Okay, I’m on a quest to make Ezekiel bread, much like Trader Joe’s sesame version. It is delicious and has a taste of its own. Many of the grains and beans are sprouted which give the bread much more nutrition than unsprouted version.
The Bible gave a generic recipe in Ezekiel 4:9 (the name of the bread in stores):
“Then take wheat, barley, beans, lentils, millet, and winter wheat. Put them in a container, and use them to make bread for yourself. Eat it during the 390 days that you are lying on your side.”
Unfortunately, there are no measurements. ..and the versions I have seen call for yeast, salt, and a few other ingredients.
The ingredients are:
- Sprouted wheat
- Water
- Sprouted barley
- Sprouted millet
- Malted barley
- Sprouted lentils
- Sprouted soybeans
- Sprouted spelt
- Fresh yeast
- Wheat gluten
- Sea salt
- Sesame seeds
We started sprouting the soybeans as they will take 5 days or so. Lentils 4 days and the rest 3 days. I’ll detail the sprouting and baking soon.
