Mash it and add water
Bake it.
It is that simple
Allergies
Many people who have allergies to wheat, yeast, and dairy find they are able to eat and enjoy Essene Bread.
The process of sprouting the grain rather than milling the grain into flour changes the enzyme structure.
It becomes a 'living' food, not a dead food.
The enzymes aid your body in the digestive process.
History
The history of the Essene Community came to light with the discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls 40+ years ago.
The full scroll of how to make your daily bread was part of this archaeological find. The full text is in our page on the history.
It has been made since ancient times – some say 6000 years – and yet it has many advantages for our modern times.
Digestibility
Sprouting is a simple process but it has a huge effect on the grain. It makes indigestible grain easily digestible, flavoursome, alive and delicious.
Blood types
Readers of The Eat Right Diet by Dr. Peter D'Adamo will be aware that Essene bread is recommended for all blood types.
Outlets
Essene Bread was made by the Thomson family from Thomson Foods since 1988 in New Zealand.
In 2018 Rory & Lee-Ann Hamilton from
Health Support Naturally Ltd took over the business and it is now back in production from their small bake house in rural Kaiwaka.
Varieties
We use Certified Bio Grow Organic grains.
Grown in New Zealand
ORGANIC AND GE-FREE
Essene Bread is made from sprouted organic grain and purified water and nothing else.
After more than 30 years of making Essene bread in New Zealand the Thomson family have decided it is time to pass this on to someone else.
Rory & LeeAnn Hamilton from Health Support Naturally are now carrying on this ancient tradition and have started the Essene Bakery on their rural property in the small town of Kaiwaka.
