    One thing I've noticed about Emmy is that no one's really ever tried to "replicate" her success. I genuinely think that's because she doesn't exactly have a certain "style" of video, but rather what we mostly watch her videos for are her willingness and love of trying new things. I love that about her!

    Fun fact, the first part of this process is essentially how beer gets made. Barley instead of wheat is germinated (not left to grow to the long grass stage but only the first short rootlet stage) and then kilned or heated to stop the growth of the plant. This process, called malting, activates enzymes called amalases that convert starch (in this case provided by rice but in beer is also provided by the malt or wheat or other ingredients) into smaller sugars like maltose that brewer's yeast can convert into alcohol. -Sincerely, a food scientist who works at a malt company. 😊

      Theoretically this should work with almost any source of starch, because the enzymes in malted grain don't discriminate, so instead of rice, you could use wheat flour, or corn, or... mashed potatoes, if you're inclined to!

    I usually have malt syrup in the cupboard, but I've never made my own. It was interesting to see how it's made. The one I use is made from barley. I've seen one made from rye, too.
    Did you give the grain you strained out to the chickens? My mom used to make mash for her chickens using a similar process, though she never made syrup.

    Hi Emmy! I can't help not to comment on this video. I'm from Europe and we have quite a long tradition of making maltose this way you did on the video! We would normally stop the wheat (or more often barley) a bit earlier than you did to preserve starch inside the grain, though. This sprouted grain we call MALT - hence the MALTOSE - sugar derived from malt. But what you do next is NOT at all called "fermentation" !!!! It is called "mashing" - activating an enzyme that emerges during sprouting in grain. This enzyme in exactly 63°C (145°f) is able to convert starch (long chain of carbohydrates) into maltose (double bond glucose). You did that with your rice! The sweet water you have filtered out we call WORT. You can boil it down into a syrop - like you did. Or better!!! - Let it ferment (now it is called fermentation). Depending on the kind of yeast you use for fermentation (top - high temperature yeast, or bottom - low temperature) you'd get one of two most exciting european drinks. One is called Ale, and the other called Beer. I really recommend doing one of those drinks in next video!! :)

    Emmy, Emmy, Em-myyy!!! Thank-you doesn't come close to expressing my appreciation for your research and courage to discover amazing food sources!!
    I was enthralled watching you take the first taste of the watery, fermented slush! Absolute Bravery!!
    The result, after you boiled it into syrup, was spectacular!
    I grow wheat grass, then drink a wheat shot a day, but never knew it could be modified so completely into a wholesome, sweet syrup.
    Millions of humans across the world are "Prepping" for a future, cataclysmic event, wherein there will be food shortage.
    Yet, right here you have shown how to use a small amount of seeds and rice to replace a multitude of other sweetness....
    One could learn to use the Wheat Syrup in coffee, definitely in tea, and in all other sweetened foods, yet, the ingredients don't take up crucial storage space.
    No doubt whatever is left after draining the fermented slush can be tossed to the farm animals to eat so nothing is wasted at all and the process is also not labor intensive.
    You explain the details and history beautifully.
    I'm going to share, share, share your video with everyone on my contacts list because I feel this is a knowledge that is essential to survival and staying healthy.
    Growing and eating sprouted wheat is a necessary, nutritional building block and creating the syrup is an amazing bonus which is full of Umami.

      You could use it, but there really isnt much protein in that leftover mix. 100 grams white cooked rice only has about 2.5 grams protein, and 100grams wheat berries are only about 13 grams. So the whole mix is less protein than 100 grams of peanut butter.

      @@jarred267 HI Jarred, Yes thanks, I know there's minimal to no protein in the wheat & rice - that has enzymes and fiber. I would add a nut butter, nuts, seeds and/or maybe some protein powder for the protein - then chia seeds, dates... and whatever else would make it into a yummy snack, and formable into balls

      @TheOnlyKrazykat 2 роки тому

      Actually, I don't think malt has gluten, which I think is what celiac disease is aggravated by, so I don't think it should be a problem. But also, I'm not an expert so make sure I'm correct before trying it lol

    Hi there
    I have two questions
    1. Can you skip the sprouting and add malted bali or wheat to the cooked rice?(available at home brews)
    2. Why are the sprouts grown to grass stage.
    Cheers

    It looks like Maltomeal! I'm not positive but I think I watched a whole process from Russians? They were making a dessert that only used this. No rice even. They didn't really speak. It was huge mats of the wheat grass. HUGE. I watched the whole thing without knowing much about it. But it was mesmerizing for some reason. Thanks Emmy!🙏🌾

  • @JohnFoley1701

    The wheat grass has an enzyme called amylase which converts the starches in the cooked rice into sugar.

    That wheat grass is sold to cat owners to stop them from chewing on houseplants. Mike Jeavons did a video on it and he talked trash about it, right up until he gave it to the cat and the cat LOVED it.

    My aunt introduced me to maple syrup as a toddler. At the time, my family only used local cane syrup that had an ashy sour after taste so maple was my favorite. Now days? It's hard to find pure cane syrup, and I love it on biscuits with dinner bacon and grits.

    • @geneard639
      @geneard639 3 роки тому

      Also? Yeah, I learned a long time ago that the syrup is formed by the enzymes released from the chopped up wheat grass converts the starch in the rice to basic sugars and strips them out into a liquid. It's like magic.

    I'd like to see Emmy make molasses from sugar beets. Even better would be to go from there to sugar.
    Brown sugar that isn't from sugar cane is beet sugar with a little beet molasses mixed in. The refining process produces pure white sugar.
    Raw cane sugar is naturally brown and has to be further refined to be white sugar, which is exactly the same sucrose as beet sugar.
