Do you have a source to recommend for hand crank items?

I have been making water based kefir drinks with the fruit tree harvest. We call them fizzy drinks.
Apples work well and nice when ginger is added. Makes for a ginger ale like experience.
I was whizzing up the fruit with water then straining through cloth. The pulp makes a nice raw applesauce that keeps for days in the fridge (or becomes a little ripe and is still good).
I find apple pectin an agreeable input in the fall.
People have called the body the temple, but I'm finding it no stretch at all to think of it as a garden.
One food I like to eat for its highly nutritive content is chia seeds. I've taken to eating them whole in something like raw apple sauce or cooked oats or oat bran. I feel that they retain their efa 3's further down the alimentary canal that way, as efa's 3's are particularly heat sensitive. So, I eat them with their protective spherical shape intact. Yummy, too.
I ate no starches whatsoever for many years. Definitely no grains. In the end, it was wonderful to get back to eating some. But, earlier, it was a revelation to go without and helped me to focus my mind.

Back to the bread topic for a minute. Dave and I were chatting about the grains and it's the gluten that will make a difference in actually forming a bread that will hold together.
Sprouts are just a really neat way to find superior nutrition and more alkalinizing chemistry in many seeds and grains. Kitchen as garden.

That's the info I was looking for. I will then stick with my large
collection of hand crank: food grinders, meat grinders, grain mills

I am sure they will do the job. I would prefer the chewy texture too.

Raw apple date sauce:

A recipe for tart sweet apples, raw and with sweet Barhis dates:

Chill the apples

core and cut into large slices

feed slices into a hand crank, tabletop mounted meat grinder with coarse

add many Barhis dates along with the apple slices to the grinder

put coarse apple-date sauce in bowl and enjoy this excellent raw food

does many things, including shredding and slicing. We actually make
all of the food we eat, and do not use much of anything at all that
is processed other than, say, some matcha tea, if you call that
processed. Oh, and things like dried this or that and maybe a powder

Dave's progress in the search for camper van! Greetings from the west

Camper van: lots of issues with used equipment, including engine. For my
money maybe OK if you get a bargain, otherwise maybe a money sinkhole.
Get a Toyota truck and build your own camper onto it, 2 storey!
