"Raw nuts and seeds contain phytates, which bind to important minerals, like
iron, zinc, magnesium and calcium, and leach these minerals from the body,"

Key to Sustained Weight Loss and Vibrant Health ($28). "Soaking and rinsing
raw nuts and seeds effectively reduces the phytates and enzyme inhibitors."

 

The process is as easy as soaking the nuts in salted water and letting them
dry out in an oven set to low heat. Once dried, the nuts and seeds will be
extra crispy. Try tossing them with cinnamon, paprika and cumin; or mix in
some roasted coconut flakes and enjoy them on salads, over oatmeal or
straight out of hand.



Crispy Nuts and Seeds 

Active time: 5 minutes

Total time: 20 to 32 hours 

4 cups raw, organic nuts or seeds of your choice (avoid roasted or
pre-salted varieties and soak one kind at a time)

1 tablespoon sea salt

Filtered water (enough to cover nuts)

1.       Soak nuts or seeds fully submerged in salted water for a minimum of
8 hours and up to 24 hours.

2.       Once they are finished soaking, rinse the nuts or seeds thoroughly
in a colander. Preheat your oven to its lowest setting (around 120 degrees
F). Place the nuts or seeds in a single layer on a baking tray and place
them in the oven. Let dehydrate for at least 12 hours and up to 24 hours
until nuts or seeds are dry and crispy. It's important to let them dry fully
so they don't mold.

3.       Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator or a cool, dry
place for up to 1 month.
