast (another thing I need to buy) to make a loaf of bread. I’ve never soaked grains…. I’m too busy for that. The only thing I’ll spend the time to soak are beans. They cook faster.. now does it make it more digestible? I’m not totally clear: I’ve made beans both soaked and not soaked: I personally have not noticed any difference.

@GrainsandGrit 2 года назад

I actually addressed the bean soaking debate in the video I did about dried beans. Very interesting stuff when I started researching that out too. Bottom line, I believe in common sense cooking and I'm pretty sure that's how people have been doing it for thousands of years. When you're having to cook over a fire and prepare everything from scratch including growing your own food, you're not going to add more work to your load for no reason 😛

@jbirdyhome-4050 Год назад

I sprout soft white wheat berries for my canaries and finches and parrots. I always heard that grains and sunflower seeds contain the most living goodies when the first little white sprout tip pokes out of the kernel/sell and it's supposed to contain the most "living" nutrient value at that point. When they get leggy the nutritional value diminishes as they continue the growing process, so I heard/believe. I'm not about to spend hours soaking and sprouting 100 pounds of wheat betties and then dehydrating them on cookie sheets in a dehydrator or my oven. It would take forever to prep enough to make a loaf of bread unless you have a huge commercial setup. Your videos are so informative and enlightening and the information you convey is of value to everyone!!!

Hi Felicia! Thank you so much for all of your hard work. I’m 60 years old and I’ve been making sourdough from freshly milled grains for about a decade.

I would love to know if you have any words of wisdom on preparing grains that could lower the carbohydrate count. P.S. I agree with everything you are stating…unfortunately there is a lot of misinformation out there, bravo!

@mamagg2444 2 года назад

From my understanding, you are right, in that the bakers of the past didn't do extra steps to soak and sprout their wheat themselves, but that the ancient technique of leaving the sheaves in the field to dry outside in the weather was how the physic acid was neutralized, even if they didn't know what physic acid was, it was still their way of harvest that fermented the grains naturally. The modern harvesting takes the grain immediately into a humid proof area and so the weather doesn't do its fermenting job, hence why modern bakers do the soaking method to try recreate that step which was initially missed. That is what I read, and makes sense as well, though I am not an expert at all as I am still miserably trying to learn to bake with grains. But I am one determined lady to figure this out, even after 30 sourdough starter attempts.

Sourdough is lower glycemic as is Pumpernickel Rye. The acidity and density lower glycemic index. Many pizza and french bread is autolysed before yeast is added. Pizza is often raised and refrigeration for 24 to 48 hours. German style bread feature whole wheat or rye berries. I think several hours of soaking or raising increases flavor.

First of all, soaking is not the same as sprouting. Now, by the very nature of soaking whole grains, sometime they sprout - something happens, you forget about them, and next time you look at them, they have little sprouts. It happens. The little seed breaks dormancy and is now alive. Some people eat that, it was a whole trend in the '80s. Some people cook the soaked (or accidentally sprouted) berries with spices and eat that, tradition to certain events. Now, there's some soaking, fermenting and slow cooking of grains involved in the making of whisky, if I'm not mistaken. But I've never heard of sprouting grains on purpose, then drying them, then milling them into flour until very recently. Now, soak the flour? Mix the flour with water and leavening agent and let it rise for one hour is *not* soaking, but if you leave it for 10 hours *is* ? I'd say, all flour is "soaked". I do soak (and massage) a ball of dough, simply because Vital Gluten is hilariously overpriced. As for harvesting grains, were they really doing the vertical prompting overnight? Whatever for? Weren't they vertical before harvesting? :) For sure, there's the morning dew, but grains don't need to be harvested in order to sprout, they would sprout right on the straw if the conditions are right. Maybe they didn't want to come home with only half a wagon of grain every day? I don't really know. But I know this: whatever damage the phytic acid may do, it's nothing compared with what glyphosate does.

Thank you for this. In our world today, we are drowning in a sea of lies, and misinformation. I am currently navigating, after reversing diabetes, last year. I reversed diabetes with a very low carbohydrate diet, and intermittent fasting. I am researching how to make my own bread, that is high in fiber, and doesn’t spike my blood sugar. I have been making sourdough bread, to mostly give to others, and I really enjoy the process, and the sharing of bread. I have a grain mill and grain on the way, now. I am particularly interested in making my own, healthy low carb wraps, and seed and nut rich sourdough bread. Does anyone have valuable knowledge that can help me? Love in Christ! ❤

@tdgherbs 3 года назад

What is your take on leavening bread in general? I've done some research and have come to the conclusion that leavening takes some of the "wholeness" from the grains. For example, fructans are reduced quite a bit in yeast leavened breads. Despite the anti-fructan sentiment nowadays, fructans are antioxidants and they are prebiotics. In my opinion when we leaven the grains we are giving first dibs of valuable nutrients to these yeasts. It makes no sense to me.

@GrainsandGrit 3 года назад

I’m not sure about the fructans. That’s something I will have to look up. But logically speaking, the moment the wheat berry is cracked and opened oxidation starts happening. In just 3 days, 90% of the nutrients have oxidized. Once you bake it, it holds the nutrients in. So I would say we would want to bake/cook grains very soon after cracking them open. In the Bible it talks about leavened and unleavened bread. It never says one is worse than the other (except during special times like Passover in which case the bread becomes ceremonial). So I would say either way is fine to consume so long as the baking is done very soon after cracking the wheat berry open!

Idk....I don’t think Italians are becoming extinct! I would think they consume a lot of wheat in a year between all the pasta and bread.

@garyhennessey3621 Год назад

You are likely correct concerning Israel soaking grain not to speak of sprouting. But milling grains any grain with a 1000 lb mill stone or a modern mill removes most of the phylates anyway. It is a fact that phytic acid chelates elements (Ca, Zn, Fe, Mn, Cu and P) forming other substances that inhibit the absorption of these elements in the cilia in the intestines. That's just a fact. So why soak? Today's diet IMO for the majority of the people have changed things and evolution of sort that causes these things to do damage to our bodies. I don't think it affects all to a severe degree but likely most to some degree. 53% of the people in the U.S. are obese and a good percentage morbidly obese. Most do not exercise as they did in the O/T with hard working jobs. Many things are drastically, different due to modern lifestyle. Once again, things have evolved due to lifestyle and satanic government. I should say devolved. Few tend sheep, cows, have gardens and eat foods that are natural and whole hence completely and radically different lifestyle. The human body changes with this adaption to modern life in a bad way and the reason for most unhealthy people with diabetes, heart disease and cancer and other diseases. Smoking/alcohol and other illicit things contribute to disease poor quality of life and shortened life. Food is a huge part imo but back to phylates-it's a small part in relation to the whole. Christian, Baptist, traditional dispensationalist.

@dollcreator Год назад

I just saw your reference to the use of a sourdough culture by ancient people because they didn't have something like commercial yeast. I have been watching videos by 'the land of chem' that is by a guy who is figuring out what the pyramids in Egypt were used for. His theory is that they were industrial sized chemical factories, and he is close to proving that theory. One of the pyramids was used for creating ammonia and that was transported by underground tunnels to another pyramid that changed the ammonia to ammonia-bi-carbonate, something that was used for fertilizer, but also acts as a leaven for baking. So the Egyptians didn't use sourdough starter, they had a chemical that acted the same way, which is likely also what the Jews used when they were in Egypt.

@GrainsandGrit Год назад

Wow. Just using a sourdough starter seems so much easier than building the 7th wonder of the world.

@dollcreator Год назад

@@GrainsandGrit Ah, but those pyramids were built for commercial chemical creations, and most of the ammonia bicarbonate was used for fertilizer. Besides, who knows how those were build, since the new thinking is that they were likely built shortly after the last ice age, about 11000 years ago, and those people who survived the meteor impact that melted the ice on North America and Northern Europe had a lot of industrial knowledge, some of which we still haven't figured out. They may have had methods to cut and transport those huge stones that didn't take the effort it does these days. Also, chemical factories are pretty big these days too,

@Retrofire-47 Год назад

Thought provoking commentary, genuinely - a valuable contribution to the discourse; I want to say, there is something awry with this entire "dark knowledge" kinda occultism. Like, many individuals that follow these increasingly restrictive diets appear to just keep getting more unhealthy... just an observation. I think also how food [nourishment] itself is demonized is concerning. When you look at a potato, should you think "Nightshade", "High-carb", "Lectins", "Depleted Soil", or, should you just think "Food"? What are the implications of these kind of thoughts on our well-being and long-term health? I also read recently how a lot of peeps on the Paleo Diet [sorta following this myself] just end up with massive caloric deficits because of dietary exclusion.. No one is concerned about this, y'know, the most important nutrient around, calories? And it just feels like a never-ending cycle, almost like the aim IS TO exclude nourishment itself from your life. I also think the kind of ministry of truth style ode to authority in many of these circles - the unquestioning appeal to nebulous studies, and the absence of critical thinking - strikes a dark cord for me. In regards to mental health - how would our ancestors have survived if they practiced this kind of myopic obsession with toxins? When you look back fondly upon your childhood, does this kind of obsession sound joyous? Why, being vigilant about toxins is purposeful, but when you start to associate common foods like Nuts and Seeds with being evil then are we *really* on the path to virtue or desolation?

@GrainsandGrit Год назад

Such a well-worded observation. And yes, you've hit the nail on the head. This obsession with restrictive diets is unnatural and unhealthy. While we should be careful (my family avoids GMOs as much as possible), we shouldn't throw out entire food groups like humans have been eating poison for thousands of years and only in the past decade have we finally uncovered the secret wisdom. It's just silly!
