In the Fall, my yard is covered with acorns. I think I’ll take a whack at making acorn bread this year.

I made acorn bread about 30 years ago. Lot of work. I remember having to “leach” the bitterness out of the acorns.

I never tried it, but read somewhere (long before google) that a tea or tisane can be made from staghorn sumac not to be confused with poison sumac, totally different plants. One is more of a tree and the other a bush. I just looked it up on google and it’s called Indian Lemonade or Tea.
