Topic & Demo: Preparation of Grains, Nuts, Seeds and Legumes

One of the key principles of the Weston A. Price Foundation principles is the proper preparation of grains, nuts, seeds and legumes.  Traditional people took great care with the preparation of grains and seeds.  The seeds of plants naturally contain “anti-nutrients”.  By neutralizing these before consuming them we can improve their digestion and absorption.

Gluten containing grains (such as wheat and rye), gluten-free grains (such as rice, and corn), as well as nuts, and seeds that are used in place of grains (such as quinoa, amaranth, and teff) all need careful preparation in order to maximize nutrition.

Bring a vegetarian friend!

Although the potluck will hopefully have several non-vegetarian dishes (made with nutrient-dense meats, bone broth and animal fats), this would be a great topic to introduce to your vegetarian friends.  People who avoid the use of animal foods in particular need to make sure they are maximizing their nutrition from the grains, nuts, seeds and legumes they eat, as they tend to rely more heavily on these foods.
