Ezekiel Bread Mix is a blend of four grains and four beans based on the biblical recipe of Ezekiel 4:9. It is composed of nutritious Whole Grains and Beans. Ezekiel Bread Mix must be ground into flour before being made into bread. It can be baked into Ezekiel bread, or used in soups or stews. Additional recipes can be found at Recipes and Trail Foods, Book III. This product sustained the prophet Ezekiel for 390 days. A less expensive formula using Rye instead of Organic Spelt has been developed.

Ezekiel, Essene and Manna breads are made from 100% sprouted grains, as opposed to all other commercially available sprouted grain breads which also have regular flour included in the recipe. The lectins in many grains are contained in the seed coat. The seed coat is actually metabolized by the seed/grain when it is germinated, thereby eliminating the lectin and rendering the food useable. New brand names of sprouted grain bread are continually coming to market.

Our California Style Complete Protein Bread contains the essential ingredients as listed in Ezekiel Verse 4:9 in the Old Testament.

Bread Mixes and Premixes are a convenient way of making bread. Most bread mixes/premixes will contain all the necessary ingredients such as flour, sugar, bread improver salt etc. to make a loaf of bread. Usually, the only addition necessary is the yeast and water. It is important to check the instructions of what additions are necessary to achieve optimum results.

This can happen if the bread mix has been subjected to damp or moist conditions ie. the ambient temperature (humidity) can contribute to this, or if flour is in an exposed container on a hot day where the flour can sweat, or in a cool room (refrigerated).

You can decant large packs of bread mix into a container. Ensure the container is tightly sealed after each use to help prevent protein deterioration.

We do not recommend you directly mix the product with any other substance. You may use additional moisturizers, toners and cleansing products in routine with our products. Please test for skin irritation when using multiple products on the face and body.

It is likely that too little liquid was added to your dough. During bread making one adds liquid to the yeast to stimulate its production of CO2 allowing the dough to rise. If too little liquid is added the yeast cannot produce enough gluten, causing the loaf to be too small and dense.

the protein in flour deteriorates over a period of time, therefore not producing an optimum loaf of bread, it is not recommended that bread mix with an expired use by date be used.

This mix sits at a very competitive price because it does not contain yeast. It is more cost effective to purchase a bulk pack of yeast separately.

Each Package of J.B. Dough Gourmet Bread Mix makes a generous one pound loaf and fits a standard bread pan.

A. Because this product is a very fine and delicate powder, we recommend mixing it with water or any juice or liquid that is not above lukewarm (less than 110 degrees F, and NEVER above 120 degrees F) temperature. First, mix the packet with approx. 1 tablespoon of the liquid you have chosen to form a paste. Second, now pour the liquid to fill your glass. Allow it to sit for a few minutes, stir, and enjoy.

Our bread rises as a result of the starter method we use. All Pacific Bakery products are made under supervision of Kosher Overseers of America (KOA). They are not suitable for Passover because they are leavened.

These products are not recommended for canning; choose recipes that you can freeze. In fact, most of these products are not really "canned." The directions call for baking in the jar and then closing with a canning lid. Many recipes for quick breads and cakes are low-acid and have the potential for supporting the growth of a bacteria like Clostridium botulinum if it is present inside the closed jar. One university's research showed a high potential for problems.
