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. regards roberta [log in to unmask]
