Watched once for the great oatmeal tutorial, watched a second time to soak in the beauty of this massive kitchen!
As an Aussie grandmother, that reminded me of how my Mum and Grandma cooked rolled oats on the stove. We also ate them in ANZAC biscuits made at home. I still flavour my porridge with cinnamon, sultanas, peanut butter and whole milk. Sometimes I eat it for dessert with whole ice cream.
Years of “healthy” oatmeal breakfast and I never knew we weren’t getting much out of it! This is so helpful!
Great video!! I find a two day soak is the sweet spot for me.
My dear Mrs. Fallon Morell, I'm from Germany an I bought your books. I learned so much. Thanks a lot. I'm a working woman, my free time for home making ist limited. But I try to do as much as possible on my own. Greetings from the lake of constance. ❤
Great video, very nice to hear and see Sally in her kitchen, teaching the most important things and sharing these facts with anyone with ears to hear.
When I soak my oats I use really strong kombucha, like when you forget about your kombucha and it turns basically into vinegar, and that seems to work really well!
I put the soaked oats in a fine sieve and rinse them off and it helps reduce the tangy flavor.

I've been soaking my oats overnight (with vinegar is nasty but using whey gives it such a nice flavor!) I have noticed a huge difference in how long it takes for me to get hungry! I really like these types of videos. Please consider doing one about flours. I'm a little confused about when to soak flour or sprout flour, or where do what I call alternative flours, like almond flour, fit into our diets? Where does sourdough fit in? If I'm using sourdough is soaking unnecessary? Really appreciate all the work you have personally done to help us understand how to eat healthily.
Wondering video. Sally I love your kitchen. Please do more of these videos
Vry Moralistic seed is living being vry much preserved in bran for its survival, while acidifying & soaking is surely a way to bypass its antinutrient's specialties by adding rye having phytase neutralizes oatmeal phytic acid which latch on to minerals making dem unbioavailable. Vry Great breakfast tutorial
2 teaspoons of salt is a lot! I used half a teaspoon of Himalayan and it was salty. Also, the Rye flakes have also been processed (and gone through extrusion) so I used organic rye wholemeal flour, guessing that will do the trick ☺ Thanks for the tip on using whey and rye!
I am so in love with Sally F. A blessing for humankind during these times. Keep it up lady!
Yes! We've been making oatmeal regularly for years and your guidance re: the extrusion in cereals has been our standard!

Sally, I got your book, Nourishing Traditions, many years ago, and it changed my life. I have always tried to eat healthy, and your book helped me understand the the basis of how I could do that. It is my go-to resource when I want to understand more about what I put into my body. Thank you so much. In this video I learned how rye flakes assist in the predigestion of oats. This was new information for me.
Thank you for a great video! More of Sally's cooking please 😇
Loved !
Thank you. Greetings From Rio de Janeiro.
It’s amazing how full of life, energy, and vitality Sally is at her age, compared to most people at her age in America who are sick, on Tons of medications, and can barely remember yesterday. She is all the proof I need to see not any of the “scientific studies” lol she is goals and how I want to be when I’m at her age !
At 4:54, Sally suggests that the whey will activate the enzymes in the oats and rye. However, before being rolled, oats are heat treated to denature the enzymes they contain so as to length their shelf life. Thus, there are NO enzymes in the oats that can be activated. Now, Sally might claim that this isn't a problem because the rye flakes haven't been heat treated and thus contain phytase which can be activated. And, furthermore, because rye is naturally high in phytase, those few rye flakes that have been added contain enough phytase to break down the phytic acid in all of the oats. Happy days! However, I'm not so sure. When rye is a whole grain, the bran layer protects the enzymes within. However, when the bran layer is broken - either by milling or rolling - the insides of the grain become exposed to the air. And whilst the milled or rolled rye will initially have plenty of phytase, my understanding is that, after milling or rolling, the enyzmes break down pretty quickly. And, thus, if Sally's rye flakes are a number of months old, I'm sceptical that they'll contain any phytase. Therefore, I'm unconvinced that any phytic acid will be broken down using Sally's method. If one wishes to use rye to break down the phytic acid in the oats, then I think one would need to add freshly milled rye flour to the oats just prior to soaking. This, I think, would guarantee the presence of phytase. But, of course, it pretty substantially changes the flavour of the dish.

For someone who is a non-secretor of blood type antigen into their tissues/fluids, hence no bifida in gut to break down phytic acid and consequently gets tons of cavities when eating phytic acid (20% of the population btw), anything to do with phytase is a critical subject for me. I am new to fermenting, but just used rye sourdough starter with whey for my rolled oats soak last night. Guess I will have to find some whole rye, that I can ground as needed. I also have read that buckwheat can also be used for phytase?
This is super awesome! The only thing I don't like about dates is the high oxalate and sugar content in them. Thank you for sharing this!

I homeschool my kids, so I get to personally witness the effects their breakfast has on their attention. I saw a lot of improvement when I switched from allowing them to have breakfast cereals to making them scrambled eggs. They do get tired of eating eggs everyday. I recently started feeding them German pancakes, which doesn't quite fit ancestral cooking. I am going to try soaking the flour in kefir. Feeding them breakfast would be a lot easier if they would eat oatmeal.

I credit my childhood diet as the reason my teenage anorexia and subsequent malnutrition didn’t utterly decimate my health for life
okay i think i finally understood. sprouting oats means using only water and letting it sit out on counter for up to a week depending on ambient temperature. while fermenting oats uses lemon, apple cider vinegar or whey to break down phytic acid in oats for 24-48 hrs. sowens preparation is basically sprouting oats! im right, right?

Yes buckwheat is a gluten free alternative “By adding 10% whole wheat, whole rye or whole buckwheat to complementary foods (e.g., wheat and soy, millet and cowpea, and rice and chickpea foods) it was possible to degrade phytic acid completely in 1-2 h by holding the mixture in aqueous solution at the optimum pH of the phytase”(Influence of Vegetable Protein Sources on Trace Element and Mineral Bioavailability).

One problem, the ray in flakes due to the industrial process loose the phytase because of the heat...so in the end there's minimal phytase or non.

I'm really interested in the glycemic index of those rightfully prepared oats. Or a chart on as to how much they spike insulin. As a woman with PCOS i left my vegan diet behind bc of the high carb content and went back to the way I grew up eating (eggs, fish, butter, cream, meat, veggies, fermented foods) and therefore dropped all high gylcemic foods such as grains, breads, pastas, sweets, candies and yes, even fruit to some extend. I wonder that if prepared this way, i could incorporate things like oatmeal or other grains as sided in my daily diet again

@@mrs.debrie8913 For some context: I first went Keto and started doing daily exercise (mainly cardio, which now in hindsight I know, was not the best choice but it was what worked the fastest). It was clean keto, so no un-saturated oils, only saturated fats mainly from ainmal products, but also coconut oil. I lost a lot of weight very quickly on this regiment, especially my belly fat around my ovaries. Almost all of my PCOS symptoms vanished after that initial weight loss. Cycles became regular like clockwork. They were symtpom free, so most times in the beginning I wouldnt even notice that my period had started. Most PMS symptoms like sore breasts and moodiness went away as well. In that sense I had managed my PCOS like a charm. After that, I got sucked into veganism. Mainly bc I still had some persistent acne and all those veganism promoters would say how it cured their acne. I got sucked into it and stayed on it for 4 years. I regained most of my weight and my cycles got even more disturbed than before. PMS symptoms got me bed-ridden every month. It was hard to go back to animal products again bc of the tribalism in the vegan community. I'm back to animal foods and an ancestral diet now, and also reduced my carbohydrate intake again. I wont cut them out completely though this time, bc I believe in the health promoting factors of properly prepared carbs like soaked and sprouted grains and sourdough bread. But to answer your question: yes, ancestral animal foods and exercise helped to manage my weight, which in return got rid of almost all of my PCOS symtpoms.

@@ritakilicci4897 After doing keto/low carb for 1.5 years, I ended up with the inability to digest most foods with fiber; boils/carbuncles on my skin, severe insomnia, and constant muscle spasms in my leg unless I took a large amount of magnesium on a daily basis. This also disturbed my calcium balance, because those two minerals are very much linked. This also exacerbated my skin problems, as I had no defence against strep bacteria going into the hair follicles. Although I lost a lot of weight, it was not worth all of these health issues that were very problematical. I currently follow an ayurvedic (sans yoga, pranayama, etc) pitta pacifying diet that has saved my life. It includes plant and animal foods. I think the whole "bi-polar" approach these days, ie, you are either vegan or carnivore, is insane and unhealthy. We need some of all healthy sources, plant AND animal. That is the Nourishing Traditions philosophy.

@@StefanNihoniho you could probably easily find this online, but I remember years ago Sally mentioning this in a podcast. The podcaster asked Sally if you can soak oats and dehydrate them for granola. She mentioned cooking was an important step. If you roll your own oats it will retain the good qualities like freshly milked grains do so you don’t need to soak them at all. Just roll and use that day. She mentions this in another podcast too. Freshly milled grain for cream of wheat doesn’t need to be fermented because, like raw milk, it has the good to counter act the bad. I know you want me to site you and I understand that. But trying this way of eating and the out comes we’ve experienced by trial and error we have seen what works and what doesn’t. Some would roll their eyes at that and I understand that as well. I’m sure you can find this information easily though.

You would have to allow the raw milk to separate into whey since the oats need to be soaked in a slightly acid solution. Leave some raw milk covered at room temperature for a few days until it separates, then use the whey.

Just cover your oats with enough water so they’re covered by like 1/2 an inch. Add your acid of choice and stir. And I don’t like the acidic flavor so in the morning I drain and rinse the oats, put them in a pan, then cover with how much water I want to cook them in. Start low, you can always add more.
