I'll solve the mystery of what I did here 😆

I collected acorns, dried them for 8 hours, then peeled them, cut them into small pieces and put them in water. The water should be changed at least twice a day for 5-6 days so that the tannins can be flushed out. When the water stayed clear, I dried them again in the dehydrator. Now they are dry. and you can just snack them like this, but they still have a bit of tannin, which makes them feel a bit bitter and furry in the mouth. Maybe I'll grind it into flour to make cookies or energy balls with apricot kernel flour. Let's see.

Roasted, it can be used as a coffee substitute. But then many valuable vital substances are lost.

Why did I go through this laborious process? I even got blisters from peeling!!!

I just wanted to try it out. After all, there are acorns in abundance on the ground in autumn. And they are said to be super nutritious. Acorns contain fiber, starch, healthy fats, protein, vitamins (e.g. B vitamins) and minerals such as potassium, magnesium and iron.

Have you already had experience with this? Or would you try that too?

Let me know, I'm super curious, as I love experimenting with what nature offers us in abundance 💚
