Hi Everyone, I wanted to mention that the shelf-life for sprouted flour is about 6 months if stored in an airtight container in a cool, dark place - like a pantry. Also, you can use sprouted flour to make yeasted breads or quick breads. I usually make sourdough for bread so I rarely use sprouted flour for that. However, when it comes to quick breads, I prefer to use sprouted flour because it is so easy - - - no different than using any other sort of flour. If I don't use sprouted flour for my quick breads, muffins, etc, then I have to use the soaking method, which I do not like. It is where you soak the flour overnight in a acidulated liquid at room temperature. Then the next day, you add the rest of the ingredients. Since quick breads, muffins, etc. should not be over-stirred, I find this method of having to stir in everything after the flour is wet to produce a tougher end product. That is why I treasure using sprouted flour for these type of baked goods. Love, Mary

Do you have to do this process for all grains? Ex: hard white wheat and soft white wheat? And how many cups of flour did you get from 2 cups of grains?
@@MarysNest thanks so much for the video. I want to order the dehydrator you linked. One question, after you drain and let them sit in the strainer overnight, do you cover them or leave them uncovered?
I listened to this on my drive to visit family. Just to hear your cheer and soothing voice! I would love to try this soon. Thank you for being such a welcoming, beloved daughter of God! Elizabeth
As a retired RN, doing nutritional teaching I have never heard of this before I found your channel just a few weeks ago. Not listed in any hospital nutrition handout either. Thanks Mary for opening my world to better, healthier foods.
Jana Porras - Oh Jana, You are SO sweet!! I am very happy that you are learning new thing here. Be sure to check out the book Nourishing Traditions by Sally Fallon. It’s a real eye opener. So glad you’re here!! Love, Mary❤️😘❤️
My mother had to see a nutritionist..they are still peddling seed oils and demonizing healthy fats. I'm not sure if it's ignorance or malice at this point.
The reason you never saw this is because our conventional medical system is flawed in terms of nutritional knowledge and prevention of disease and illness. You are simply taught basic nutrition knowledge based on the government recommendations that are influenced by the agricultural industry. Thats why we were taught to eat 6-11 servings of grains per day! Its all about money not health. Just like the medical system.
You are the the BEST Mary. I love all your videos. I am a recently retired Research Scientist (Biochemist), I am so very impressed with your breadth of knowledge on Food Science. I've only recently found your site so forgive me I don't know what your background is. I love Obi making his presence known. Please introduce him to the viewers.
That was so helpful. I’ve been grinding grain for about 10 years, but haven’t tried sprouting it. It’s been on my bucket list, but seemed intimidating. Your video was excellent. Thank you!

I deal with Osteoporosis-- I do not want to take the drugs - reading up on nutrition- I had previously started to hand mill grain for bread and have several grains and a new grain mill. However studying osteo nutrition suggests get rid of wheat from diet. It was a shock - but watching a Peter Reinhart video he had info concerning sprouted grains - takes out all the anti nutrients that keep the body from absorbing the good nutrients- this is very exciting bc learning a holistic approach to reverse the Osteoporosis is doable!
It is the glutein in modern wheat plus the use of herbicides that aggrivates osteo problems. Emmer, einkorn and maka flour are ancient grain flour. You can make pancakes with Maka and premium sea salt. Simple and gets you started. Lovely video lovely lady.
Hi Mary! I've done lots of sprouting of seeds for salads but recently have moved to milling grain and making bread (LOVE my Mockmill!) I knew I wanted to try sprouted flour and so I watched your video to see what I might learn. I have a nice wide shallow colander and I used your method...OMG! it was so quick. I put the colander inside my microwave to keep it warm and draft free as the kitchen is cold. I had lovely little sprouts in about 36 hours! and into the dehydrator at 110. I now have wonderful flour waiting to be ground and used. I noticed that the sprouted grains ARE a touch sweet and there's a depth of flavor I haven't found previously. Looking forward to using you wonderful method all the time! Thank you. I dearly love your videos.
Hi Sandy, Thank you so much for the kind words. Glad you are enjoying the videos...and I’m so happy you’re on this traditional foods journey with us. Love, Mary ❤️🤗❤️
Hi Mary, I have been absent for a few years. But I am so glad to be back to see your channel. The most incredible home nurturing takes place here at Mary’s Nest. I.e. have had some hard red winter wheat in my refrigerator for about six months. I took the seeds out about 2 cups and soaked them overnight. Then I put them in a sprouting tray watering them a couple of times a day it’s been about three days and the seeds smell fermented and they are slightly soft not hard like the unfrozen stored seeds. I use to make wheat grass. Many have sprouted, but I wondered if I should toss these and start again with the gentler soaking process
Hi Mary.. This was very well done.. It was great to show and tell about the difference between food dryer and oven drying methods for sprouted wheat berries. .. Thanks for sharing.
So happy to help. Let me know if you have any questions. Also - let me know if there are other things you would like me to make in Traditional Foods Cooking. I made the 15 basic videos that covered Bone Broth, Ferments, Cultured Dairy, Sourdough Starter and Sourdough Bread, and this one about sprouting grains. After that, I expanded my repertoire into cooking from scratch using some of these ingredients - and I also cover home remedies and thrifting. But I am always happy to revisit Traditional Foods Cooking (Nourishing Traditions Style), Thanks for your input. Love, Mary
Excellent presentation and I will starting to make my breads with sprouted grains. I am so looking forward to using this method and watching more of your videos. Thanks so much Mary!❤
Seems every time I need a healthier alternative to standard ingredients, I find one on this channel. I've been subscribed for quite a while, so you'd think I'd know to just come here first instead of doing a general search. 😁 Thanks... again. 🤗
Dear Mary thanks so much for the tips and hints you give us each recipe I am very impressed for your knowledge of food chemistry and the differences whys of the process in cooking and preparing the veggies and items in the recipes. Thank you so very much. We are learning a lot.
This is so embarrassing to admit but here it is anyway-just finished sprouting wheat berries and was so excited with how they turned out, I called my daughter to come over to see them before I put in dehydrator. You are right that they sprout much, much better in the colander. See how you are inspiring us!!! 🤗
Oh my goodness!! Joy - I am SO happy!! It is not embarrassing at all!! I do the same sort of thing!! LOL!! Yes - isn't the colander a dream - - - SO MUCH EASIER!! And no problem with mold!! So happy it worked for you!! SO happy you are here!! Love, Mary
Hi Mary. Thankyou for every recipe and alle the tips. I use so much of your recipes.and it nice.thankyou very much and God bless you. Love from me from South Africa🍇🍒🍓❤️❤️❤️.

In Hungary we have a sweet made from germinated wheat. Csíramálé or csiripiszli or kőtés. We eat it during Lent before Easter. It is very lengthy and complicated to prepare, so today few people make it at home. However, fortunately, in some parts of the country it is produced in small plants. I also learned the recipe from my grandmother and I make it every spring. The germinated wheat is ground through a meat grinder, then soaked in water and filtered. then the strained juice mixed with flour into a batter and baked in pans. The finished cake will be very sweet, without adding sugar.
Great video. So informative! I have a couple of questions though. How long can the sprouted and rried grain be stored in best conditions in vacuum sealed jars, and you mentioned the flour being good in quick breads. Does that mean it cannot reasonably be used to make yeasted breads? Looking forward to more videos. Thank you so much.
Hey Mary great video I'm not sure if I missed it but how long do you dry the wheat berries in the oven at 170? I looked at the comments but I didn't see anybody talking about that so if you could just let me know thank you.
Mary: another way to test the dryness of your sprouted grain is to place a kernel in you mouth placing it between your front teeth when you bite down if the grain crunches between your teeth. Or place a kernel near your molars and chew it if it is crunchy it is dry. Don't break your teeth if the grain is too hard though.
Thank you so much for your videos Mary, you mentioned that you would make a bread with the nuts you had dried in the video about drying nuts. Would you please make a video with your recipe? I want to try a good nutty bread recipe. Thank you so much.
Hi Ana, Thanks so much for the kind words! Yes, I have added that to my list and have it planned for 2020. I am going to make some sprouted breads and they will definitely contain nuts! Love, Mary
Mary God put you in my life at the exact right time. This whole traditional foods thing has intimidated me, but you present the info so well! I need to start re-incorporating foods and I need to figure out what to do, so thanks! Is a vacuum sealed canning jar an air-tight container one could use for wheat berries and sprouted flours and such?
Oh Susan!! You are so sweet. I feel the same way about you - God put YOU in my life a the exact right time!! Vacuum sealed canning jar sounds wonderful to store the flour. It will stay fresh for about 6 months stored like that - and keep it in a dark cool place like a pantry!! Can't wait till you start cooking!! Love, Mary
@Mary's Nest, great video with detailed explanation. How about sun drying the sprouted wheat? Would that be fine or not? I live in a country with plenty of sunshine and do not have a dehydrator. Thank you and many blessings!
Nicholas Anulobi - Hi Nicholas, Thank you SO much for visiting! Yes, if you live in a sunny, dry climate, you can dry things in the sun. Just make sure that you cover the sprouted grain with a very light covering such as some screening or a thin flour sack towel or dish towel. Keep me posted on how it turns out. BTW - Do you enjoy making other traditional foods? I have a playlist of my videos titled "Mastering the Basics of Traditional Nutrient Dense Foods Cooking".

I just made your easy no-knead sandwich bread today, and then topped off a couple of slices with the low-sugar strawberry jam your video showed me how to make last Sunday. Now I'm "so intrigued" on sprouting grains. I looked @ Amazon for the berries and I see things like "Soft white" berries and "Hard Red" berries. Can you explain the difference and which one I should use? My husband has trouble chewing due to radiation therapy from years ago, so I need to use the ones that produce the softest product possible. But I LOVE these incredible avenues you have opened for me. Thank you.
Oh Elizabeth! I am so happy to hear how you are enjoying making these foods! And yes, I understand that you want to make soft foods for your husband. Hope he is doing well now. I would recommend that you start with hard red wheat berries. Those are your basic "whole wheat" berries for baking bread. Soft wheat berries are also whole wheat but are better for using when baking pastries. Once ground, they make pastry flour. Hope this helps. Keep me posted on how it all turns out and please let me know if you have any questions. Love, Mary
@@MarysNest I will; thank you. Unfortunately my husband will eventually lose all of his teeth, and because of the radiation there is no hope for implants or dentures as the bones in his gums are decaying. We take it one day at a time. When he had to have some oral surgery, I found you can just about "liquify" anything. I turned to liquid spaghetti & meatballs, pot roast, oatmeal + scrambled eggs, to name a few. It's all about the flavors! Now that I make your mineral soup and getting whey from things like yogurt (I'm making my own cream cheese)...I can get the probiotics he needs and huge doses of minerals and vitamins in a natural way...no pills or liquid medications! You are a true blessing to me!
Elizabeth Temple - Oh Elizabeth!! You are such a wonderful person to work so hard at creating good foods to give your husband proper nutrition. Does he ever enjoy probiotic rich cool beverages like kombucha, water Kefir, or even something very simple like sparkling water with a splash of honey and teaspoon of raw apple cider vinegar? That’s another great way to get probiotics into his diet. My father had Parkinson’s disease and passed away a few years ago but I know what you mean about having to liquefy foods. Toward the end of my dad‘s life, all he could eat were basically puréed foods. Like you, I discovered pretty much anything can be puréed and still be tasty. It’s a good thing that my dad loved thick soups! Keep up the great work and let me know whenever I can be of assistance to you. Love, Mary❤️😘❤️
What if you turn your oven on and off a few times to keep the temp down? And of course with the oven door slightly open all the time. It probably won't be as hot as the lowest temperature that your oven goes. Just a thought/suggestion that might work better than just having it at 170° the whole time.
Hello Mary I enjoy watching your videos alot so thank you for sharing your knowledge. Why is it that when I make spelt bread I need to use nearly double the flour to my white bread.
Definitely! And here is a video with all my best tips and tricks for when it comes to grinding grain. Including in the Vitamix: ua-cam.com/video/ED1TqgyieCg/v-deo.html Love, Mary❤️🤗❤️
I don't have a food scale or a flour mill. However there's an Amish market a few miles from me. I can get sprouted whole wheat flour there. So that's what I will do.
I dont have a dehydrator but I do have a freeze drier..... im thinking that I could sprout the grains and then freeze dry them which would be even more preserving of the nutritional value of the grains and then make flour from the freeze dried sprouted berries. Also the benefit of freeze drying is that there's even more moisture removal guarantee from the sublimation process.
I just di is sprouting of wheat berries, & dried in dehydrate, but my mock mill didn’t like grinding them? O yo have any ideas? Thy looked like yours. Thanks for sharing sharing 🙏🏼
Hello Mary, I love your recipes and videos very much. You are full of love and knowledge. I need your advise please. Can I use the dry granular yeast straight from the fridge where I have been keeping it recently. I noticed that my bread rises then the top layer separates after cooling. Perhaps you can guide me on what I’m doing wrong. I would really appreciate it
Great question. Yes, you can use the yeast right out of the fridge but proof it in warm water 110F). Hmmm...as to the split on top, that is usually normal. Can you describe it more to me? Thanks! Love, Mary❤️🤗❤️
Thanks for your quick response. I am making the bread round and on a baking tray. After the bread cools down the skin on top seems to collapse thus creating a hallowing or a between the top crusty layer and the spongy middle layer. I am baking the bread on 350 f about 15 minutes. Could it be it’s not cooked long enough. Have a great day
So according to traditional preparing of grains you don't have to do both processes - sprouting and fermenting (for sourdough bread)? Just one or the other is enough?
Hi Mary! First of all, I’d love to say that I love watching all of your videos. They are very informative with excellent detail of every recipe. My question is that when I put water in a jar on the table overnight, do I have to keep the cover on or off?? Also, how long can I keep sourdough starter in the fridge before I have to use it up?? ❤️
Hi Kathy, thanks for visiting and for the kind words. Keep the cover on loosely. If you don’t want to use your sourdough starter right away, you can put it in the refrigerator and just feed it once a week to keep it alive. You never want to really use it all up.

Mary's Nest thank you Mary for answering my questions and yes I’m very much interested in ALL of your videos. I used to ask my mom all about bread making years ago but now that she past 5 years ago, I had no one to ask or rely on. Not until I saw one of your videos about a month ago and I’ve been hooked every since. Sometimes I even watch them twice 🥰. Keep up the great work and never stop supplying us with useful and informative recipes. Thank you again. Love ❤️ Kathy 😘😘
Wonderful video. Thanks. Can one air-dry the sprouted grains if one doesn't have an oven or a dehydrator? If yes, how long should it air-dried for to get fully dry?
Hi Adanna, Thanks so much for visiting! That is an excellent question! Yes, you can air dry the sprouted grains - especially if you live in a hot dry climate. You can cover them with a very thin dish towel or flour sack towel - to protect them from bugs - and let them dry in the sun. Hope this helps. BTW - Do you enjoy making traditional foods?

Question: After you dehydrate the grain at 110°, grind it into flour, and then you use it in baking where most recipes call for a higher temperature... you are then killing the live food. Are there recipes out there with lower temps that keep the live food status, other than nut bars? I will definite be sprouting my own grain and make flour, but I sure would love to know if you are aware of any recipes for breads or such that bake at the lower temp. I used to sprout grain years ago when I went to Optimum Health Institute and learned to make raw foods. This is a much easier process for sprouting, IMO. Love those collanders; ordering them now through your link.
I eliminate the drying process. I just grind the sprouted grain in my high powered Blendtec Blender and then i bake it. It reduced the work process and the bread is more nutritious.
@ub3794 sometimes, but not always. Sometimes I make it with finely ground grain and yeast or barm and sometimes I want it dryer and chunkier bread, like German brot with pumpernickel or wheat. Sometimes I use molasses too. I just experiment and I like hard and soft bread...fisherman background in family so dryer bread is normal for use on water....
Can you sprout and dehydrate the berries, and store in the sprouted state for a longer shelf life than the 6 months? Or should this be turned into flour right away?
The blender heats up the grain and it spoils quickly, she recommends freezing the wheat berries before blending. I’m using my blender for a small amount that I use immediately… but I am a novice
Hi Mary. Can you tell me how you combat mold growing on the grains? I haven't tried spouting grains for myself, but I did try doing some for our chickens, and even though I did them the same way you are, I ran into a serious mold problem. Any ideas?
Hmmm…that is interesting. You might want to pull back on the “watering” and shake them multiple times during the day in the colander to help them dry out a bit. Also, try to make sure that their environment is not too warm. 68F would be good. A cooler, less wet environment may help combat the mold. Keep me posted. Love, Mary🤗
I have a question, sorry if I overlooked an answer in the comments. I soaked and dried about 6 cups and of that I have about a cup and half that did not sprout. What do I do with them? Should I go ahead and grind them?
I apologize if i missed this but i dont recall you mentioning how long it took to dry properly in the dehydrator? You have very informative videos. Thanks!
Thank you so much for visiting and thank you for the kind words! So glad to hear that you find my videos informative! To dry the wheat berries in a dehydrator, it can take anywhere from 12-24 hours. Start checking them at 12 hours. Hope this info helps. Also, if you open the description under the video, there is a direct link to printable instructions for this over on my website.

If I recall correctly, sprouting the grain converts some of the starch to sugar. That is why the resulting baked goods are a bit less dense and are more digestible.
Why do you not use it in sourdough? I'm assuming it doesn't work well, but I'm thinking about trying it as a portion of the flour. Just wondering if that would work.
Hi Lacy, Thanks for visiting! You can definitely use sprouted flour in a sourdough but it's not necessary. Since the flour has already been "sprouted" it is easier to digest and absorb the nutrients. So this is a great flour to use when you want to bake with yeast or make quick breads. Generally, you want to prepare your baked goods either by souring or sprouting but you don't need to do both.

Could you please share a recipe for sprouted legume bread? ( compared to Natural Grocers Organic loaf by Vitamin Cottage). How do you sprout millet,barley,,garbanzo beans,spelt, lentils? Will the cost be less or more for homemade?
I was wondering what happens if you soak the wheat berries to long. This was my first time sprouting wheat and I ended up soaking the berries for 3 days - when I discovered error on my part i have continued with rinsing and returning to covered bowl twice a day. Do I need to start over due to oversoaking? I am starting on day 5 and am starting to see small tails. So just wondering what to do. So just wondering what I should do at this point.
drmseeker - Thanks for visiting! Well water is great. You just want to avoid chlorinated water. How are you enjoying the videos? Do you find them helpful. Love, Mary❤️😘❤️
THE FARMER WAY to tell if wheat is dry is to bite a few kernels with your teeth. If it crunches, it's dry. If it is still wet, it will be soft. You will be surprised how fast you can learn to tell the difference. (From someone who has chewed a LOT of wheat) They also make "moisture testers," but they can be a bit pricey for minimal use.

I have been sprouting wheat and beans for sprouts for years. These are only germinated. You have created what is known as malted wheat. The "sprouts" have not yet appeared. Sprouts are actually a vegetable. Nothing wrong, still very healthy.
Thank you so much for the clarification. I think of this as soaking and "sprouting" - as in sprouting just enough to make spouted flour. If you let the grains sprout too much - the flour does not come out very good for baking. Thanks so much for sharing your info! I'm glad you're here!! Love, Mary
Is there any chance this would be more diabetic friendly? We have not been eating bread to cut down on carbs. Any advice is most appreciated. Thank you.
bffbecky - Hi Becky, That is a wonderful question!! I am not a doctor or a nutritionist so I can not say for sure. However, I have read that Sprouted Grains, Breads made from Sprouted Grains, and Sourdough Breads may have less impact on blood sugar. But definitely check with your doc or diabetes nutritionist to find out if these would be allowable foods for your health condition. Hope this helps! I am so happy that you are here because i am a firm believer that eating a diet of properly prepared traditional “nutrient dense” foods is better for our overall health than the Standard American Diet (“SAD”). Please let me know if you have any other questions. I am so happy to help and SO HAPPY to “meet” other folks who are interested in learning about traditional foods. Love, Mary❤️😘❤️
Thank you for this awesome video! I will be watching your whole playlist. I wondered....is there a way to make a sprouted bread right away while the sprouts are still wet?? Like, omitting the dehydrating and just mixing somehow right away? Just curious.
Hi Everyone, I wanted to mention that the shelf-life for sprouted flour is about 6 months if stored in an airtight container in a cool, dark place - like a pantry. Also, you can use sprouted flour to make yeasted breads or quick breads. I usually make sourdough for bread so I rarely use sprouted flour for that. However, when it comes to quick breads, I prefer to use sprouted flour because it is so easy - - - no different than using any other sort of flour. If I don't use sprouted flour for my quick breads, muffins, etc, then I have to use the soaking method, which I do not like. It is where you soak the flour overnight in a acidulated liquid at room temperature. Then the next day, you add the rest of the ingredients. Since quick breads, muffins, etc. should not be over-stirred, I find this method of having to stir in everything after the flour is wet to produce a tougher end product. That is why I treasure using sprouted flour for these type of baked goods. Love, Mary
You are a brilliant woman ♡♡♡

@@MarysNest thanks so much for the video. I want to order the dehydrator you linked. One question, after you drain and let them sit in the strainer overnight, do you cover them or leave them uncovered?
Thank you thank you I have been looking for this information and found it right after I sent you a email asking this question♥️

My mother had to see a nutritionist..they are still peddling seed oils and demonizing healthy fats. I'm not sure if it's ignorance or malice at this point.
The reason you never saw this is because our conventional medical system is flawed in terms of nutritional knowledge and prevention of disease and illness.
You are simply taught basic nutrition knowledge based on the government recommendations that are influenced by the agricultural industry. Thats why we were taught to eat 6-11 servings of grains per day! Its all about money not health. Just like the medical system.
Really great info. I'm a 32 yo male. Never thought I would enjoy a classic looking cooking show. 😁

That was so helpful. I’ve been grinding grain for about 10 years, but haven’t tried sprouting it. It’s been on my bucket list, but seemed intimidating. Your video was excellent. Thank you!

reminds me of bean sprouts
Sweet Mary, Thanks so much, I love the way you explain everything, So easy to under stand. love watching you!
I deal with Osteoporosis-- I do not want to take the drugs - reading up on nutrition- I had previously started to hand mill grain for bread and have several grains and a new grain mill. However studying osteo nutrition suggests get rid of wheat from diet. It was a shock - but watching a Peter Reinhart video he had info concerning sprouted grains - takes out all the anti nutrients that keep the body from absorbing the good nutrients- this is very exciting bc learning a holistic approach to reverse the Osteoporosis is doable!
Wishing you all the best! I am concerned about osteoporosis also and won’t take bone drugs. Stay active as much as you can! Blessings!
It is the glutein in modern wheat plus the use of herbicides that aggrivates osteo problems. Emmer, einkorn and maka flour are ancient grain flour. You can make pancakes with Maka and premium sea salt. Simple and gets you started. Lovely video lovely lady.
Hi Mary! I've done lots of sprouting of seeds for salads but recently have moved to milling grain and making bread (LOVE my Mockmill!) I knew I wanted to try sprouted flour and so I watched your video to see what I might learn. I have a nice wide shallow colander and I used your method...OMG! it was so quick. I put the colander inside my microwave to keep it warm and draft free as the kitchen is cold. I had lovely little sprouts in about 36 hours! and into the dehydrator at 110. I now have wonderful flour waiting to be ground and used. I noticed that the sprouted grains ARE a touch sweet and there's a depth of flavor I haven't found previously. Looking forward to using you wonderful method all the time! Thank you. I dearly love your videos.
Hi Sandy, Thank you so much for the kind words. Glad you are enjoying the videos...and I’m so happy you’re on this traditional foods journey with us. Love, Mary ❤️🤗❤️
Hi Mary, I have been absent for a few years. But I am so glad to be back to see your channel. The most incredible home nurturing takes place here at Mary’s Nest. I.e. have had some hard red winter wheat in my refrigerator for about six months. I took the seeds out about 2 cups and soaked them overnight. Then I put them in a sprouting tray watering them a couple of times a day it’s been about three days and the seeds smell fermented and they are slightly soft not hard like the unfrozen stored seeds. I use to make wheat grass. Many have sprouted, but I wondered if I should toss these and start again with the gentler soaking process
I love your videos. I am diabetic so i look for all ways so lower my carbs without cutting out food.
Hi Mary.. This was very well done.. It was great to show and tell about the difference between food dryer and oven drying methods for sprouted wheat berries. .. Thanks for sharing.
So happy to help. Let me know if you have any questions. Also - let me know if there are other things you would like me to make in Traditional Foods Cooking. I made the 15 basic videos that covered Bone Broth, Ferments, Cultured Dairy, Sourdough Starter and Sourdough Bread, and this one about sprouting grains. After that, I expanded my repertoire into cooking from scratch using some of these ingredients - and I also cover home remedies and thrifting. But I am always happy to revisit Traditional Foods Cooking (Nourishing Traditions Style), Thanks for your input. Love, Mary
Excellent presentation and I will starting to make my breads with sprouted grains. I am so looking forward to using this method and watching more of your videos. Thanks so much Mary!❤
love your presentations
love your personality ..Mary
Best video on making sprouted wheat flour!
Am new to this-have ordered a mockmil(on back order) and have purchased white wheat berries. Glad I found this video on sprouted wheat berries. Tnks.
I’m so glad I found your page, thank you
Hi Shawn, Welcome! So glad you’re here!! Love, Mary
Seems every time I need a healthier alternative to standard ingredients, I find one on this channel. I've been subscribed for quite a while, so you'd think I'd know to just come here first instead of doing a general search. 😁 Thanks... again. 🤗
Dear Mary thanks so much for the tips and hints you give us each recipe I am very impressed for your knowledge of food chemistry and the differences whys of the process in cooking and preparing the veggies and items in the recipes. Thank you so very much. We are learning a lot.
Thanks for sharing & God bless you 🙂!
This is so embarrassing to admit but here it is anyway-just finished sprouting wheat berries and was so excited with how they turned out, I called my daughter to come over to see them before I put in dehydrator. You are right that they sprout much, much better in the colander. See how you are inspiring us!!! 🤗
Oh my goodness!! Joy - I am SO happy!! It is not embarrassing at all!! I do the same sort of thing!! LOL!! Yes - isn't the colander a dream - - - SO MUCH EASIER!! And no problem with mold!! So happy it worked for you!! SO happy you are here!! Love, Mary
👍💝 Just finding these first videos. They are all gems. Have a great day!
I am learning about all this just now, I never knew. So glad to have found your lovely channel! kind regards from Austria!
Hi Mary. Thankyou for every recipe and alle the tips. I use so much of your recipes.and it nice.thankyou very much and God bless you. Love from me from South Africa🍇🍒🍓❤️❤️❤️.

This was a really good explanation - thank you 😊
Amazing videos Mary! These are so informative and helpful omg! You rock!!
Thank YOU!!
Super explanation Mary. Thank you
In Hungary we have a sweet made from germinated wheat. Csíramálé or csiripiszli or kőtés. We eat it during Lent before Easter. It is very lengthy and complicated to prepare, so today few people make it at home. However, fortunately, in some parts of the country it is produced in small plants. I also learned the recipe from my grandmother and I make it every spring. The germinated wheat is ground through a meat grinder, then soaked in water and filtered. then the strained juice mixed with flour into a batter and baked in pans. The finished cake will be very sweet, without adding sugar.
Excellent!
You have such a nice teaching method. It's easy to learn from you.
Lots of great information! Thank you!
Michaela Hoffman - Hi Michaela, So glad you liked this video!! Let me know if you have any questions!! Love, Mary❤️😘❤️
Thank you for sharing this video! Can the water drained off from soaking be used as a yogurt starter?
Thank you 💐
Great video. So informative! I have a couple of questions though. How long can the sprouted and rried grain be stored in best conditions in vacuum sealed jars, and you mentioned the flour being good in quick breads. Does that mean it cannot reasonably be used to make yeasted breads? Looking forward to more videos. Thank you so much.
Great information! Thanks for sharing!
Hey Mary great video I'm not sure if I missed it but how long do you dry the wheat berries in the oven at 170? I looked at the comments but I didn't see anybody talking about that so if you could just let me know thank you.
I noticed she said between 8-12 hours near the end of the video!
Very informative. Stay blessed
I'll probably comment again, but before I get lost in this video...
I love your beautiful apron!
Mary: another way to test the dryness of your sprouted grain is to place a kernel in you mouth placing it between your front teeth when you bite down if the grain crunches between your teeth. Or place a kernel near your molars and chew it if it is crunchy it is dry. Don't break your teeth if the grain is too hard though.
Interesting tip!
This is so great! Thank you for this! 🙂 I plan to do this with barley as well. Is it ok to sun dry them as another way of dehydrating?
Yes, absolutely. Just protect them from dust, insects, etc. with mesh screening or light weight cotton towels (no lint). Love, Mary
@@MarysNest awesome thank you so much Mary 😊 LOVE your positive energy ❤️
Really impressive great job well done
Now I know wh thg I fail at sprouting...I always try in a jar..this makes so much more sense🤷♀️
Me too!
Thank you!
Thank you so much for your videos Mary, you mentioned that you would make a bread with the nuts you had dried in the video about drying nuts. Would you please make a video with your recipe? I want to try a good nutty bread recipe. Thank you so much.
Hi Ana, Thanks so much for the kind words! Yes, I have added that to my list and have it planned for 2020. I am going to make some sprouted breads and they will definitely contain nuts! Love, Mary
Thanks Mary, I have my grains in the dehydrator now! 😃 How long will they take to dry?
Could you use seed sprouting trays?
Mary God put you in my life at the exact right time. This whole traditional foods thing has intimidated me, but you present the info so well! I need to start re-incorporating foods and I need to figure out what to do, so thanks! Is a vacuum sealed canning jar an air-tight container one could use for wheat berries and sprouted flours and such?
Oh Susan!! You are so sweet. I feel the same way about you - God put YOU in my life a the exact right time!! Vacuum sealed canning jar sounds wonderful to store the flour. It will stay fresh for about 6 months stored like that - and keep it in a dark cool place like a pantry!! Can't wait till you start cooking!! Love, Mary
@Mary's Nest, great video with detailed explanation. How about sun drying the sprouted wheat? Would that be fine or not? I live in a country with plenty of sunshine and do not have a dehydrator. Thank you and many blessings!
Nicholas Anulobi - Hi Nicholas, Thank you SO much for visiting! Yes, if you live in a sunny, dry climate, you can dry things in the sun. Just make sure that you cover the sprouted grain with a very light covering such as some screening or a thin flour sack towel or dish towel. Keep me posted on how it turns out. BTW - Do you enjoy making other traditional foods? I have a playlist of my videos titled "Mastering the Basics of Traditional Nutrient Dense Foods Cooking".

I just made your easy no-knead sandwich bread today, and then topped off a couple of slices with the low-sugar strawberry jam your video showed me how to make last Sunday. Now I'm "so intrigued" on sprouting grains. I looked @ Amazon for the berries and I see things like "Soft white" berries and "Hard Red" berries. Can you explain the difference and which one I should use? My husband has trouble chewing due to radiation therapy from years ago, so I need to use the ones that produce the softest product possible. But I LOVE these incredible avenues you have opened for me. Thank you.
Oh Elizabeth! I am so happy to hear how you are enjoying making these foods! And yes, I understand that you want to make soft foods for your husband. Hope he is doing well now. I would recommend that you start with hard red wheat berries. Those are your basic "whole wheat" berries for baking bread. Soft wheat berries are also whole wheat but are better for using when baking pastries. Once ground, they make pastry flour. Hope this helps. Keep me posted on how it all turns out and please let me know if you have any questions. Love, Mary
@@MarysNest I will; thank you. Unfortunately my husband will eventually lose all of his teeth, and because of the radiation there is no hope for implants or dentures as the bones in his gums are decaying. We take it one day at a time. When he had to have some oral surgery, I found you can just about "liquify" anything. I turned to liquid spaghetti & meatballs, pot roast, oatmeal + scrambled eggs, to name a few. It's all about the flavors! Now that I make your mineral soup and getting whey from things like yogurt (I'm making my own cream cheese)...I can get the probiotics he needs and huge doses of minerals and vitamins in a natural way...no pills or liquid medications! You are a true blessing to me!
Elizabeth Temple - Oh Elizabeth!! You are such a wonderful person to work so hard at creating good foods to give your husband proper nutrition. Does he ever enjoy probiotic rich cool beverages like kombucha, water Kefir, or even something very simple like sparkling water with a splash of honey and teaspoon of raw apple cider vinegar? That’s another great way to get probiotics into his diet. My father had Parkinson’s disease and passed away a few years ago but I know what you mean about having to liquefy foods. Toward the end of my dad‘s life, all he could eat were basically puréed foods. Like you, I discovered pretty much anything can be puréed and still be tasty. It’s a good thing that my dad loved thick soups! Keep up the great work and let me know whenever I can be of assistance to you. Love, Mary❤️😘❤️
I dry my soaked nuts on top of a radiator in winter, I put the nuts into a colander and leave them on the radiator for about three days.
What if you turn your oven on and off a few times to keep the temp down? And of course with the oven door slightly open all the time. It probably won't be as hot as the lowest temperature that your oven goes. Just a thought/suggestion that might work better than just having it at 170° the whole time.
Hello Mary I enjoy watching your videos alot so thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Why is it that when I make spelt bread I need to use nearly double the flour to my white bread.
How long did you dehydrate the grains? Love your channel!
Thank you for this detailed video, Mary! What are some alternatives to grinding the sprouted grains? Would a Vitamix work?
Definitely! And here is a video with all my best tips and tricks for when it comes to grinding grain. Including in the Vitamix: ua-cam.com/video/ED1TqgyieCg/v-deo.html Love, Mary❤️🤗❤️
@@MarysNest thanks so much, Mary!!!
I don't have a food scale or a flour mill. However there's an Amish market a few miles from me. I can get sprouted whole wheat flour there. So that's what I will do.
I dont have a dehydrator but I do have a freeze drier..... im thinking that I could sprout the grains and then freeze dry them which would be even more preserving of the nutritional value of the grains and then make flour from the freeze dried sprouted berries. Also the benefit of freeze drying is that there's even more moisture removal guarantee from the sublimation process.
Can you use a splatter screen (or two or three) instead of the mesh colander?
I just di is sprouting of wheat berries, & dried in dehydrate, but my mock mill didn’t like grinding them? O yo have any ideas? Thy looked like yours. Thanks for sharing sharing 🙏🏼
Hello Mary, I love your recipes and videos very much. You are full of love and knowledge. I need your advise please. Can I use the dry granular yeast straight from the fridge where I have been keeping it recently. I noticed that my bread rises then the top layer separates after cooling. Perhaps you can guide me on what I’m doing wrong. I would really appreciate it
Great question. Yes, you can use the yeast right out of the fridge but proof it in warm water 110F). Hmmm...as to the split on top, that is usually normal. Can you describe it more to me? Thanks! Love, Mary❤️🤗❤️
Thanks for your quick response. I am making the bread round and on a baking tray. After the bread cools down the skin on top seems to collapse thus creating a hallowing or a between the top crusty layer and the spongy middle layer. I am baking the bread on 350 f about 15 minutes. Could it be it’s not cooked long enough. Have a great day
So according to traditional preparing of grains you don't have to do both processes - sprouting and fermenting (for sourdough bread)? Just one or the other is enough?
Hi Mary! First of all, I’d love to say that I love watching all of your videos. They are very informative with excellent detail of every recipe. My question is that when I put water in a jar on the table overnight, do I have to keep the cover on or off?? Also, how long can I keep sourdough starter in the fridge before I have to use it up?? ❤️
Hi Kathy, thanks for visiting and for the kind words. Keep the cover on loosely. If you don’t want to use your sourdough starter right away, you can put it in the refrigerator and just feed it once a week to keep it alive. You never want to really use it all up. Does that make sense? Do you enjoy making other traditional foods? If so, I have a playlist of some of my videos titled "Mastering the Basics of Traditional Nutrient Dense Foods Cooking".

Mary's Nest thank you Mary for answering my questions and yes I’m very much interested in ALL of your videos. I used to ask my mom all about bread making years ago but now that she past 5 years ago, I had no one to ask or rely on. Not until I saw one of your videos about a month ago and I’ve been hooked every since. Sometimes I even watch them twice 🥰. Keep up the great work and never stop supplying us with useful and informative recipes. Thank you again. Love ❤️ Kathy 😘😘
Wonderful video. Thanks. Can one air-dry the sprouted grains if one doesn't have an oven or a dehydrator? If yes, how long should it air-dried for to get fully dry?
Hi Adanna, Thanks so much for visiting! That is an excellent question! Yes, you can air dry the sprouted grains - especially if you live in a hot dry climate. You can cover them with a very thin dish towel or flour sack towel - to protect them from bugs - and let them dry in the sun. Hope this helps. BTW - Do you enjoy making traditional foods?

Thanks a lot.
Is it necessary to dry the sprouts? What about grinding and baking it moist ?
Question: After you dehydrate the grain at 110°, grind it into flour, and then you use it in baking where most recipes call for a higher temperature... you are then killing the live food. Are there recipes out there with lower temps that keep the live food status, other than nut bars? I will definite be sprouting my own grain and make flour, but I sure would love to know if you are aware of any recipes for breads or such that bake at the lower temp.
I used to sprout grain years ago when I went to Optimum Health Institute and learned to make raw foods. This is a much easier process for sprouting, IMO. Love those collanders; ordering them now through your link.
I eliminate the drying process. I just grind the sprouted grain in my high powered Blendtec Blender and then i bake it. It reduced the work process and the bread is more nutritious.
Hey I was thinking of doing this. Do you add yeast or a starter before baking?
@ub3794 sometimes, but not always. Sometimes I make it with finely ground grain and yeast or barm and sometimes I want it dryer and chunkier bread, like German brot with pumpernickel or wheat. Sometimes I use molasses too. I just experiment and I like hard and soft bread...fisherman background in family so dryer bread is normal for use on water....
@@janetbrowning6602 That's nice. I've never made bread before. Will look into what you've mentioned. I'm trying to find easier ways to bake bread
Do you have a video on sprouting barley?
I used to be able to get Ezekiel bread, but can't get it in our area any more. As much as I love swishy white bread, I liked this in a different way.
linda chandler - Hi Linda, Good news...I’ll have a video about Ezekiel bread next month!! Love, Mary🤗
@@MarysNest AWESOME!
Can you sprout and dehydrate the berries, and store in the sprouted state for a longer shelf life than the 6 months? Or should this be turned into flour right away?
Hi Mary. Thanks for the video! I'm wondering, can I use my high speed blender to make the flour after the sprouted wheat has been dried? Thanks again.
The blender heats up the grain and it spoils quickly, she recommends freezing the wheat berries before blending. I’m using my blender for a small amount that I use immediately… but I am a novice
Hi Mary we have a Culligan water system. Can we use filtered drinking water?
Hi Mary. Can you tell me how you combat mold growing on the grains? I haven't tried spouting grains for myself, but I did try doing some for our chickens, and even though I did them the same way you are, I ran into a serious mold problem. Any ideas?
Hmmm…that is interesting. You might want to pull back on the “watering” and shake them multiple times during the day in the colander to help them dry out a bit. Also, try to make sure that their environment is not too warm. 68F would be good. A cooler, less wet environment may help combat the mold. Keep me posted. Love, Mary🤗
@@MarysNest ok. I think you found the culprit. My house is very warm and humid. Maybe I will crank the ac up a bit while trying this again. Thank you!
Can I just lay them on my dehydrator trays and moisten that way until they sprout? I don’t have a colander like that to use
I have a question, sorry if I overlooked an answer in the comments. I soaked and dried about 6 cups and of that I have about a cup and half that did not sprout. What do I do with them? Should I go ahead and grind them?
Sometimes this can happen. Trying to pick them out would be overly laborious, so I would go ahead and dry them and grind them. 🤗
I apologize if i missed this but i dont recall you mentioning how long it took to dry properly in the dehydrator? You have very informative videos. Thanks!
Thank you so much for visiting and thank you for the kind words! So glad to hear that you find my videos informative! To dry the wheat berries in a dehydrator, it can take anywhere from 12-24 hours. Start checking them at 12 hours. Hope this info helps. Also, if you open the description under the video, there is a direct link to printable instructions for this over on my website.

Thank you so much. Mine are ready to be dehydrated and was also curious how long I should expect for them to dry. Thanks again. Love your videos.
If I recall correctly, sprouting the grain converts some of the starch to sugar. That is why the resulting baked goods are a bit less dense and are more digestible.
If I don’t have the grinder could I use my blender?
Does spouting your grains make the finished product taste different?
I never have heard of wheat berries. Can you explain waht they are and where do we get them??
Can you do this with quinoa, buckwheat or other grains?
Hi
Should I do the same with Buckwheat? I want to make flour with it.
Why do you not use it in sourdough? I'm assuming it doesn't work well, but I'm thinking about trying it as a portion of the flour. Just wondering if that would work.
Hi Lacy, Thanks for visiting! You can definitely use sprouted flour in a sourdough but it's not necessary. Since the flour has already been "sprouted" it is easier to digest and absorb the nutrients. So this is a great flour to use when you want to bake with yeast or make quick breads. Generally, you want to prepare your baked goods either by souring or sprouting but you don't need to do both.

Could you please share a recipe for sprouted legume bread? ( compared to Natural Grocers Organic loaf by Vitamin Cottage). How do you sprout millet,barley,,garbanzo beans,spelt, lentils? Will the cost be less or more for homemade?
I was wondering what happens if you soak the wheat berries to long. This was my first time sprouting wheat and I ended up soaking the berries for 3 days - when I discovered error on my part i have continued with rinsing and returning to covered bowl twice a day. Do I need to start over due to oversoaking? I am starting on day 5 and am starting to see small tails. So just wondering what to do.
So just wondering what I should do at this point.
I have well water wht do u recommend? Only spring water
drmseeker - Thanks for visiting! Well water is great. You just want to avoid chlorinated water. How are you enjoying the videos? Do you find them helpful. Love, Mary❤️😘❤️
Do you leave the water in the bottom of.the bowl that has drained off the sprays of water on day 2 through 5?
THE FARMER WAY to tell if wheat is dry is to bite a few kernels with your teeth. If it crunches, it's dry. If it is still wet, it will be soft. You will be surprised how fast you can learn to tell the difference. (From someone who has chewed a LOT of wheat) They also make "moisture testers," but they can be a bit pricey for minimal use.
What other seed would work well with this method for making sprouts? Uses of other sprouts? Beans?
Hi Mary! I too live in Central TX. I wanted to ask you if you purchased the wheat berries from HEB (my favorite grocery store)

I have been sprouting wheat and beans for sprouts for years. These are only germinated. You have created what is known as malted wheat. The "sprouts" have not yet appeared. Sprouts are actually a vegetable. Nothing wrong, still very healthy.
Thank you so much for the clarification. I think of this as soaking and "sprouting" - as in sprouting just enough to make spouted flour. If you let the grains sprout too much - the flour does not come out very good for baking. Thanks so much for sharing your info! I'm glad you're here!! Love, Mary
Is there any chance this would be more diabetic friendly? We have not been eating bread to cut down on carbs. Any advice is most appreciated. Thank you.
bffbecky - Hi Becky, That is a wonderful question!! I am not a doctor or a nutritionist so I can not say for sure. However, I have read that Sprouted Grains, Breads made from Sprouted Grains, and Sourdough Breads may have less impact on blood sugar. But definitely check with your doc or diabetes nutritionist to find out if these would be allowable foods for your health condition. Hope this helps! I am so happy that you are here because i am a firm believer that eating a diet of properly prepared traditional “nutrient dense” foods is better for our overall health than the Standard American Diet (“SAD”). Please let me know if you have any other questions. I am so happy to help and SO HAPPY to “meet” other folks who are interested in learning about traditional foods. Love, Mary❤️😘❤️
This website might be of great help to you, cheers - www.diabetesundone.com/
I am diabetic and I believe this method reduces the glycimic index and glycimic load. Would be interested to know.
I don't have grind flour machin? and my oven gaze it's no problem long time??
I have a dehydrator right in my oven……….how long do I dehydrate them for?
How good is sprouted flour as breading on fried fish, pork, or chicken?
Thank you for this awesome video! I will be watching your whole playlist. I wondered....is there a way to make a sprouted bread right away while the sprouts are still wet?? Like, omitting the dehydrating and just mixing somehow right away? Just curious.
Ezekiel bread?
