rye bread recipe wanted

[carolg]

Tasted the most incredible raw rye bread recently. This woman is now selling her slices: $1.50 each. Ingredients below. Want the challenge to post a recipe for same or similar that would be awesome. I am hoping for something with few nuts or even none and I just saw she used sunflower. So for me that could mean lots of added calories this weekend. I'm aiming low calorie bread?

Here's the ingredients for you to play with:
5 ingredients - sunflower seeds, flax seeds,
agave nectar, Celtic salt, Caraway seeds).

I'm wondering what could take the place of sunflower seeds??????

She sliced it super thin and looked great for a sandwich.

No further information or contact to gain further knowledge here. Thanks.

Why not just make a basic Essene bread recipe than just use sprouted rye?

Super easy and no nuts. You can make it really thin too like flat bread. If you add flax that will make it more chewy (if that is what you want). If you don't want it chewy don't add any flax. You could use sesame seeds instead of the sunflower if you want but I don't think you need any seeds or nuts if you don't want any.

4c sprouted rye
1/2 c to 1c minced veges
2 T seasoning(caraway seed)
agave nectar for sweetness if desired
salt to taste

sp[rinkle caraway on top to before dehydrating.

Here is juliano's pumpernickel rye essene bread. By the way there's no need to watch/count calories on raw.

2 cups sprouted rye
1 1/2 T garlic
1/4 C olive oil
1/3 C carob powder
1 T caraway seeds
1 1/2 t Celtic salt

Combine in food processor and puree. Form into a bread 1 1/2 inches (I nromally make it more like 3/4-1 inch) tall and dehydrate for 13 to 17 hours.

This bread is really really good.

Also, you can use Alissa's rye bagel recipe and spread onto a Teflex sheet...

Love all your ideas. Thanks for sharing the bread ideas. Wow, I am impressed with your "sharing." Again, thanks.

Are flax seeds fattening??????

You don't need to worry about calories/fattening foods on raw, not much if anything that's raw is fattening. This is my 3rd year raw, I tried to eat as much fattening foods as possible to get my weight back and no matter how much "fattening" foods I ate I stayed nearly invisible at 135 lbs. In my 3 years raw, I have found only one thing that can cause weight gain on raw, and the weight this makes you gain is muscle, and that's by working out lifting heavy weights. Nothing else I have tried made me gained weight, including eating tons of nuts/nut butter, etc.

I really don't think it's possible to gain weight in the form of fat on raw food, this diet only allows muscle mass to be gained and that's only if you workout with heavy weights.

By the way I'm surprised you're concerned with this having over 1500 posts...

Well, yeah, all seeds have fat in them, more fat per gram than, say, spinach or an apple, but I would not be concerned with that when you're raw.

raweater: I know this is a silly question but does this bread taste very carob-y?? I'm not a big fan of carob and this recipe calls for quite a bit of it. Could I leave it out or is it a really important ingredient?? I assume it's used to make the bread a brown color to resemble pumpernickle but is it necessary?

Raweater,
I too lift weights and that is what keeps my body design nice.

Regardless of the number of posts I show, I have overeaten on nuts and know others who have too with us putting on pounds. Pates to me, lasagna and the such surely do help "attribute" weight to my body as I can't stop at a little. Perhaps its about metabolism.

I see I have not been as lucky as you describe being able to eat as much as you want raw and never gaining weight. So it's still a legitimate concern to me with nuts being a factor in my weight gain. Now iwth weight training it sure helps me keep my appearance more slender than without it. Thanks for sharing.

It doesn't taste much like carbo at all, especially with the garlic and other spices. I don't like carob but I still like this bread and other recipes that use carob. I don't think you'll taste the carob, I'd try doing it with the carob, or maybe put half if you want, but even the original recipe doesn't taste much like carob at all.

Okay, thanks! I assume the recipe must be good otherwise you probably wouldn't bother to make it, as I've read that you have to use your time wisely when it comes to preparing your food. :)

I see you're gaining weight on raw. Great job!
