What is sprouted flour?

Answer 1

Sprouted Whole Grain Flour, is a finely ground, powdery whole grain plant food stuff obtained by intentionally sprouting, sound, # 1 and/or # 2 grade quality grain that is non-sprouted, and then milled into a finished whole grain product. The finished Sprouted Whole Grain Flour is the result of purposefully germinating the grain into a living plant. It is made from the entire grain, inclusive of bran, germ, and endosperm. To assure a high quality Sprouted Whole Grain Flour it must result in a Falling Number one half of its original Falling Number prior to sprouting. The health benefits can only be obtained when the Falling Number has been reduced by half (plus or minus 10%), confirming that the optimal amount of endosperm has been transformed into a simple sugar.
