Thanks for watching! Love, Mary
Mary, can you update the coupon for the Mockmill? I tried putting in MARYSNEST in the place for coupons and it didn’t work. I’m assuming the coupon is out of date since I’m watching this in 2022. I will order one anyways, but wanted to use the coupon if possible. It’s in such high demand that they are in back order until June! Wow!
TY for sharing all of this! Question? Great info! Would LOVE to make my own flour but I want it to taste good like regular flour. I've been unable to find gluton flour that taste good. What grains would you recommend for grains that taste good and gluton free? TY in advance. Priority for me is taste. I will grind my own as you recommend and store it. :)
Mary’s Nest is like the Mr. Rogers for middle-aged women. Love it!!!
You are SO sweet!! Glad you’re here!! Love, Mary❤️🤗❤️
It's also for old-aged men.
And older women
And YOUNG Women!🥰❣🖖
Really it's for any age or gender interested in health, LOL!😍🌈🥕‼️
I truly appreciate the wealth of information that you share. Your videos are so easy to comprehend for someone who is new at this. Thank you.
Oh Chani! I am SO happy to hear that you find my videos helpful!! Glad you’re here!! Love, Mary
Where do you find the energy? You obviously invest so much time in your cookng arts and videos - thank you for sharing 😍
Oh Sharon! Thank you so much for the kind words!! Maybe it's the traditional "nutrient dense" foods that I eat! ;-) Love, Mary
Can you imagine if more people were as enthusiastic as this? All the fast food and junk food giants would close! LOL!
What’s really wonderful about grinding your grain just before you use it is that it has ALL of the nutrients still in it. The nutrients degrade RAPIDLY after grinding, losing over 90% within two days.
We are on the 4th generation of storing flour with bay leaves. We have never gotten any bugs in our flour. I also freeze my flour (ground from the store) for 72 hours. It has always worked wonderfully. Happy cooking and baking, Debbie
What a marvelous wealth of information! Mary is like a library for women wanting to learn this lifestyle! So thankful she has decided to share her knowledge for free in this format! I would of NEVER learned these things if not for this channel.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 stars!
She had me at 10 seconds with that smile.
Thank you for the kind words!! Love, Mary🤗🤗🤗
I've found my hero.... I love your videos!
Thank you SO much for the kind words!! Glad you're here!! Love, Mary
Mary, You light up my night every time i watch your show. I love your energy and enthusiasm. You are wonderful.
Wow, thank you!
There is one more way to grind your flour - you can get a grain mill attachment for your kitchenaid mixer.
Thanks so much for sharing that!! Yes, that is a great option!! Love, Mary
You have the “Best” ever Preppers pantry tips MARY❤️ Much love to you from Oklahoma...
Oh Charlene! Thank you SO much for the kind words!! I am so happy to hear this. Have you had a chance to watch my Prepper Pantry series? If not, you can catch it here: ua-cam.com/play/PLkRuW3pBo2U0WCxRNWm60Yt0ihEQbfpUl.html So glad you’re here!! Love, Mary
@@MarysNest You are so very welcome! It is not often that you are fortunate enough to meet someone who shares your passion but, knows more than you do about certain food preserving & cooking methods. I treasure your tips!!
Thank you Mary!
I've been using my Wonder Mill for at least 5 years and love it.🙂 Back then most people didn't know you could grind your grains at home.☺️ This bread baking craze may just be the silver lining to the strange times we're in.
💜🤗
Hi Trish, How true! I think we always need to look for the silver lining in difficult situations. This year has helped to make folks more aware of how important it is to be prepared. Love, Mary
Thank you so much for sharing your information. It's so helpful and detailed that others skip over. I pray for you and your loved ones to stay well. And that your wisdom and knowledge lives on forever.
Hi Mary! I'm so glad you thought to use the VitaMix! I bought the same model you have back in 1990 at a garage sale for $20 and consider it a treasure but didn't think to use it for grinding grains. I've been agonizing over which grain mill to purchase, but now I'll happily start with my VitaMix. I appreciate you so much, I consider your channel a treasure as well.
Your kitchen suits you. It's bright and sunny and pretty. Love your videos!
Thank you SO much for the kind words!! Love, Mary
For rodent proof storage I recommend Metal Garbage Cans with metal lid. Works very well.
Yes! And thy come in quite a few sizes!
Love listening to Mary’s gentle sweet voice while I’m nervously attempting to can recipes for the first time! (I am a newbie to this world! ) Her methodical step by step calms me and I actually get the job accomplished! Thank you!
Hi Mary! Thank you so much for this detailed video...SO helpful!! I want to mention, I saw a video of a person demonstrating the efficacy of the seal of a gamma lid on a food grade, 5 gallon bucket purchased from Menards (a large, midwest home improvement store chain). He put a gallon of water in the bucket, tightened the gamma lid on it, then turned the bucket upside down. The water leaked out quickly. My husband checked the same brand buckets & lids that we also purchased from Menards...they leaked, as well! Not too airtight!! I would caution everyone to check the buckets and lids they purchase, before using for long term food storage. Hope this helps!
Hi Mary! I’m only halfway through your video, but I figure if I don’t make the comment now, I’ll forget to do it. So about your friend with a more modern Vitamix. These units have a setting on them for making ice cream and smoothies. It’s a cold setting, so while your friend can always continue to freeze the grain that she is about to grind, that cold setting should prevent any heat buildup whatsoever in the dry chamber.
You’re right about the grind. I have not ever taken a sieve and tested the grind of the flower, but it’s powdery and silky, very fine if you ride it for a A minute to three minutes, depending on the ground you want. Interestingly, the inexpensive black and decker unit that I have from Canadian tire from several years ago, also does a really nice job. What I like about that one is that it has a glass receptacle for the food. You can’t scratch those up. That’s the only thing I don’t like about the Vitamix is that if I put a harder grain or even dried beans in the dry receptacle, it’s gonna end up with all sorts of scratches in it.
I hope this helps.
you can mill the flour a second time to produce a finer flour. As for the sieves, a usb powered vibration block held against the side of the sieve will make sifting much easier. With regards to historical flour separation, it was called, "bolting the flour" and it involved using various weaves of linen attached to a wooden frame and passing the flour through the linen. This still works, as long as you keep the linen in a low humidity environment and shake them free of residual flour on a regular basis.
Hello, I am writing from UK and I am Greek national lady and I am amazed from you Mary, tradition is essential to be kept on, thank you for your contribution to the society!! Love you,
Thank you SO much for all of the knowledge you put online in such an accessible format. I have learned so much from you!
Oh Mari!! I am so happy to hear this!! Glad you’re here!! Love, Mary❤️🤗❤️
Mary, your videos are amazingly informative.. I am tempted to get a pen and a notebook and sit here taking notes while I watch you speak.
Thank you so much. All of this information is worth gold, specially in the current historical moment.
I wish you a great Passover/Esater/Ramadam.
MS. Mary I just came across this video. I'm so glad i did too. My husband bought me a flour mill. So now I'm needed to learn about milling whole grain and mixing them as well as how to make flour for bread, pancakes or waffles, cakes etc. Sounds like all I have to do is sift and remove the germ. Thank you.
Hi Brenda, So happy to hear that you’ll be grinding your own grain. Yes, all you have to do is sift out the bran and the germ to make all-purpose or bread flour (depends on what grain your grinding). Then you can save what you sift out to use to make bran muffins or add to oatmeal, etc. for more fiber. But don’t forget to soak as it is the bran that contains a lot of the phytic acid. Love, Mary
@@MarysNest wondering if you’d soak the whole grain or just the bran and germ that was sifted? Also, would you have any videos on how to use fresh ground flour as I heard this fresh flour bakes differently than store bought( meaning regular recipes not always come out well using the fresh ground flours) thought please?! Thanks so much!!!
Hi Mary my sweet friend in cyberspace! Thank you so much for another great video! Amazing work that you do! I'm thinking of starting to grind my own grains as I love to make homemade breads and bake and love whole grains! You are so inspiring as a person and as an instructor! Your videos light up my dark days in isolation and I feel as though there is so much more wholesome in the world when I watch them! Love and God Bless you sweet Mary! Be well!
The Aluminum trash barrels with a lid are great mouse proof options. That's how I would store my chicken feed but is good for human food too.
I know this video is two years old, but I thought I would say that you can sometimes buy these pieces of equipment reconditioned from the manufacturer for about half price. I got my Nutrimill, Vitamix, and Kitchen Aid mixer this way. They all looked brand new and work great!
Thankyou, I have been confused about which grain to use for white bread flour. I purchase my grain from a farmer here in France and in France they use a different grading then in the UK. So you have explained a easier way of how the grading works and now I understand how it works. Also, I purchased a Mockmill 100 and I really love it...
Oh Sheila! I am so happy to hear that this video helped!! As to the Mockmill - yes, I love mine too!! Love, Mary
You are soon getting to be my favourite channel. Btw, you remind me of Carolyn at the Homesteading Family here at UA-cam. 😅
Thank you so much for the kind words! That is so funny that you mentioned Carolyn!! So many people have asked me if I am her mother. I actually don’t even know her...But I went over and watched her channel and found her delightful...so I take it as a big compliment! So glad you’re here!! Love, Mary❤️😘❤️
It's that Beautiful Teaching spirit in them both! I love Carolyn and Josh and Mary...such a wealth of INFO/WISDOM!!!
I have seen the Vitamix dry canisters for $99. Vitamix sends out sales notifications also. The reason they recommend a separate canister beside just the blade, is that, over time and lots of grinding, the grains will scratch the container and some don’t like that. At one point, you could just buy the dry blade and fit it to the cannister. I am thinking of getting the stainless cannister. My Vitamix is 20 years old and it is my most used appliance. I even pack it and take it with us camping!
Hi Katy, Wow!! This is all great information. Thank you so much for sharing the info about the dry canister! Love, Mary
I love your channel so much! Thank you for sharing all your knowledge! We are so fortunate. 😍🥰❤
I wish I would have come across this video while I was deciding what grain to buy! But still gleaning so much great information! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge
Dear Sweet Mary! You are truly extremely dedicated & GENEROUS with sharing your knowledge. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!
Thanks for sharing. I store most regularly accessed grains in half gallon Mason jars. The kids though rusted on some. Only rice I store in a square bucket with a snap on lid. We go through it quickly. We missed getting Daniel's school picture taken as we were unable to locate the entrance to the gym. All the doors we tried were locked. The first time we went the wrong way and were blocked by gates. We had to turn around and walk around the entire length of the school and back to the back on the other side. The last door which I didn't try the room was set up like a cafeteria so I didn't think it was the gym. The whole time it was raining hard so we were soaking wet. We did pick up his school meal delivery and I ordered some things for Dad and showed him how to check his email on his cell phone which he can only do here since he doesn't have internet access or cell phone signal on his house. I also addressed Christmas cards for you and my pen pal. When I did yours though accidentally wrote it upside down on the envelope. Will mail them Monday since it usually needs more postage. I was sleep deprived and exhausted from all the walking. Cardio is rough with exercise induced breathing problems. In my case my large bust doesn't allow my lungs to fully expand. I know since my breathing improved somewhat after a breast reduction but not completely since they are still proportionately too large. My airways are usually open.
Hi Jean, Thank you so much for always sharing your updates. So sorry you missed Daniel’s school picture. You have been so busy. Take some time to rest. Love, Mary
Thanks for the detailed info.. Both the visual and verbal (love the close ups). It is very helpful. I appreciate that you also have a break down of the time, so we can skip ahead or back up to a specific time. I really like your enthusiasm and knowledge. I'm glad that you even share places that we can go to if we want more info. Have a wonderful day :)
My mill is for a KitchenAid Standmixer. I bought it from a company, that went under because of the Covid. A few years before they did...Goldaskitchen. It was in Mississauga, Ontario, but shipped worldwide. I found their online catalogue really great, as going there wasn't an option for me. Was glad I got a few things from them before they went under. They sold most of their stock to places like McCall's.
Hi Evelyn, that was great you got that before they went out of business. I’m so sorry to hear however…that they did go out of business. But glad you have the KitchenAid attachment. Love, Mary❤️🤗❤️
Loved your video. I love my Mockmill and I use it every single day!!! I used the Vitamix with Dry Grain attachment for about 6 months but the Mockmill is far superior! Thanks for the great info!
Why is there mockmill better than the Vitamix? Thank you
Mrs. Mary, I feel like we should all be paying you! Great video, I can’t wait to dig into your blog, how many bay leaves would you use for the Mylar bags vs bucket?
Thanks Mary for sharing. I love your videos. God bless you
Thank you Mary for the informative video. I grow, store, and grind my homegrown corn. I purchase wheat berries and store them in 5 gals. buckets, too. I have the Mockmill attachment for my Kitchenaid stand mixer that works great and the grain mill attachment for the mixer as well. Also, I have the Country Living Grain Mill and the old cabinet style Magic Mill. I have all grounds covered. lol
Wonderful!! 🤗
Some day I will get me some of those nifty buckets and a grain mill. Until then I buy 12 pound bags non gmo flour, storing them in totes. Not the best, but it will have to suffice.
That is a great option for now. As to the buckets - yes, they are great but start slow. I would buy mine little by little. And years back they were readily available at Wal-Mart and quite reasonable. This year changed everything! But I think at some point, things will go back to normal. Love, Mary
@@MarysNest I doubt things will go back to before 2020, but change is good if it makes us better people (not masked people), like Heidi says: GOD is good, all the time!
Always better to have something than nothing right!?
Wow! I had that vitamix for many years. My motor finally gave out. I eventually bought a newer one. I still miss my original one.
I have that same Mockmill and can't say enough good things about it!
Hi Lisa, Me too!! I am so happy to hear that you are happy with it!! I have to say that initially I purchased it with some reservation because I wondered about the quality. Well my oh my!! I should have NEVER had any reservation!! It is made SO well!! And it works like a dream!! Like you...I can’t say enough good things about it!! Love, Mary
Do you have a book? All your knowledge should be in a book. I know nothing about many of these things, but I'm trying to learn. I just bought a bread machine, wheat berries, a mill, beans to take me and my family through the coming "famine."
I'm growing some amaranth and sorghum to mix in with my flour and dry corn, eventually buckwheat and oats
Hi Matthew, WOW!! That is fantastic!! Love, Mary
Matthew, that's exciting. I wish you success. It's something on my list too. Have you looked into "naked oats"? They are an, alas somewhat difficult to find, variety that don't have an outer husk, or the husk comes off easily - I've seen both mentioned, so maybe there are a couple of different varieties. This is easier for home growers, as regular whole, viable oats have a tough husk that is very difficult to remove. The downside is that they are a bit more fragile and more susceptible to mildew when growing. Another plus is that you can sprout them. There is also a naked barley. Regular barley has the same problems for home growers as oats. And the normal pearl barley and oat groats you buy at the wholefood shop are not viable, as the husk is mechanically removed which damages the germ.
One other amazing seed I just discovered is camelina. It is very similar to chia; tiny, high in omega 3 and protein and has a nice nutty taste. When wetted it also produces a mucilaginous coating. It is an ancient seed grown here in the UK again. It has an orage colour.
@@judyofthewoods wasn't able to find hull less kats here in Australia, i was also originally planning to grow rice but have delayed until next year
@@MatthewSherriff85 yeah, the hull less varieties are hard to find. I only recently managed to find some here in the UK. First discovered them in a German wholefood shop, where they are more popular.
Rice! Would never have associated it with Australia. But then again, would never have associated rice with France, but my most favourite rice ever is grown there - Carmague red rice. Lovely nutty flavour with a chewy texture. Definitely won't attempt to grow it here in Wales though.
Are you a farmer growing these grains/seeds at scale or for your own use only?
@@judyofthewoods not a farmer, just a backyard vegetable garden only a few things of sorghum and amaranth. Mostly growing corn to try and make masa for tortillas. Blue and white field corn
Mary, I have enjoyed having whole grains in my kitchen pantry for over 25 years now. I still use the same electric Whisper Mill or manual Family grain mill. The manual FGM is great for cracked grain cereals, cream of wheat style breakfast cereals and more. I do use a variety of grains, to include corn. I prefer the flavor of cornmeal when I mill popcorn instead of the regular dried corn kernels. Even with all of my experience, this video offered me greater knowledge concerning sifting flour to seperate the bran. Thank you!
Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful information! Love, Mary
Can you mill corn in your manual Family Grain Mill? I have heard conflicting information.
@@heidimoeder8101 I've never tried grinding corn manually. I guess because I've never needed to. It might work for the dried corn, but I would not attempt to grind popcorn in my particular manual grain mill.
If you put some dry ice in the bucket and put the lid on the cold and CO2 will kill the bugs and eggs
Love your videos you always pack them with great useful information
I’m glad your showing how to store the berries. I just bought hard white and rye.
Can you please show how to make Pemician?
Will do!!
Thank you so much for all your hard work. This video is much needed as I purchased a mock mill for all the good reasons you developed here. As I am new to grinding my flour, I am also concerned about storing the berries and your video covers all the important points. So grateful Mary ! 🙏🏻❤️
Can one just use a blender? I have a 14 speed Osterizer Blender which has a grind setting (3rd fastest spin of the blades).
Also I have been sort of growing my own Winter Wheat each year. Started with 1 head of wheat picked from a field and just keep replanting seeds every Autumn. This coming Spring, I should have a decent harvest as half my garden is planted with the Winter Wheat.
Hi Dan, wow… That’s great that you’re experimenting with growing your own wheat. As to a regular blender… I’m not sure. But that’s a very interesting question. I would research your particular blender online and see what others are saying. Thanks again for sharing! Love, Mary
Dan G, that is lovely, starting with 1 head of wheat and replanting. Just like Robinson Crusoe did - I think he found a few kernels. That was based on a true story, supposedly. Very inspiring.
Dan that is really great. I plant corn but may have to start planting some winter wheat as well. May I ask what variety of wheat are you growing and in what state?
@@janiceseigler6317 I'm in the northeastern part of Pennsylvania. I don't know what kind of Winter Wheat it is, as I had stopped and only picked 1 head from a plant in a field. Been replanting the seeds every year since, so this coming Spring I ought to have a good harvest of the Wheat. But if I grind it all, I won't have seed to plant in the fall again.
@@dang924 Definitely save that seed!
I have some wheat berries, from Bobs Mill, maybe planting in the spring, a small handfull. But on reading about wheats, they say that wheat robs all nutrients from soils. Could be why they had the problem out west, wheat takes everything, then erosion happens...but only a handful at a time, then you have to do all the things to make it possible to grind. Could be more trouble than just to get the berries, however will give it a try.
Hi Evelyn, Fascinating...thank you so much for sharing all of this! Love, Mary
Merry Christmas....Mary!! My Mockmill attachment for my Kitchenaid arrived today! I am so pleased, the good folks at Breadtopia honored your coupon, even on this item! It's a Christmas present....I can't wait to see it work! Merry Christmas to All!!
Hi Judy, yes… The coupon applies to anything on their site I believe. I’m so happy that you got the attachment and you’re happy with it. Look forward to hearing that you’re grinding a lot of grain and making a lot of homemade bread! Love, Mary❤️😘❤️
Mary, thank you so much for your videos. I am learning so much! Do you have a video showing how to make a spelt sourdough bread?
I love my Vitamin! I have a separate container for dry ingredients. I use it mainly to make my rye chops!
Hi Heidi, Thanks so much for sharing this!! Glad to hear that you are happy with grinding grain in the Vitamix! Love, Mary
What’s difference between wheat berries and wheat grains?
Thank you Mary for the tip about refrigerating or freezing your berries before grinding to keep it cooler. I just purchased a MockMill and haven’t used it yet. I’m going to start with making pancakes with Kamut. I have a ProLine 7 KitchenAid mixer and have to decide if I need to purchase another mixer. What type of mixer do you use? I enjoyed this video.
I have a KichenAid too! 😀
Sometimes one can find the Vitamix containers on ebay. I sold one on there when my new cabinets were installed because the 64 ounce container would not fit installed and switched to a 48 ounce container. There is a dry mix container on eBay right now with one bid for $38 plus shipping.
Hi Katy, Wow!! Thanks for sharing this info. Yes, I think eBay will be a great source for these things! Love, Mary
I love your apron!!
If you have a Blendtec with a Wildside Jar you can grind your wheat in it in 50 seconds.
Thank you so much
Mery
Thank You ! ! ! ❤️ 🙏 ❤️
I bought hard white berries. I’ve never milled before yet . I’m trying to get up my nerve to make a loaf of bread. I just got my electric sifter delivered. A lot of bloggers give us the video using the Bosch blender saying if you don’t have that don’t use the kitchen aid because it’s too much. So that leaves hand. I don’t have the strength to do all this by hand. 9 to 10 or more cups of flour is a lot to handle. One vlogger uses 9 to 9 1/2 cups of the milled flour and another 6 cups of all purpose flour. They are not talking to us who don’t have a house full of kids to cook for. So I’m looking for a down to earth vlogger that make a smaller amount of loaves.
Hi sweet Mary : love love ❤️ your videos. Could you please talk about the sun oven
You mentioned you have . 💞🙏
Hi Mary
What model number is your Vitamix? I might NEED to look for one of the older ones! I saw that they even sold the containers with dispensing spigots! It looks like a model either 1000 or 4000. I love it that Vitamix does repairs and is US made!
Hi Katy, My Vitamix was made about circa 1990 at the Vitamix factory in Ohio. I’m not sure if the modern day ones are made in the US anymore. Yes, mine came with all sorts of accessories including the second container with the spigot. Mine is the “Maxi-4000” and also has the word “Commercial” on it. It’s been so long now so I can’t remember exactly, but mine may have been a refurbished commercial model. But I think any Vitamix you buy from that era is going to be a workhorse and last you for another 30 years! Love, Mary
Mary, Love your channel, cant stop watching your videos, I do have a question. If I can only afford one grain to store in my prepper pantry, which one would you recommend. Red or white wheat berries?
Not sure if you know about Azure Standard food, wheat berry deliveries or not, love them.
Mary, where/how do you store your 5 gallon buckets?
Using 1/4” hardware cloth to enclose your storage shelf will keep all rodents out.
Azure Standard has red wheat berries for about $1/lb.
I ordered the Mockmill 100 off your site. Thank you for inspiring me to learn something new. 🍞 ❤
hi mary! i just found you and i am binge watching your videos! thank you for all the valuable info . I have a question: wheat beries and wheat kernels are different or the same? thank you
I simply trust Mary.
Thank you!
Do you have any information on sprouting wheat berries and making bread.? If so, can you please direct me to the video. thank you, I really enjoy your youtube channel.
I like to buy that three types of granding process so I keep each one for special grains or nuts thanks.
Very nice information, thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
I love watching your informative videos ❣️ Where do you get your bay leaves?
10:37 stupid question, could you use a vacuum-sealing bag with the machine? I don’t want to have to buy something special when i can use what I already have lol
Do you store your sprouted grain the same way you store non-sprouted wheat berries? Does it last as long? I just got my grain mill and I've soaked , sprouted and dried my grain. I'm just wondering about how to store prior to grinding it.
Great question! The process of sprouting grains makes them less susceptible to rancidity. Therefore, in a sense, sprouted grains store very well and to a certain extent even better than un-sprouted grains. But you still want to store them the same way whole grains are best stored - in an airtight container or mylar bag with oxygen absorbers in a cool, dark place. Stored appropriately, whole grains - sprouted or not - will stay fresh for many years. One special note - if you decided to store your sprouted grains in mylar bags, it is especially important that you need to make sure that they are completely dry to prevent the development of botulism. And of course, no matter what way you store them - in a bucket for example - they should be completely dry to prevent the development of mold. Hope this helps. Let me know if you need more info. You can watch the videos where I talk about properly storing grains and other foods here: ua-cam.com/play/PLkRuW3pBo2U3pFCTIgALrAm7hI8PbwSuR.html Love, Mary
Thank you very much Mary for the information about Coffee creamer
Mary, thank you for all your hard work.. I thank God for it and you! PIf your ever visiting Western NY.. or Niagara Falls please contact me and I'd love to meet up and give you a big hug and treat you to some wings☺️
Thank You✨
Thanks for your help, much appreciated!
Can you seal grain in mylar bags or vacuum seal the grain first, and then freeze it?? I do not have a large freezer to do big bags before packaging.
Thanks for the video! I have a Vitamix just like that!
Wow!! How about that!! It’s amazing how long they last!! Love, Mary
Do you grind your own corn meal,too. If you do where do you get your corn and what kind of corn? We always used plain field corn like is taken to the mill to grind for animal feed. Or garden corn that was left to get dry and hard.
Hi Mary, Have you ever processed farina for baking? I would like to try to bake bread with farina. Please help.
Great video, lots of info . Keep them coming, love your channel
Hi Karen, Thank you so much!! Glad you’re here!! Love, Mary❤️🤗❤️
Mary, do you sprout your berries before grinding? I do that way you get all the good stuff out of the grain and you digest it better!
Oh and the Vitamix is more than $299. Not to be rude but did you check to make sure these items were on the sites and at the prices you are quoting?
Hi Alicia, there are various models of the vitamix and if you check my link in the description, it will take you to a vitamix that, as of right now, is selling for $289. Also, presently, at Costco there is a vitamix that is selling for $299. Hope this helps. Love, Mary❤️🤗❤️
Great information Mary, thanks!
Hang on...is sifting flour how you get the wheat germ my mom put on my yogurt when I was a kid?
I always Lear things from you
Wonderful!! Glad you’re here!! Love, Mary
I can't find the Wonder Mill Junior on Lehman's site. Doesn't look like they carry it anymore.
OMG what a metaphor
Thank you sweet friend!
You are SO welcome!! Love, Mary
Mary, love your videos. Keep up the work, I learn a lot from you.
I do need some help. I bought a mill recently and milled 3 cups of hard red wheat berries to make bread and I failed. Here is the bread I used to make and it always worked out and I tried the same recipe with this hard red wheat flour and it didn’t rise.
I always mixed 3 cups of all purpose flour, 1.5 cups of warm water, 1tsp of dry yeast and 1tsp of salt. Mix it and next day I would bake a no knead bread. Well I did the same with this new flour that I just milled, the dough began to rise and it rose very little compared to the all purpose flour from the store. Next day I still baked it but it came out flat I love how dark and aromatic the bread was, but no rise and no puffiness that I am used it.
Please tell me what did I do wrong? Is it the fact that I did not sift the flour and remove germ?
Many thanks!
How do you make semolina flour for pasta?
