The inspiration for Ezekiel bread is the Bible text Ezekiel 4: 9 The texts entions these ingredients wheat, barley, beans, lentils and millet. The text before Ezekiel 4: 9 indicated that the bread was what they were to eat it during a seige until the seige had ended. Also verse 10 indicates 20 shekels a day is the weight of bread given to eat person to be rationed to eat during the seige.. A shekel is a measurement of weight used in Biblical times. I didn't write this recipe to match the correct amount of shekels a person is supposed to consume per day. Because Ezekiel bread is used as a symbol of giving up things to better sustain oneself thru times of trouble. But you probably want to use it as a nutitional break from unhealthful modern diets to rich in sugars, vinegars and saturated fats. A suggested improvement would be to add raisins or diced dried fruit such as apricots to it so its a meal in one on the go.
