The ancient Egyptians loved their beer. Here is one recipe for making beer, Egyptian style:
Boil barley and emmer wheat in a pot of water until it’s cooked and water is absorbed. Add cold water to make a brew. Fill the pot just before the rim.
Heat the mixture, adding more water and cooked malt. Add natural wild yeast and uncooked malt to the cooked malt. Health food stores have different types of natural yeast.
After adding the second batch of malt, cover, and allow the mixture to ferment. Without adding any flavoring, the beer should be fruity and sweet and taste like raspberries.
If you want to read more about Egyptian beer, how the Egyptians prepared their beer, and the many ingredients that went into the preparation of Egyptian beer, read Anne Hart’s interesting article on Egyptian beer.

>No Dr. Mariottini, you are not mean. YOu have a scholar’s mind and a pastor’s heart…a rare combination. But I do have a question about the water you drink….can you turn it into wine if not beer? (By the way, we’d never tell the “powers that be.” Besides, all good Presidents from the UK enjoy an occasional brew!)
