Country Wheat Loaf

$ 10.00

• Just 3 Ingredients!
• NO FLOUR.
• Worried About Gluten?
• Testimonials

• We make this bread with just three ingredients; Sprouted wheat (wheat and water), water and a dash of sea salt.
     
• 

   We do NOT add flour (not one speck), nor vital wheat gluten (check the ingredient label on other sprouted grain breads including; Trader Joes, Killer Daves, Angel Bakehouse, Whole Foods, Alverado Street and Ezekial) nor do we add commercially derived yeast (again, check the labels) nor any of the other additives or "dough enhancers" found in nearly all other breads, sprouted or not. To our knowledge, this is the only sprouted whole grain bread on the market today made from 100% sprouted whole grains that has been naturally leavened resulting in a bread as digestible as it is amazingly delicious.

• Worried about gluten?

  Our breads were tested (laboratory results available upon request) and the gluten count came in at 81 parts per million. The threshold for "gluten free" is 20 parts per million. On average, wheat based products run between 10,000 and 70,000 parts per million.

  In other words, our process of both sprouting the grain and introducing a ferment alters the formation of gluten.

  Does it negate gluten completely? No. Absolutely not and if you're celiac, you need to exercise caution when sampling our breads.

  However, if you have ever wanted to go back to a natural, wheat based bread that, this is your first, best choice. And besides, it tastes great. Our bread has the full flavor that bread use to have back in the days when all breads were made using these natural, time tested methods of either preparing grain through sprouting or using natural ferments, or, as in our case, both. It makes a difference. Trying is believing.

  "...your bread was amazing as ever. I think this batch was probably as close to a baker's masterpiece of sprouted natural wheat bread. ...your bread is a work of art...truly in a class of its own. I am so grateful to you for creating this unique bread. When I had gone without your bread for about a month, I just wanted it more than anything else.

  Thank you from a serious Columbia County Bread lover"

"Country Wheat" is our signature bread and is unlike any bread found anywhere else on the market.

"Everything" seed topping includes flax, poppy, sesame, pumpkin, and sunflower seeds.

'Pan Loaf' is a style (shape) similar to what is most commonly seen at supermarkets, whereas our 'Artisan' loaves are hand shaped by our skilled bakers. Actually, both pan and artisan and hand shaped. The only actual difference is that the pan loaves are baked in a pan.

Garlic Pepper - We create a perfect blend of diced roasted California garlic with freshly cracked peppercorn then roll into the dough and sprinkle the crust. This loaf of bread is savory, potent and not easy to put down.

Salted Pretzel - This is our newest specialty loaf, prior to baking, we mist this loaf with the same baking soda concentrate we use with our pretzel crisps flat bread to give this unique bread a deep, dark Bavarian crust then top with pretzel salt. The flavor permeates nicely thru the entire loaf. Great sliced with soft and hard cheeses, mushrooms and other toppings.

A word about slicing options.

Super Thin... Very low carb - ideal as a small sandwich bread.  NOT recommended for toasting.

Thin... Low carb. Use for a sandwhich bread. Not recommended for toasting.

Standard.... Makes an excellent toasting bread.  

24 oz before baking. Handmade; size and slices may vary. Props pictured not included.

WHAT'S NEW? We recently switched making our bread and pita with Glenn - a variety of wheat very popular with smaller, organic farms and offering a slightly higher protein profile than most organic wheats. Final point, we love the way Glenn tastes. 

Pocket Pita

$ 10.00

We take our three ingredient dough - sprouted organic wheat, filtered water and a small amount of sea salt - we take that naturally leavened dough and hand shape into round patties then bake. These patties pocket in two to three minutes and they are done. They are gorgeous, durable (stuffable), and, if you cut them around the seam, they make a great bun.

We size them a little smaller than most standard pita because we love to toast them. In the toaster, they pocket all over again and get steaming hot on the inside.

The process is labor intensive, hand cut, shaped and rolled into these perfect patties.

Check out this product review from nearly three years ago. Same great products but completely re-imagined packaging.

Each pita is approximately 3 ounces.

We offer six pita per package.

We strongly recommend freezing your pocket pita.

Sprouted Organic Bronze Chief Wheat - 4lbs

$ 12.00

Shipping to all fifty states

We love Wheat Montana's Organic Bronze Chief - we recommend and have been sprouting it for ten years for many of our sprouted, whole-grain breads, pita and muffins. This is a clean wheat that sprouts readily. Sprouting guarantees that the wheat you are buying has never been sprayed with "glyphosate". After all, wheat sprayed with glyphosate kills the grain so that it can never germinate.  

We prepare Bronze Chief organic wheat for digestion by soaking then "sprouting" the whole grain. Sprouting converts the wheat from a grain to something much more like a vegetable - wheat grass. Sprouting also works to neutralize "phytic acids" or "anti-nutrients" found in all grains, nuts, seeds and most vegetables. And, sprouting unleashes all the nutrients the grain needs to come to life - nutrients your body can use for more energy and better health.

Experience the truly nutritious and delicious quality sprouted grain brings to your next baking project. 

Sprouted Organic Bronze Chief comes in 4 lb bags. These bags are heavy duty and lined with foil. Shipping is extra.

PLEASE NOTE: If you order this product, you will be buying a four pound bag of sprouted, whole-grain wheat. This is ideal for grinding into a sprouted flour to make your own breads, muffins or pizza crusts, etc. If you don't have a mill, please let us know and we would be happy to mill your sprouted wheat at no charge.

SECOND NOTE: If you are a home baker making sprouted grain breads, and, you would like to try our sprouted starter rather than yeast, simply ask and we will provide a baggie of dehydrated starter.
