Guest guest Posted May 14, 2006 Report Share Posted May 14, 2006 I don't think this will work for me, for two reasons: first, because the mild wheaty sweetness of the bread would be hard to taste with something very sweet like honey on it, and second, because I like some fat with my carbs . Maybe if I could add some creme fraiche! But I find it hard to believe that really good bread with really good butter can be improved on - just a personal passion. > > Best way to eat a slice of bread, is to spread it over with good > quality organic honey (not heated, raw) and leave it for an hour.

Guest guest Posted May 14, 2006 Report Share Posted May 14, 2006 well..if it is Raw butter..I am sure it will also have lots and lots of Enzymes....well you can always try a bit of kefir cream and raw honey :-) > > > > Best way to eat a slice of bread, is to spread it over with good > > quality organic honey (not heated, raw) and leave it for an hour.

Guest guest Posted May 14, 2006 Report Share Posted May 14, 2006 I've only had my kefir grains for three days, so I don't have any kefir cream yet - but creme fraiche is fermented, and I also add a good dollop of double cream to the whole mile when I make my yogurt (then strain it) so that's pretty creamy too. Sadly I haven't found a supplier for raw milk, cream or butter, though it's easy to get cheeses made with raw milk (I'm in England). You're making me want to go and start eating bread, and it's only an hour since I had my dinner! > > > > > > Best way to eat a slice of bread, is to spread it over with good > > > quality organic honey (not heated, raw) and leave it for an hour. > The > > > enzymes from the honey will start acting on and breaking down the > carbs > > > in the bread to sugars...it really becomes sweeter !!! > > > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 16, 2006 Report Share Posted May 16, 2006 I like that. I thought, though, that the enzymes didn't become activated until they hit the gi track at the appropriate places that have the right ph for that specific food. Someone on the list said something like that. Anyone know whether this is true or not?

Guest guest Posted May 16, 2006 Report Share Posted May 16, 2006 No ..it is not true... I think you maybe thinking of Enzyme Inhibitors..Seeds/nuts/beans that have enzyme inhibitors in them...for example all the beans that one sprouts...mung..alfa alfa, chick peas..almonds etc. The enzyme inhibitors protects the seeds/nuts from total breakdown. When the seed/nut/bean is put in water, the enzyme inhibitors are released and the enzymes start acting converting startches to sugars and breaking down some of the proteins to amino acids.. I have just harvested some almonds...I soaked them for 24 hours and then alowed them to sprout slightly for another 24 hours..they are very sweet and easy to eat...and all the enzyme inhibitors have been destroyed. That is why if you eat raw almonds...they are very difficult to digest because of the enzyme inhibitors... Also just to show you how enzymes can really work on pre-digesting your food before it is even put into your mouth... I took an Organic Salmon Steak...and covered it with blended Papaya and put it in the fridge.. After 24 hours in the fridge, the salom steak almost vanished...the Enzyme Papain in Papaya..almost digested the Raw Salmon..amazing.. Actually in the meat industry Enzymes are used to Tenderize meat..you can buy meat tenderizers, which are basically just enzymes...they will act on the protein and starch and pre-digest the meat before cooking... So go ahead and spread some organic honey on your bread...this was a hint from the book on Enzyme Nutrition ny the great enzymologist ...Dr Howell .. > > > Best way to eat a slice of bread, is to spread it over with good > > quality organic honey (not heated, raw) and leave it for an hour.
