Hi! I love your website. I also love this series because I have not been doing food storage long and have not really done anything with long term storage items. This has really motivated me to want to start. I already had a few cans of powder milk and one can of powdered eggs that I got from a group order and now I can use them. I have been taking notes on my blog about what I learned, what recipes I want to make and what other questions I have that I need to research. It seems to be helping me and I like being able to go back and refer to it. Come look if you get a chance. Thanks again!
if you are on the east coast – and have never tried hard white wheat before (like I never had) most healthfood stores and stop & shop/whole foods (wholepaycheck) have the Bob’s Redmill hard white whole wheat flour. Its an easy way to try in a manageable amount.
Thank you, thank you, thank you. I purchase both some hard red and hard white wheat. I had done some reading and figured out to try the hard white with cookies and cakes and other baked goods. But I still didn’t understand some of it, and you explained it so well!! Thanks for helping me understand this more fully and for the tips on starting out. My family is very shy about anything that doesn’t look white, so I love your tips! Thanks so much!
Thank you so much! This video was awesome. I learned so much that I never knew about wheat. =)

I found your web site by accident and so glad I have! I’ve been watching you vedios and reading your receipes, you make it sound so easy! As I am on call for the next two days with our ambulance I can’t try your ideas for a couple of days. But, I must tell you I have made bread for years and never had a problem until I moved to Utah. I have the hardest time getting my bread to rise. (maybe it’s the altitude) I have asked many of my neighbors why does their bread turn out so good, and can you show me how? (some do not like to give up their secrets). Others give me their receipes, which isn’t any differant than what I already have, but my bread still will not rise and it always looks like a brick! (LOL). The one thing I have noticed in your receipes is that you add gluten and potato flakes! No one here has given me that little secret. So thankyou so much and I can’t wait to try it out this week-end.
