Notes
When using the Kitchen Mill: Add wheat berries and popcorn kernels to Kitchen Mill, and grind into flour. Follow the rest of the instructions as stated.
That is just for a variation. You can mill the berries in your blendtec.
Thanks! I see the new version with instructions for the Wildside Jar. Very helpful. Are you also working on updating the whole site so that we can index or search recipes by the blender we have? And are you working on making them print-able?
What do you mean by "select speed 9 and let it run through 2 full cycles"?
Instead of using wheat berries, can I use whole wheat flour?
Thanks for such a thorough answer, very informative.
