Quick Answer
After leaching, make acorn soup by boiling the acorns with water and a pinch of salt, then blending with additional water, and finally straining to remove any remaining solids and achieve the desired consistency.
Preparing the Acorns
After leaching, boil 1 cup of acorns in 4 cups of water for 10-15 minutes to rehydrate and rehydrate any remaining tannins. Add a pinch of salt to the boiling water to enhance the extraction of nutrients from the acorns.
Blending and Straining
Once the acorns have rehydrated, remove them from heat and let them cool slightly. Add 1-2 cups of water to a blender and blend the acorns with the water until smooth. Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth to remove any remaining solids and achieve the desired consistency. You can repeat the straining process multiple times to achieve the desired texture.
Seasoning and Serving
Add any desired seasonings, such as salt, pepper, or herbs, to the acorn soup to taste. Serve the soup hot, garnished with chopped herbs or edible flowers if desired.
