Making SPELT MILK

[2arien]

your family is wonderful! thank you for this tutorial!

[butterflie2484]

I started drinking coconut milk until I get the money for the other kinds of milk that are healthier..

[hebrewbaby]

@butterflie2484 nice :-)

[butterflie2484]

Thank you for these videos! You make me want to run to the store to buy some spelt and other grains! Just to start feeding my child this milk! :)

[hebrewbaby]

@butterflie2484 Lol, I hear you! You're welcome :-)

[strawalker]

Great video I can't wait to try this. You have a lovely family.

[hebrewbaby]

@strawalker Thanks...definitely give it a try!

[ABADYHWH]

another question from my isha:

Where did you bought your blender? and what brand it is?

todah rabah mishpacha.

[hebrewbaby]

@ABADYHWH Blendtec...online store....many carry it...just google.

[vipercat23]

thank you! :)

how can i avoid the sour taste?

i try to fit this for coffee

[hebrewbaby]

@vipercat23 Hmm, I'm unsure about a sour taste. Ours never soured...only if we kept it too long. Almond milk will probably work better as a creamer for coffee though.

[Naahnikki]

where can i get blender like yours what is it call,price range thanks

[hebrewbaby]

@Naahnikki It's a Blendtec...we paid about $400 for ours. We bought it from a Raw food website...but you can google around and search for Blendtecs sold at raw food sites...some offer different slightly different prices. This was a while ago, so I don't remember the exact name of the site.

[Nasjen]

after you squeeze all of the milk out of the sack, can you use what's left in the sack for something else?

[hebrewbaby]

@Nasjen Yes, some have made cheese with it...although I've never tried cheese making with spelt pulp. We simply season it and toss it over a salad or over a hot quinoa and veggie meal. There are a few things you can do with it. :-)

[porkyo123]

@Nasjen Does anyone know if spelt has gluten?

[hebrewbaby]

@porkyo123 Yes.

[januaryfriend8]

@porkyo123 yes, she it has gluten in it

[tegg23]

thanks

for info you have a lovely family

[faynadia]

I love you I think you're wonderful!

[Soulblackman]

Being that you're using a Blend Tec, is it necessary to strain it after blending?

[hebrewbaby]

@Soulblackman Yes, I strain the beverage as shown in the vid. after I blended it.

[pivotous]

oishii~!

[Modacolorist]

oh my looks at those cheeks she is so cute!

[hebrewbaby]

Thanks!

You cannot use spelt flour for milk. It contains gluten which is a necessity for baking. You can only use the fresh spelt berries to make the milk/beverage.

[chelle099]

wait...

did you use plain ol' TAP water for this receipe?

I think I will use filtered water from my Berkey Water Filter instead..

[hebrewbaby]

No...I used our water filtration system on the side of the sink.

[omoshiroii]

Hello there~I thank you so much for your share of these wonderful thoughts and inspirations.

Can i use quinoa the same way as this spelt to make milk? I mean just soak it till soft then blend, (instead of boiling the quinoa).

[hebrewbaby]

I'm really unfamiliar with making it this way. Originally when I researched the grain and looked on google...everything pertaining to making it into milk recommemded cooking it first. I believe this is how it was done historically as well.

I don't know if this may have to do with the saponins that are on the grain/seed, that is very bitter (and can make you vomit if not cleansed correctly).

[hebrewbaby]

I actually tried it one time when I first began making it, and my daughter vomited the whole day. So I didn't bother with doing it that way again.

[omoshiroii]

Ah thank you. I guess i will give it a try..most probably it doesnt really taste nice uncooked. :D

[TRU2myHEART]

Peace! This is such a wonderful recipe. I was not able to find any nut milk bags anywhere so i just made my own using cheese cloth. I used the remaining hull to make porridge by adding cinnamon, nutmeg raisons and brown sugar. My kids like it better tham cream of wheat. ;0) I was wondering if you know any other uses for this because now it will be a staple in out diet. Thank you so much!!

[hebrewbaby]

Thank you! We purchase our nutmilk bags online. I'll post the link on the side bar...I must have forgotten because someone else had inquired about that as well. But yes, cheese cloth will do just perfectly.

That's a great idea...hadn't thought of using the hull to make porridge! You can search online for recipes utilizing spelt. We just use it in our stir fries. We don't use it alone, but we use it to toss along with quinoa and/or wild rice and veggies. That's about it!

Peace!

[malcahbatYah]

You continue to be a inspiration to me...you ARE a virtuous woman and a blessing to your mishapacha!

[hebrewbaby]

In response to TheMeekShallInherit: con't... ...so can you imagine consuming this?!! This is also where we get all the mucus production from. As for "blacks", studies have shown that all those with "african" ancestry for whatever reason do not possess the ability to breakdown the sugar lactose (lactase is needed for that). If lactose enters the intestines intact, then the intestinal bacteria do the job of breaking it down...hence all the gas, bloating, etc...

[TheMeekShallInherit]

Yes, I have also read an article about that. I haven't notices any symptoms after drinking milk. It may be because I drink the 1% milk, if that makes any difference. I absolutely love the wholistic way of life, but I am still in the beginning stages of transitioning to a better way to be healthy. Your videos really inspire me to keep it up. Are you a nutritionalist, or just a resourceful genius...LOL...(real question)

[hebrewbaby]

I don't know that the 1% makes a difference except for the fat intake. For now your immune system is just better able to handle the onslaught of what's contained within the milk. I'm definitely NO nutritionalist...lol...the info. I've acquired through the years has only been in attempts to alleviate the ailments experienced within my home. That's really been important to me...and much of the information has led us to living as "unAmerican" in every way as possible. It's just healthier!

[TheMeekShallInherit]

Well I appreciate the information that you share with us. As I said before, it motivates me to continue in my endeavors to a healthy way of living. Looking forward to more ideas! *smile*

[TheMeekShallInherit]

Remarkable information. Most of us are lactose intolerant. I wonder why that is? Is the spelt sold at health food markets?

[hebrewbaby]

Todah! Yes, spelt should be sold at most health food stores. As for milk and intolerance...the whole campaign for ingesting milk as something healthy and beneficial is another big lie. I believe about 80% of cows milk is the protein "casein" and is a foreign invader. The body then produces antibodies (histamine)...and then many a folk run for drug medication as a solution. The same casein is also a very powerful binder and is used in furniture as well as other products to hold them together

[MoniqueHebrIsraelite]

This is wonderful Akhoti. ...

[Ejahi]

For a person who has suffered from exema before I can say anything that contains gluten will flare exema. But I dont know if spelt will have the same effect as wheat gluten considering the fact that she sprouted the spelt in this video. When you soak the spelt you activate the enzymes and it becomes a living food. Living foods tend to be good for digestion. I suggest give it a try and see what happens. Its a better alternative than soy or cows milk.

[hebrewbaby]

Thanks for sharing about the gluten...I didn't know about it flaring up excema.

[Cherry1026]

I am going to try this as soon as I get some spelt. Quick question for you Is this a positive or negative source for excema . My baby girl is suffering from it and I am at my end. Congrats on the new blessing, we look like we are neck and neck. LOL!

[hebrewbaby]

I'd have to agree with Ejahi below...and I'd suggest you look into other sources that may be causing her excema and really get to the root of the issue. It took years on that road of searching for the root of our sons asthma and allergy situation. Vaccinations, acid rich foods, detergents and cleansers you may use on her clothing...all these can directly affect and even cause the problem.
