(randomsnapshot), I haven't tasted these nuts myself but, before the Europeans came to California, the local people used stones to grind acorns to make flour and a meal similar to cornmeal. They made bread and pancakes with the flour, and used the meal to make stews. Acorns start out bitter, but if you rinse the flour or meal in water a certain way, the bitterness vanishes.

Fantastic… something so simple… yet so beautiful… maybe I was a squirrel in a past life. :D
