Welcome To My Kitchen - Making Spelt Milk Pt.1

oh my looks at those cheeks she is so cute!

How do i make spelt milk from spelt flour? Whats the units? Do i boil it or blend it or what? Thank you for your great videos you have a wonderful family.

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.

wait...

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

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

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

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).

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).

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.

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

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!
