I have experimented with my Kialla flour from Relish Organics, and though I suspect it doesnt have the protein levels as the South Australian premix I purchase, its perfectly fine for breadmaking. The S.A. brand of course has all the "additives" to make it soft, with crusty outside etc. The Kialla Bread premix has soy flour in it, and I'm not sure of the source, so I tried the unbleached organic and the stoneground organic flour and just used my breadmakers recipe for breadmaking from scratch rather than a premix and both produced great results. The bonus is of course I know whats in it and where it comes from.
I have some more reading to do from Jeff Buckleys book "Growing Healthy" - its an interesting read for all those budding horticulturalists. Gardening Australia also had a great piece from Jerry Coleby-Williams on growing starch crops (other than the usual potatoes). So the kitchen garden plan is coming together without it going to look like a "kitchen garden".
A Bush Turkey has suddenly decided we are a great place to forage the last few days, he even decided the pool looked inviting ( silly, cold, wet, Turkey!). So we may need to think of some barrier strategies as well before we plant!
