Re: Self Sufficient - Ingredients
I just started grinding my own berries with a stone grinder. In fact just yesterday I was looking into growing my own wheat. Just a small patch to see how it goes.
The Kaiser roll recipe on FB calls for Diastatic malted barley powder. I was not able to find any local. Did some research and found that sprouting barley or wheat berries, activated the enzymes needed to convert the starch to sugar for the yeast to feed on.
You then dry the sprouted grains and then grind them.
I find it interesting and fun working to become self sufficient. We grow most of our veges, raise chickens for eggs and meat. Hope to have a cow for dairy and fertilizer, but have to wait till I can be home full time.
Fun thread,
Tom
