Has anyone ever tried using lupin flour? My DH heard a report on the radio about it at the weekend and it sounds like it has a great many beneficial uses - lowers blood pressure, good for heart health, siginificant reduction in blood pressure .... It can be used in place of or added to foods using normal flour and you can also sprout the seeds. That's the sum total of my knowledge at this stage. Does anyone else have any knowledge of uses / benefits / disadvantages, etc. of lupin flour. I have since found this web site. I hope my first attempt at inserting a url link has worked.

Hi Pete good to have you join us. You will be joining a growing band of men posting on this forum, so you shouldn't feel too overwhelmed by us women!
There are no end of good recipes to try out and experiment with on the forum - the hardest part is deciding which one to try next!

Oh you poor things. The TMX will certainly make it easier for you to prepare your meals in temporary accommodation if necessary. I am originally from just out of Wellington so have been watching all the earthquakes over there with great sadness. Chch is such a beautiful city I just hope that everything will stop shaking now and that all the various stresses have worked themselves out.
Take care.

Although I have never made a sprouted grain loaf, would the bread you are looking for be somewhat similar? It may be easier to find a sprouted grain loaf recipe than the rice one you are looking for.

Thanks for all that info. I have one question as a follow on - and I think I know the answer, but I'll ask it anyway. Does the amount of kneading you give the dough detract from the finished loaf, i.e. if you over-knead does it make the loaf worse - or better?

Eloquy, because I'm not an instinctive cook, when I got my machine I stuck solely to recipes in the books, and latterly to the forum. I found that I got hooked on risottos pretty quickly so, when I reaslised what I was doing, I made one promise to myself - that I would try at least one new dish each week That's the easy part - the hard part, I quickly realised, was deciding just what that new meal / dish would be (due to our personal situation, I am only able to cook on a Sunday, so I have a slightly different time frame to just about everyone else on this forum).
Anyway, now I am into the routine and spend Friday nights planning my market shopping on Saturday so that I am ready to get to work to cook our week's food on Sunday - usually with several new recipes to tackle each week - it's such fun!

Welcome and glad you're loving your TMX. The bread is great, isn't it?
For many of us, this is / was our first forum so our love of the TMX also eases us into learning other skills that, perhaps, we would not have used previously, such joining a forum and, perhaps, starting up a blog / facebook page, etc. It really is a whole new experience.

Welcome - you'll have a great time with the TMX and, before you know it, you'll be a trend setter and have loads of people following your lead.
Where do you live in NZ?

Dede, if it's not too late, have another read of Andisenji's post and perhaps you could try one of the alternatives she mentions. It may be easier to do that than grill the people at the shop as they very possibly don't know (or, quite simply, don't even realise) what is in the bread improvers.

I haven't had trouble posting replies but just over the past day or two have had trouble getting into the forum, it's very intermittent, though (I use Firefox).
