We will be on a nutty ride together in this class. Learn the ins & outs of one of the oldest traditions of food acquisition. You will obtain a clear understanding of all the steps involved in this somewhat complex & incredibly rewarding process. Plus you can process & taste an ancient food which is basically impossible to buy. This class will have hands-on opportunities for those interested.
Our presentation covers:
1) Oak identification
2) Acorn selection
3) Storage
4) Cracking & shelling
5) Winnowing + grinding
6) Cold & hot leaching
7) Recipes
This is a slightly advanced food to forage, but anyone can do it. You will definitely be feeling more connected with Oaks by the end of it. Looking forward to connecting over one of the most abundant and delicious foods on the planet.
