What's happening
with the autumn leaves your way? I know your a little
further north than I.
How long does one need to boil acorns until their
ready to eat? Is it until the pungent taste goes
away? Do you have to roast them?

The edges of the woods are bright yellow and orange
Its green center serving as a backdrop for change.
Nuts fall, mornings cool, busy squirrels.
Red oak acorns need to be leached of tannin
Tannin is used in
tanning hides and makes
A home treatment for rashes, poison ivy, poison oak.
I boil them for 3-6 min and change pots 2-3 times
Throwing them into already boiling water releases
The tannin more quickly, if they soak in cold
Water then brought to a boil it tends to lock in
the tannin.
I roast them for flavor and to dry them quickly to
Stick in a bag.
White oaks (oaks with rounded leaves, reds are pointed)
Are sweet out of the shell.
Acorns can be ground into flour and an unleavened bread
