Another one of Kathy’s great gluten free recipes. In this recipe, soaking makes the grain easier to digest and adds some fermentation, improving taste and adding friendly bacteria (like yogurt does).
Just a short aside, since she introduced soaking. To make any grain or bean more digestible, soak them. For grains like oats and rice soak them for at least a half hour. Add a little lemon or lime to the water to improve the results. If you are making a grain like cornmeal, soak it using the liquid called for in the recipe. When soaking beans overnight, the addition of a little lemon or lime will improve digestibility.
