Helpful Tips

• This recipe is better with the buttermilk, but you can substitute sour milk if you are in a hurry. You can add 1 tsp of vinegar or lemon to a cup of milk to create the sour milk. Let it sit five minutes before using.
• Yogurt can also be thinned to the same consistency as buttermilk and used as a substitute.
• Once you have added the milk and wheat you can cover blender and let stand at room temperature several hours or overnight to improve the nutritional value. Soaking helps neutralize the phytic acid contained in the grain and therefor increases the bodies absorption of nutrients.
• You can substitute a variety of grains. Try grains such as oats, buckwheat, brown rice, corn, or millet.
