Hello everyone. I have just read the book and I have been fermenting everything and I love it.
My question is about grains. When is it OK to let them ferment and skip the cooking process? I am asking because cooking kills many of the good bacteria that forms in the fermentation process.
I fermented quinoa for 4 days with raw apple cider vinegar and ate it raw. I didn't get sick or anything like that but I noticed in my bowl movements that it did not digest well.
I've also fermented amaranth (SO DELICIOUS) and rice but I cooked them afterward. What about steel cut or rolled oats? Can they be fermented long enough to skip cooking? And I was also wondering about bulgar wheat. I read a post in this forum that someone is fermenting bulgar wheat to make a cheese. If it fermented long enough, could you just throw it in a vitamix and have a cheesy sauce?
