Warmly,
❤Donna❤ - Krátké a kreslené filmy
I have been making rejuvelac for many years. Long before I started making kombucha and both water and milk kefir. I will have to try it with ginger. 🇨🇦😎
Love this Paul you are a pioneer!
I am making my a first Rejuvelac. Thank you for your encouragement. This is a Great video everybody in the World. I am planning on making vegan cheese. I am soooo excited. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart.
I listen to your podcast all the time!! Thank you so much for all your passion and really valuable information ❤ been drinking Kefir for a week now and I love it!
Aww thank you so much Tara!!! So glad you love Kefir!
I cant wait to try this
Donna,
I think I'm going to try this! I'm having lots of digestive issues at the moment, so much so, I'm not excited about any food right now! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks! just ordered me 5 lbs of organic einkorn berries. Can't wait to make some Rejuvelac!!!
How long does the drink last in the fridge?
Love it, Dear Donna, Please make a video on beet kvass and its benefits.
Great podcast. I've heard about this....will def try it. Right now I have my homemade kombucha and kefir growing and fermenting!!
Thank you woman for important information I made kefir and kumbucha 😇🤗😇🤗👍👌🤜🤛👏🖒
Thanks for this. I'm going to try it with my new Einkorn berries. Can the fermented wheatberries be cooked and eaten afterwards?
Hi thanks very much for this wonderful podcast! I love the sound of your voice! Can I leave the jar vertically upright, or do I need to lay the jar on it’s side or on an angle, on day 2 and 3?
Vertically is best! No need to lay it down. :)
Donna Schwenk thanks!
Donna, what can you do with the berries after you make the rejuvelac?
Can i use rejuvelac to ferment other starches like cooked potatoes?
Hi, I was on laxatives for years and now I’m trying to cut them cold turkey. Do you have any ideas on which fermented foods to eat for this?
What do I do with the sprouted berries after making the drink? Can I eat them?
Love love love your videos & audio imformation!!! Can't wait to try asap!!! Can i ferment flax seeds same way? Its all i have on hand rt now? Oops also I have Chia seeds. Can i do same for these?
I haven't made this recipe using flax seeds so i can't say for sure. Seeds are different then grains. The chia and flax get thick when soaked so i dont think it work the same. But I do believe you can use quinoa.
I made up some rejuvelac about six months back that stunk BADLY, and it caused extreme mold to grow all over the walls. What can I do next time to avoid these types of problems?
Will rejuvelac create lots of ethanol if it is let to ferment over a week. Im guessing it would be like 0.3 percent ethanol ?
Really interesting I know thievmay not be directly related, but based on the research, I have been monkeying around with chlorella powder, no for any other teasons but due to its research based nutritional and heavymetal and toxin detoxification properties
Hi Donna, I was listening to your Podcast dealing with Rejuvelac. I have listened & watched your programs on many different fermenting classes. Really have enjoyed them. And I had so much fun doing kombucha, kefir, sour dough breads as well as vegetable fermenting. So thanks so much. But I do have a question. When making the rejuvelac can I use oat groats instead of wheat berries? Oat groats are soft grain & I was thinking it may work. What do you think? Thanks again
Hi Rebecca! Thank you so much for your kind words! You can try to make it with oat groats, but I never have and a lot of grains dissolve and turn to mush when attempting to make rejuvelac so they don't work as well as the wheat berries.
@@CulturedFoodLife Thanks Donna, I did try the oat groats & they did not work at all, like you thought. They just would not sprout & the end result was they began to smell really bad. It just happen to be the the only grains I had at the time & now I know. So, I will get wheat berries & I can't wait to try them. Thanks for all you help & good advice.
You are most welcome Rebecca. Happy Fermenting!
I searched Donna’s website and dont see the recipe for Rejuvelac?
I wish I had know all these statistics when I was making rejuvelac years ago. We knew nothing about probiotics and all we knew this was good for you, Big deal, so are carrots, spinach, and many others. We were only thinking vitamins. So many of us quit making because of only part knowledge. Now I'm back on the band wagon, but for other reasons. Thanks so much for your teaching. It has helped. My friend sent me some water kefir grains so my first batch is only about 4 hours from being done.
You are most welcome Yvonne! It's nice to see them circling back around and in a big way!
Truth!!!
Can you go ahead and sprout the wheat grass and grow it for juicing, once you use it for making Rejuvelac?
Hi! We don't use wheat grass for rejuvelac. We use wheat berries which are the wheat grain that is usually turned into flour. In the podcast I mentioned a woman who owned a wheat grass bar but she found more health benefits from rejuvelac than she did her wheat grass shots. But you use wheat berries not wheat grass to make rejuvelac: www.culturedfoodlife.com/can-rejuvelac-help-with-alcoholism/
@@CulturedFoodLife Ok! Thank you. =]
So alcoholism is related to nutritional lack? And rejuvalac helps with that?
You mentioned Einkorn being better than regular wheat. Can I use the Einkorn just like wheat berries in the same ratio?
OK. I am a member who forgot to download July's eBook. I got the recipe.
Glad you got it Katie!
Hmm, apparently you DON’T have this free recipe on your website.
How often and when do you drink Rejuvelac?
Hi! You can drink it anytime. I don't drink this very often (I mostly drink kombucha). But it can be helpful for healing. I always suggest starting slow with 1/4 cup or so and working up to around a cup. I'm not a doctors (so just keep this in mind) But this is what I've personally done in the past.
Is it safe for kids? Thanks for your time is there any concern and using this at all for anyone?
Hi Sean! I have a whole article on kids and babies and cultured foods: www.culturedfoodlife.com/should-babies-and-children-have-cultured-foods/
@@CulturedFoodLife I just read this, it was so inspiring. New sub. I had some challenges with my son's gut flora as well and I am taking the necessary steps to balance it.
@@1432amer I'm so glad you are inspired! be sure and visit my website as well for more information on healing the gut
@@CulturedFoodLife 100%
Some sights said only to drink on an empty stomach, and not to drink if you have leaky gut, which most overweight people have and don't even know it. What is your opinion on this?
I never did this and it still helped me greatly. My daughter had leaky gut and it helped her greatly along with the other cultured foods.
@@CulturedFoodLife Awesome!!!! ;-) Thanks Donna for answering my questions. I need to try this, along with ashwaganda and the moringa that I just received.
GOD BLESS YOU FOR ALL THE HELP
Remember when you used to be in the kitchen sharing like as if we were guests.
These videos are just podcasts that I am sharing via CZcams as well as on my website.. The kitchen videos were filmed with a professional crew to get everyone started making cultured foods.. I still film hands on recipes but the old style videos are quite a production and take weeks to make , edit and record.. Hope to do more in the future but for now podcasts and recipe videos are what I can do easily and quickly :)
I do alot of fermenting
I tried this 2x and it was a Flop.
Not only did I waste a ton of filtered water I wasted my precious time too.
Booo on rejuvalac
While you may have good information on your broadcast, to stare at a jar and lemons, is extremely difficult. Furthermore, all of your side stories are extremely hard to listen to. I will not be coming back. Sorry
While you have good information on your broadcasts, it is very difficult to just listen to all of your stories. People are here for recipes, not your stories.
Yes we are all here for the recipes , however in order for us to appreciate the recipes and what the benefits are the stories add credibility to them. Who wants a recipe that does nothing good for you. Not me , I love the stories so that I can decide whether the recipe is worth making. “Your life struggles have helped other people “.Keep up the good work Sis. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼❤️💕
I love the stories!
I love the stories. Don’t speak for others. You have an opinion...keep it to yourself and move along
I’m here for the stories. Thank you for the stories
Donna's "Been there and this helped tremendously" testimonials gives us hope in the same situations!!
I personally love the stories. They add way more to the recipes and directions for our benefit!!
Fred, you're probably a busy guy, I get it!! I hope in the end you have a personal testimony to help someone else in the same boat you had been in!!
