I assume you're referring to "essene bread" which in recent years has
been sold under a Canadian trade name produce as "manna bread".  It is
baked masticated sprouted grains.  It is cooked at quite low temps,
around 180 F for traditional recipes, just enough to dry it out and have
a crust.  Many people with other grain intolerances can consume these
OK.
