LOVE, LOVE, LOVE steel cut oats! Add barley to my home-made veggie soup… Panera does a descent job with steel cut oats topped with pecans and strawberries, just leave the cinnimon sugar topping off.

Plan to try your overnight crock-pot recipe for steel cut oats!
Thanks-

Spelt does not only taste better than other grains, it is like rice free of gluten and therefore way easier and way better to digest – an very important advantage over wheat, rye, etc. especially if you are getting older.

@Debbie You should be able to sprout plants from any whole, unbroken (not processed or cracked) grain that we sell. I would recommend doing some research into the raw foods movement of sprouting to start the plants growing. It should only take a day or two and then they can be planted in dirt. Good luck!

Will wheatberries or other grains sold at your store grow into plants?
I want to find a wheat plant to show my class how wheat actually grows. Where can I find one?

try wheatberries
make a wheatberry salad by preparing wheatberries til al dente- then add canola oil, rice wine vinegar, diced celery, diced carrot, diced pepper, fresh chopped cilantro, celery and onion salts, black pepper and, to kick it up, add fresh cranberries reduced down til soft with a pinch of sugar to lend tartness and sweetness – yum

Bulk grains and legumes are TERRIFIC but do not come with instructions. To make life easier I looked up cooking time charts on the Internet and copied them to a blank document. I adjusted them to one page each, then printed and taped them inside my kitchen cabinet doors so I don’t have to keep looking things up. Works great!

A question about the bulk quinoa at WFM. I bought some last week, because it was a better value than buying pre-packaged quantities. Unfortunately, I didn’t note whether the quinoa was pre-rinsed to remove the saponins or not. The saponins make the quinoa really bitter. I know most commercially-produced and packaged quinoa in the U.S. has been pre-rinsed; I just didn’t know about the bulk quinoa at WFM.

If this sounds way technical, I’ll ask the others out there who have bought bulk quinoa–did you just cook it, or did you have to do lots of soaking and rinsing?
