- Acorns were a major food source for native tribes. There are many ways to prepare acorns for immediate use or for future storage. They are nutritious and very abundant in the fall and winter months. In this video I show you a simple way to prepare tasty nutritious acorn cookies that can be eaten immediately or stored for the future.

You're not living until you use a cows rib to bake your cookies. No additives, no bs, just clean ingredients. 😊 great video Chad
Hahahah! Hey, whatever you can get, just make it work.
That shape has to be steroids😁🤤
Maybe let’s learn how to cook or bake first… it didn’t look cooked.

West of Albany New York, we at the Iroquois Museum found a butternut processing site, including an in situ backpack basket filled with them. Four of the most exquisite stone tools I’ve ever seen were at the top of the basket. Radiocarbon date was 2000 BCE. We also found a lap anvil and five nutting stones. No one has ever found a basket in New York (and probably not even anywhere in New England), and the only reason it was preserved, was because, over four millennia, the Schoharie Creek flooded into the basket and their tannic acid is preserved the basket.
amazing! thanks.
Wow! That is so amazing and interesting. Thanks for sharing this. Tannic acid is used for tanning hides. I've used it to dye yucca fibers too.
@bethsuter4637 BCE? You mean, BC (before Christ)?
@@nothingleft3473BCE stands for “Before Common Era.” Just like how we use CE as a more science based way of saying AD, we also use BCE as a more technical way of saying BC. The year 500 BCE. is the same year as 500 BC

Attractive nature, calm and tranquility away from disturbance and psychological anxiety. Thanks a lot Chad for your time and efforts 🙏
Thanks for watching!
@@ChadZuberAdventures You’re most welcome 🙏
Keep it up Chad, you are an amazing person. I have been able to adapt to this harsh and primitive life. Your food and drinks are made from nature without the need for modern things like canned goods and other things. You are truly an amazing person, thanks 🙏
I'm always on the quest to figure out how to live totally disconnected from the outside modern world.
Chad, have you considered growing amaranth? It's usually quite drought tolerant, and was a major staple crop of the Aztecs, who reputedly farmed even more of it than maize. The seeds are edible as a pseudograin similar to quinoa, but even more nutritious as they contain all nine essential amino acids, and the leaves are similar to spinach. Young and tender leaves are best for eating raw, with the older ones cooked through sauteeing, boiling, steaming, and so forth.
Yes, there is a wild variety that grows during the summer rains. Someone also sent me a cultivated variety to try growing.

Is there no end to this man talents?! And where does he find the time?!
Another great storyteller video Chad
Time is all used up. I'm so busy 7 days a week. I don't have time to stop.
One of the few things that I enjoy watching
Me too, good day.
Thank you so much!
@@ChadZuberAdventures Much love, with you are amazing.
Looks a lot of fun. 😂
You're onto something now Chad. If you can procure a source of fat and salt, you will be able to make basic unleavened bread from the acorn flour you process. Flour is a vital component in baking and cooking in general. Cookies are the first step towards creating and maintaining a portable food source that you can take with you on long trips. Another food source which utilizes flour and water at a ratio of 2:1 A.K.A. hard tack can also be taken and stored for long periods of time; up to a year in fact, if stored properly.
Native peoples would have been hunting animals and had animal fats. He can't legally do that for his videos.
acorn oil?
The acorn flour naturally contains fat so that is good. There are places to acquire salt but I haven't found any exactly right here.
This might be the single best channel on all of CZcams. Dedication at its finest. thank you so much for taking us along and showing us your craft.
Thank you so much
Твоє життя дуже цікаве.Обожнюю коли ви щось готуєте або рибалете.Привіт з Котельви 🇺🇦
Велике спасибі. Скоро розпочнеться рибальський сезон.
Просматривая такие видео, мне всегда хочется есть 😅 Что может быть лучше, чем пища в дикой природе ? 🙏🏻
Надеюсь, у тебя есть что-нибудь вкусное.
@@ChadZuberAdventures На природе любая еда вкуснее 😉
@@maxon9100 Особенно в сибире,в зимний период)
Does the sweater mostly feel like cloth or does it have more of a dry grass feel to it, do you sometimes feel the hair in the fiber?
I'm interested in the answer too.
Me too
Likewise
I can feel the fibers a little but it's totally tolerable. It provides a little warmth and actually looks kinda nice too.
@ChadZuberAdventures I agree that it looks really great actually!

Oh my you are my hero. I am going to “always follow you.”
19:06 The little huff of satisfaction tells the entire story.
Long live cookies and love❤️👽🇮🇨🇪🇸
بسیار خوشحالم که دوباره شما را میبینم....
متشکرم. من هم خوشحالم که شما را اینجا می بینم.
Now that’s what I call Slow Food cooking! My mouth was actually watering. Thanks for another great video, Chad.
Really? Hahah, yeah they really are tasty.
Now that was a cool episode, what an incredible amount work went into this. Great work thank you Chad, this was really interesting
The reality is that primitive people labored a lot to collect and prepare foods. That was their job. Get food! It really is a full-time job. In today's modern world we are so disconnected from that process because we have supermarkets and modern kitchens and even fast-food restaurants. Now we just grab and eat.
Ver tutoriales aburridos de cocina : 🥱
Ver a Chad hacer unas buenas galletas de bellota primitivas: 😎👍
Jajajajjaaj!
Must be a great feeling, enjoying your food after days of preparing.
Yeah, it gives a great sense of appreciation when you have to work this hard to eat.
You are in great condition, man .....and very knowledgeable.
I'm working on it
Watching from Philippines 🇵🇭
Ground up acorn shells could make an excellent soil conditioner. Especially in heavy clay soil this allows oxygen to get to the roots of plants.
The ash of the shells, along with other wood, will add micro-nutrients to the soil of the garden without having to grind the shells.
i hate this heavy clay soil slander. California is literally one of the most biodiverse places on earth, research about the california floristic province. Yet we have heavy clay soil.
They are quite hard and would require a lot of effort to grind. There are plenty of other options that are just as good.
No tech no over knowledge no over thinking just pure work and rest
Dear Chad, I like to watch your videos because they are relaxing, it relaxes me to see what the landscape is like, your routine, nature, etc. Excellent channel, excellent content, success! 💪💪
Thank you so very much. I really appreciate it. Blessings to you.
Perlu banyak hari untuk membuat 1 episode, sangat respek 👏
Those cookies look really good. The Orange fruit seems very moist. I like the Manzanita. Not only does it provide food, but the flowers are beautiful!
Yes, manzanita flowers are really beautiful. The berries are great for making pemmican.
Honestly ur rawness amazes me.. keep up good work pal i am 28 and u motivated me that there's more to life ❤
never stop making these videos please I love them
Thank you!
19:05 that expression... after all that hard labor... my mouth became moist 😂
Not only a look of surprise that they are good, but of the unusual variety of nutrients hitting his system and making him smirk a bit because he knows how impossible it is to find anything like that in the modern food markets.
They really taste good. The black oak acorns are one of the best tasting acorns and dried prickly pear is just absolutely delicious. Great combination!
Мужик, мастер на все руки.
Those look really good...reminds me of fennel cakes I made years ago.
I've seen Mayan ladies make corn flour and they use a different tool than a mortar and pestle but it's a similar idea. It's like a big flat stone set at an angle over a bowl they use an oblong rock and larger motions to grind more material at a time, then they'll shake the bowl so the larger granules come to the top and put it back on the surface for more grinding.
Awesome video!
Thank you, sir! 🙏 Mad Love! ❤
Such peaceful life
you should make a domed lid for the cooking plate it would act as a oven (if u make one remember to put a handle on it
Yeah, that's a great idea for sure.
Really enjoyable thank you
Чад вы великий человек. Я мечтаю увидеть как вы кушаете в ресторане, а не жёлуди. Дай Господь вам всего, что вы хотите.
С уважением из Украины, Лейла.
making these the minute i buy my first house, thank you God bless
I love your videos!
beautiful nature
Very entertaining & informative video.
Chad, I'm watching. A basket of delicious seeds for the coming season.
What kind of seeds?
@@ChadZuberAdventures That's right, Chad. Seeds were planted and planted around the hut. Chad tried nursery and propagation.
This was really awesome. Cheers, Chad! 👍🏻👍🏻✌️
I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Looks delicious 😊
These look good.
Nice food bro cool 😊❤
Those look AMAZING! With prickly pear and fruits coming in now I’ll have to dry some fruit and this fall collect acorns and mimic what you’ve done in this video. Awesome job my friend!!!
You'll love them! It really is an easy recipe and very good tasting. Of course, I used black oak acorns which are one of the better tasting acorns.
Today on my get stuff done list - I bought 8 to 10 foot tall pecan trees, been wanting to for a few years and as the saying goes - the best time to plant fruit / nut trees was last year… the next best time is today.
I have a few around and I have acorn trees, so I definitely see this experiment in my future this fall!
Es todo un maravilloso documental ❤
I enjoy watching your survival skills , reminds me of the first Adam ......
good new test ❤
Great Video it Takes Not much to make those Cookies, i learned something new thank you Chad!
Preparing the ingredients is what takes a long time.
bro u been doing this for hella long, respect i wanna try what u do one day and live off the land
he is really amazing
love your videos man, keep it up!
Thanks!
Great video
You are really the king of the jungle, I wish you success and one day Chad, tell me about your experience in a herb in the desert and it got a remarkable effectiveness in your body for the best thing
It looks delicious 😋
Great example of how our ancestors likely made their own sweet foods. If you're looking for a better use for acorn shells, they can be used to make tannins for tanning leather or creating dye.
Yes, I have used them for tanning leather and even yucca fibers.
That was bad a**... I really enjoyed watching you, how cool.
I thought I was the only one who filmed Bushcraft 🧡🤝
There are about two other people that do it too. Haaha!
Вау, великолепное интересное и познавательное видео, таких мало! Спасибо! ❤
Great! I love cooking food that takes a lot of energy -3 days, I think to prepare and has a lot less calories when eaten.. It’s a great way to exercise. It also looks delicious.
Yeah, primitive food preparation is good exercise.
This is new to me ..nice video👍
I really enjoy when you cook, Chad 😁Looks delicious, would love to try acorn dough some day.
You gotta try it!
You are shredded my man, how about a fitness video out in nature ❤
I will. That is in the plans.
@@ChadZuberAdventures sweet
Great and informative video. I admire your work and perseverance. 😀🖖👍
Thank you!
Respect this man 🗿
It's amazing
MUITO BOM👏👏👏 ESTE ESTILO DE VIDA
Amazing Good To Know. Videos Are Very Helpful on Survival keep them Coming.
Thanks
Love your videos as allways :3 🎉😊
Thanks!
I'm loving your videos.
Seeing the acorns brings back childhood memories for me.
As a child it was our job to gather them to feed the pigs.
Mum would tell us not to eat them, she'd say they were poisonous to humans, now I know why. 😁
We have a lot of acorns around here. Gonna have to try this out in fall.
Thanks for making this
Thanks for watching!
Impressive
They look delicious! More receipes please.
More coming!
Brillante.👍
Saya suka melihat video anda ketika membangun sebuah tempat tinggal dari batu bata. Terlihat sangat menyenangkan melihat anda membuatnya langkah demi langkah. Petualangan yang mengagumkan
Good
Top video
If man wanted to live like this, he would not have progressed so much
Keep going❤ so good ❤❤
Epic
So envious of what you get to do! I'm hoping if I keep working for it I'll have the time and resources to be able to just cave man it out for weeks at a time somewhere! Love what you do playboy!
You will get there. Are you up in the Edmonton area?
I always find the concept of going out and living primitively but still having to return to some form of modernity to edit and post the video for us to watch very humorous. It must be fun and surreal while editing to see yourself actually doing this stuff.
Actually I’ve done it so much it’s just a job to me. I don’t really enjoy editing. I love being out in the wilderness but not in front of a computer.
@@ChadZuberAdventuresWow! Cool! I didn’t expect a reply. Thanks for uploading these videos even if the technical aspect of it isn’t as enjoyable as being outside and creating the content.
If you still have shells, they make an excellent mulch! They don't break down quickly, and they're on par with wood chips nutritionally. Hopefully you can use some in your garden!
I will always get more as I continue preparing acorns.
Nice idol😊 shoutout idol from the Philippines 😊
Incredible knowledge this guy has, how do you learn this?
Bro this guy can live 100 years
Him struggling to take off his shirt is such a mood
Woww😳
Te sigo desde años basicamente una parte de mi infancia
Gracias por acompañarme en mis aventuras.
Estoy gozando con tus videos, se que los vives en tu realidad personal, a mi me teletraslada a un sentimiento muy interno muy ancestral que existe dentro de mi. Gracias por llevarme a este estado de memoria y de conciencia Chad.🤠
Viviste en un pueblito antes? Me encanta estar en los pueblitos. La vida es tan diferente y tan sencilla.
En los pueblos hay mas armonía, mas simpleza y mas tribu con los vecinos. Todos sabemos que entre mas grande la ciudad menos tribu, mas infelices y mas compleja. Particularme ahora tiendo aislarme, de la gente algo en mi me impulsa a la autonomía y es por ello que tus videos me impactan fuertemente nuevamente gracias por tus videos y por tu atención Chad.😉
Yum!
I really wanna eat one 😄
