What grains do you have iin your kitchen? Inquiring minds, accompanied by the idly curious, want to know.

 

[buckytom]

whole grains, or flours? i have whole oats, barley, kascha (buckwheat), and flax, as well as regular ap flour and whole wheat flour.

 

[subfuscpersona]

hi buckytom - no rice?

This is not a safe question to ask a homebrewer!!

We brewers have a bad habit of looking at a pantry and thinking, hmm, what can I ferment out of that?

Needless to say, there's various barley, flaked maize, rice, and wheat, although it's technically not IN the kitchen.

I have AP flour, self-rising flour, whole wheat bread flour, long-grain white rice, whole oats, about 1/2Tbsp of flax seeds(don't know what to do with them), & a packet of Shizen Green powcered barley drink mix(don't know if that one counts). I probably have more but I don't feel like going to look.

crewsk, the next time someone in your family gets "backed up", put a tbsp of flax seeds in some yogurt. good for the corn chute...

 

[crewsk]

I'll remember that! Thanks. Do I need to grind them up or anything since they are whole?

 

[buckytom]

i eat them whole. you can tell the kids they're fleas or some kind of bug, and that you readh ere that they're really healthy for you...

 

[crewsk]

Yeah telling them they are healthy will never get them to eat them!

 

[subfuscpersona]

now that I've checked the cupboards, here's my list

rice [converted white / basmati / short-grain brown / sweet brown]
wheat [hard red / soft]
corn [regular / popcorn]
oat groats
buckwheat groats
millet
barley
kamut
triticale

oh yeah - a little flax seed that I'm trying to figure out how to use - it was an impulse buy (is flax a grain?)
