These acorns are 1 to 1.5 inches long. No idea what oak species.

There was a guy a couple of years ago, here on mastodon, who was prepping and cooking acorns while making flour out of them, and he was posting the results all based on species.
Some of them required very little prep to get rid of the bitter taste. Anybody remember who that was or have any copies of those?

No clue, but possibly this person might know?

@Da_Gut
@jblue have you worked with acorns before?

[jblue@mastodon.world]

@aaron @Da_Gut ha! That was me. I’m not a guy though. I did two species, live oak and willow oak. The willow oak thread is pinned to my profile.

@jblue @aaron thank you! I do need to be better about using gender neutral terms when I cannot specifically remember the gender of the person involved for Internet activities anyway

I’ll reread it here in just a few. I don’t remember anything about it excepted it existed to be honest. The acorn thing is a very fediverse thing to do.
