• This is a great question! Unfortunately, I have to say… it was something I made. It was a dehydrated bread. I can’t remember what it was… but I thew it out. And, I’m with Tiger Lily on the raw olives. I love greek olives, but whatever I had was not …

• Not raw? Hmmmm. Yes sprouting is germinating… but, I think germinating is just soaking in the water with out sprouting a tail… and of course, sprouting starts with germinating in water, then sprouting a tail, rinsing with water.

• Yes, oat groats are raw! Very raw! I used to germinate them for about a day or two and make oatmeal out of them. My husband’s favorite. But, I stopped germinating oats a long while back.

• Absolutely! You don’t even need to be precise in the time. 30 hours, 36 hours, 40 hours, what’s the difference really? If you use parchment paper and spread the onion bread thin, it will take ~24 hours… even 12 hours can be good enough (if the bread…
