Thank you, m’Lady. I just found your ping to me! Will read ... I love to garden, but my mobility is more limited now so I don’t get to enjoy that luxury. [I’ve often wondered how the flour made from dried, crushed acorns would have tasted. What would it taste like? The Cherokees, a truly great past civilization, made ‘hocakes’ from it!]
Good that you found us, as I haven’t had time to check my emails or to freep the others to the thread, can you believe this lovely group of Freepers, the cream of the crop.
It has been a 24 hours of one more post and to bed, only I never got all the posts caught up on and fear that I even missed some.
Acorns, from my memory, have a tannin acid in them and must be soaked to remove it, or it will be bitter.
Taste? that I do not know.
Guessing the taste would be off for my taste.
Someone sells acorn flour, not sure who, might even be at that link for King Arthur flour.
I can no longer garden, but do love the thought of it all.
We are covering all aspects of survival, LOL, from the ground up.
Making ends meet, discovering new or different ways and just plain ole living life.
