At most I soaked the rice (when whole) for a few hours, but couldn't find a difference. Maybe I'll try it. I think anything we eat should be living or able to live. So the rice has to sprout. I tried sprouting a couple of seeds. Millet is boring. Sesame is great. Barley is great (now I heard it's a recommended health and anti-cancer food) Quinoa didn' work. Buckwheat tastes good, but looks strange (gel-like) Almonds are very good, better than crude even. Hemp worked,but didn't taste very good (maybe due to husked variety I have) Sunflowers are great. Things to try: Walnuts (recommended by Jean-Claude) any nut Spelt. Pumpkin seed if you find unreasted Rice? Amadeus
