That’s good advice for everyone!Winnie has tested and shares more than 200 great recipes for breads, rolls, sweet breads, meatless dishes, crepes, pancakes, waffles, pasta, cakes, cookies, desserts as well as meats and meatless dishes. All you have to do is follow the easy instructions in this book and you will have tasty nutritious food and save a bundle on your grocery bill.In Winnie’s household multigrain is a household word. Several years ago, she began experimenting with wheat, oats, barley, rye and flax. The more she used these grains the more she began to appreciate the nutritional benefits of each grain and how combining them meets the body’s nutritional needs. She soon expanded her experimentation to combining grains with pulses. This combination makes it possible to get complete protein without eating meat. She has developed and tested recipes that make it possible for you to serve tasty and nutritious food at less cost. Many of the recipes in Eat More Whole Grains are ideal for vegetarians and people who have allergies. Some of the recipes call for whole kernels; others call for crushed and rolled grains. But when it comes to baking with yeast you may want to take Winnie’s advice and buy a grain mill so you can mill your own flour. Winnie’s flourmill is compact, quiet and mills eight cups of wheat in only a few minutes. She makes 75 loaves of bread from a bushel of wheat and every cup of flour is filled with most of the vitamins, minerals and fibre that the small kernel of wheat has to offer. Milling the flour fresh produces the best flour with the greatest amount of nutrients. Owning a mill allows this.
If you like variety you can mill oats, rice, barley, millet, buckwheat, popcorn, triticale, sorghum, lentils, soybeans, rye, dried mung beans, dried field corn, chick peas and split peas. Then get ready to use these wholesome ingredients to fill your house with the old-fashioned aroma of the early pioneers. If you think you can’t bake with yeast then . . . This is the book for you!The recipes in the book use a variety of grains and pulses but Winnie’s personal favorites are the recipes using flax and soybeans. If you follow her instructions, you will have all the proof that you need to show that these tiny and inexpensive seeds can be used to make nutritional and tasty food. Each recipe is written with instructions on mixing the dough by hand, but then under that are the instructions for using a BOSCH or other dough-mixing machine. Owning a Bosch allows Winnie to bake six loaves of bread in less than two hours. On the farm she is often out working until dark. It’s very easy to start grinding the wheat at nine-thirty in the evening and have bread ready to enjoy at eleven o’clock. A slogan she has adopted is, “From kernels of wheat to six baked loaves of bread in less than two hours.”
