Rejuvelac

Name: Rejuvelac
Yield: 4
Ingredients: 1 cup of wheat or another good-quality grain; 2 cups of water

Rejuvelac is a drink made from steeping sprouted wheat grain. It is worth drinking for its great capacity to repopulate the intestinal flora and rejuvenate the body: it provides chlorophyll and has regenerative properties. It also helps counter tiredness, infections and constipation, among many other complaints, while giving you energy.

Serves 4:

1 cup of wheat or another good-quality grain
2 cups of water

Soak the grain for 16 to 24 hours — less time in summer. Then pour off the soaking water and use the wheat for sprouting. Leave the water somewhere warm (between 20 °C and 24 °C) to ferment for two or three days. After that, stir the fermented liquid and keep it in the fridge. Taste it after 24 hours and drink it when the flavour is to your liking.
