The process began with seeding the winter grains some time ago (see earliest posts) in our backyard homestead in Bellingham, WA. Then -- separating the grain from the chaff, in a process called threshing and winnowing. Great video on this at

Then the extra-cleaning begins, making sure there are no small stones present, before grinding into flour...
followed by making the sponge (Tassajara Bread recipe, one I've been using for decades)...
