In before the "vegan hate". We're big advocates of that fact that we eat vegan food all the time and don't even realize it! Vegetables, salads, plants and nuts are all vegan, so remember if you're a true food connoisseur - don't judge a meal by its title alone! We could've omitted the words "raw" and "vegan" entirely and no one might have known! :)

I think you mean vegetarian as vegan is nearly impossible. A true vegan will not only shun meat but anything created using any animal product or byproduct. Nearly everything made has some sort of animal byproduct in it or used to make it. Even if it doesn't there was likely manure used to grow your vegetables and that was taken from an animal.

You know, you were closer to a Lembas Bread the first time around if you left out the bacon. Replace the maple syrup with honey. Then reduce the water and increase the honey, better taste. Also make the base corn flour and you'd be closer to the books. I'd use a protein powder to increase the heft, it comes in vegan varieties. Oh, and grind any seeds used to create a smoother texture. You can also use a better seed combo. Come on guys try one more time. You can do better. Third time's the charm.

+lucielm I would like to point out something - I once did a bit of looking into the meaning of the word "corn" after I first read the details about lembas production, and it struck me that Tolkien was using an older meaning of the word than modern times does. In modern times the word has become associated with maize, the American vegetable, but the term "corn" was once a general synonym for "grain" or "seed". For instance, "peppercorn", or "corned beef", where it refers to the salt used to cure the meat. So the "corn" used to make lembas is never defined in Tolkien's writing and therefore be anything. I did find a recipe once that basically made a kind of shortbread, which I think is true to the books as I faintly recall the books saying that it tasted sweet.

@lucielm

8 жыл бұрын

Mimi Sardinia That makes sense and we're missing a huge componant in that we don't know what the "corn" means. I assumed it's something like maize which would give it that sweet flavor and if ground really fine it could be molded like a corn tortillia. Those last a good while irl if prepared right.

+LordVulpix you're thinking of Indian corn. Tolkien said Elvin corn and never says what Elvin corn is like.

This is Cram, also from LoTR, the laketown equivalent, if it was real lembas, it would taste of honey, as Tolkien said it did.

now this is elf bread. last time you guys made dwarf bread, which actually sounds much tastier. the one with bacon should probably have a different name since it technically isn't lembas bread... how about sabmel bread?

Just perfect!!! Tks a lot!!!

I actually think I understand the secret behind the properties of the bread, having watched an episode of Sanctuary that made things a lot more clear. The secret behind the restorative properties of the bread lays in it's yeast. The elves, long lived as they are, have the time to cultivate and store the yeast in a highly specific way. Until the bread itself if baked, the yeast is stored under artificial lighting, only, for generations, never being exposed to true sunlight. This causes it to begin producing megadoses of Vitamin D, which causes the surge of energy in those who eat it.

Make anything from the Redwall Abbey series. It's got the most imaginative dishes of any book/TV series I've seen, and I'm sure it would be a dream come true for any childhood fan of the series.

U are awesome!!! Plz always make more

If I knew you guys were gonna do the whole banana leaf thing I could've sent you guys a couple of leaves. There were some banana trees in my backyard up until last month.

I love Laura's voice. ;w; She's, like, the perfect Alto 2.

That is literally bird food. It really looks like what i put out for the wild birds

Put peanut butter on it. MORE PROTEIN. You will be full so fast.

I wish it looked more like the bread in the movie rather then just a bunch of seeds glued together .-. That's cool how they were able to make this though and account for a ton of people out there who may not be able to have the original thing

I LOVE HER VOICE

Sounds amazing :)

the fun part about recipes like this is you can customize it any way you want. and a quick question since some veggies have to be cooked to have their vitamins and minerals to be fully triggered how does this work in raw vegan? does the dehydrator solve this? and I am a omnivore but if it looks good I'll eat it. I even made my own chocolate lembas bread filled with nuts, seeds, dried fruit, chocolate chips, oatmeal, and protien powder.

You can also use a dehydrator for making jerky. Lots and lots of jerky.

Fantastic, it's only missing one ingredient: 5 KG OF BACON.

If you're wondering where to pick up all the ingredients for this recipe, most supermarkets have a special place to store things like Chia seeds and Psyllium Husks... They call it "The Garbage" Sorry, couldn't resist! Tried this recipe and it's actually very nice, PACKED with energy too, not quite up to the standards of real Lembas Bread, but better than the bacon laced monster they made last time :D.

I honestly imagined the Lembas like a Naan. Something like a thin bread with a lot of additives, like various nuts, raisins, etc. Such a bread already contains by default a lot of carbohydrates, protein, and fat. Oddly, enough coating it in Gee (butter extract) seems to increase the shelf-life. What you did reminds me more of an energy bar, but then I lack whey and do some grinding/mixing. Chocolate might also increase the shelf-life under certain conditions (when stored cool, it can prevent it from soaking up moisture). When it comes to really long-lasting marching provision, look up Hyorogan.

This looks way better and less deadly than the bacon nonsense before c: Can't wait to try it!

Lembas bread is supposed to be magical cornbread. For this recipe, I would at least ground the seeds and the flours so that you get a smooth mixture. Add some cornflour and some leavening agent and make a regular cornbread but infused with more nutrition.

Trying to make, but can't get hemp seeds down here. Any good substitutes?

omg her voice

what's psyllium husk and where do you get that from?

This doesn't look ANYTHING like lembas bread. To get something close to the description of lembas bread, you need an ingredient that becomes highly filling for the amount ingested (Perhaps swells in water, or reacts chemically with acid in a harmless way, if such a thing even exists)

Love laura! :D

Might be great for camping or hiking outdoors. A lightweight snack that doesn't need water to rehydrate it.

Very nicely done but sadly I prefer accuracy about practicality. Lembas was made from corn or the meal of corn (it's a special type of corn but still corn is corn) and the leaves used were Mallorn leaves and the closest thing to it would be birch trees. Still its a pretty nice version of it.

What would be a good oil substitute if someone's allergic to coconut? Just regular vegetable oil?

oh my~ this make me hungry..... and now is 12:32am singapore

Wow, now I'm a vegetarian (previously vegan so before anyone says I'm biased against this type of food I'm clearly not) sorry, but this looks and I suspect, tastes nothing like Lembas bread is supposed to, with the word bread being in the title I would have thought that would have told them what they should be aiming for when re-creating this in the real world. I also highly doubt that elves would have had a dehydrater (I know she said you could just bake it but shh I was just trying to make a point :P) I think Lembas bread was probably some sort of unleavened bread or at least that would be the closest thing we would be able to make.

Is there anything you can substitute the hemp with?

I'm not a vegetarian or vega, but check out Laura Miller on Tastemade: "Raw. Vega. Not Gross." Her show is awesome! There are so many recipes that are dessert-based, snack-based, and not everything is made only of seeds!
