Re: Hemp flour? Try Spelt

I'm now baking with spelt flour after tasting a neighbor's healthy zucchini

bread made with spelt. Spelt is fairly expensive when found in the package

at fresh fields, but then I found it loose in a bin where you put as much as

you want into a baggie. Was much cheaper that way and bakes beautifully.

Spelt and Rye and the occasional whole wheat is what I use now. But

Hemp flour seems to be much much higher in EFAs, Protein and Fiber!

Definitely more Cron-like from my perspective (especially for low

carbers).

BTW, apparently you can mix hemp flour with a lot of water and some

sweetening (cinnamon and stevia) to make hemp milk. For a cup you get

40 calories (less then half of skim milk by comparison) with fiber,

protein and essential fatty acids. Seems perfect...
