Sprouted Flour and Expensive Groceries
We’ve talked about sprouted flour before, how the sprouting
process lowers the glycemic index of the whole grain and helps to level your blood
sugar. Now you can buy your sprouted flour on-line at Thrive Market
(subscription), Vita-Cost, Azure Standard or Amazon. But did you know that you can make your own
sprouted flour?
Recently I can across a post by Amber Smith on the main Trim Healthy Mama page describing
the process and just how those savings can add up. She compares the cost of purchasing sprouted
flour vs. creating your own. Wheat
berries (kernels) are cheaper than the sprouted flour so if you are able to do
your own, you can save money on your grocery budget. Some specialized household tools are needed, but
most you’ll already have: bowls, strainers, an oven or food dehydrator and
something to mill the wheat, a grain mill or strong blender will do the trick.

Also, here is another article on the web that describes how
to do it in detail.

This is what the grain should look like after they are sprouted, just showing the tiniest of little tails.
