I'm so glad you posted this! Somebody was just talking about these rolls the other day, but they didn't know what they were made of or anything. Now I can try them next year! Thanks, Aby.

Thanks Julianne!
Yes, he passed. However, the peace that has come surpasses all pain. It's being quite the ride.

She is adorable! And what a good eater there, chomping on her broccoli.

Did your dad pass away? If so, I'm sorry...

I never love my kids more than when they're peacefully sleeping. Good for you for getting stuff done when you can't sleep, too; I usually just toss and turn and get jealous of the sleeping husband next to me. I hope things get better and that you can start getting some sleep.

I am really coming to love quinoa, too, but your recipe looks yummy so I'll have to try it!

Melanie! Yes you can grind quinoa with this mix. I am about to post a recipe for "Quinoa Porridge" that it's great to consume quinoa alone.

Dana! If you can't find triticale, it will still work. You might want to substitute the amounts for spelt and triticale with more of the other grains. Just keep in mind that you might want to keep gluten grains in balance so that your dough binds well.
Having said that, I would probably be careful to not substitute with wheat alone, for it will make your baked goods way harder. Let us know how it works for you. Best wishes!

I can't find triticale anywhere. I am going to order from azure standard but they don't have it either. If i left out triticale and spelt do you think it would still be good? You have got me so pumped.

2010-03-31T08:28:08.750-07:00

Yes of course!! Rapadura is sugar in its rawest form. No processing of any kind whatsoever. You can find it at any health food store. I buy it ib bulk from Azure Standard to save money on it. It has a distinct delicious smell to it.

Aby, Can you tell us what rapadura is? Where do y...

Aby, Can you tell us what rapadura is? Where do you buy it? I have never heard of it.

That combination flour looks amazing! I'm marking for future note. I just barely bought quinoa for the first time after my sister's recommendation - I had no idea I could grind it in my wheat grinder!

i would like to thank aaron and his wonderful wife for sharing their grain recipe. even though i did not have all the grains the short bread i made came out great. the grains that i did not have was the triticale and the oats growth. the wolfgang grinder was great also. i give it a five. thanks again and God bless you and the family, and a blessed new year

Jeannie! we get our grains in bulk from "Azure Standard", it's a company based in Oregon and they sell online and deliver to a drop point in Boise twice a month. They have a very LARGE selection of everything and awesome prices. I am glad you want to try this, it's really yummy!

Thank you Atzimba, I have been struggling with "heavy" baking items, even when I only use 1/2 wheat and 1/2 white flour. I am very excited to try this! Where do you buy your grains at?

That shot of her at the table is hilarious! And at least you're still trying. It feels easier sometimes just to give up on table manners, doesn't it? I always have to remind myself that this is just a phase and it will pass...
