Primitive Cattail Basket & Acorn Harvest
Вставка
- Опубліковано 4 гру 2018
- It's November and acorns are in season now so I made a small basket from cattail leaves to collect them. Sadly, there was very little rainfall last winter and most of the trees don't have any acorns. I found a very small amount of acorns on a few trees and discovered that half of them had been infested by weevils. Nonetheless, I will process this small harvest and make an acorn pancake in another video.

Okay so just an FYI. With acorns you need to look for the green ones. They are less likely to be rotten or bug hotels. Once you have a good amount cracking them open to harvest the meat is the right thing to do. You just need to boil them and change the water several times until the water runs clear to remove the toxic tanins. At which point you can allow them to cool and the grind them into a flour. Be sure to have a container you can seal ready to store the excess flour. After making the flour you can turn it into bread by adding a starch and a fat. You can get starch from the roots of the cattails. UA-cam has excellent resources on how to do that.
Excellent information! Thanks a lot! Acorns are extremely scarce this year. Not much to choose from. I'm going to let them leach in a stream for a week then grind them down.
You're very welcome.

The moment I saw that larva, I knew you were going to eat it lol. Great video and great angles. But most importantly, great mic placements. Really good sounds.
Yeah, you know me! Thanks a lot for the comment. I need to find something more nasty to eat.
You look like Tarzan.
I am Tarzan!

Round of applause for yet another fantastic video from Chad Zuber!
Thank you! :-)
Heh. One day Chad's gonna be sitting by the beach making a new basket, when he hears a sound and looks up in time to see a big EMP blast. Pause over the situation, then eventually shrug and calmly go back to his basket weaving... :P
I loved the snake island series when you talked a lot, shared your thoughts, feelings, stories about your experiences. It felt more personal and your voice is calm and relaxing. You should consider doing that again!
This video is very great
One of the best channels ever!
gracias corazon cuidate😄😋😘
This is a great awesome video I like the drum beats.
Pregrunta la bellota sabe a coco
Ho a maní a parte del gusano jajajaja felicitaciones

No es tan gran cosa comer larvas. He comido muchos insectos. Estoy acostumbrado.
Excelentes videos sigue así!
Great skills , 👍👍
Grande Chad saludos desde chile 🇨🇱
That larva looks pretty tasty;)
It actually had no taste at all. Quite boring to eat.

Me encanta este canal, es Muy relajante y educativo :v
Im curious to know what inspired you to live such an adventurous lifestyle!! I love how everything you do resurrects from a natural state of living...I just stumbled on to your videos and am inspired...Im just reminiscing on when I was in Africa and got to stay in the village with my family...it was like an inner wild child sprung up from inside of me!!!! You are seriously like me new inspiration!
Lo de comerse los gusanos...... Uffff😝, olé tú, yo no podría.😉
Que sabrosos son! En realidad no tienen sabor.
Aku suka videomu...best..👍👍👍👍🙏🙏🙏🙏
I hope you make the 500'000 subs in one month
Nicely done. However, I don't think that I could weevils, you are braver than I.
It was so easy and they have no taste at all.
@@ChadZuberAdventures _ I agree.
estás divino👀💙;no se cómo llegue a tú canal pero están geniales tus videos
Hola Chad. Es de admirar como subes a árboles tan altos, etcétera, etcétera. Por cierto quiero una canastita o cesta 👛👈 como esa hecha por tus manos ✋😉👍 un abrazo fuerte. 🤗
Gracias Maria! Voy a hacer más cestas. Quieres una entonces.
@@ChadZuberAdventures claro. Chad es muy bonita.

Сурово с гусеницами поступил. "Ах вы съели мои жёлуди? Тогда мне придётся съесть вас!")
Титров не хватает очень. Классные ролики, но некоторые вещи в упор не понятны.

Saludos y felices fiestas para ti y tu familia.
I think that you can eat acorns, as the Native American Indians used to dry the acorns in the sun, and then grind them up to make acorn flour, when I was in school about 12 years of age we used to go on nature walks in the woods at the back of our playground, looking for acorns conkers and pine cones I used to find beach nuts to they have a creamy smooth flavour, I at one stage found a very unusual tree stump, so I toolkit bk to school with me it looked like a mountain with a mountain at the bk of it,it just kneaded a little help to make it more pronounced, and 3 D effect, as some of the girls in my class loved wood work, and so did I, can't remember what happened after that, loved school ,especially, working with clay, as we had a large kiln,, ps I've eaten dried insects, but could never eat them live like the little grub you ate in this video,they must have an earthy taste. But give me Durian fruit any time fresh or dryer, love it, now I'm used to it .take care I'm sorry or long comment, I just love talking to people,👍👍👍
Yes, acorns can be eaten once they are properly leached of the tannins that they contain. The next step will be to submerge them in a stream for a week, then I will pound them and form them into a little pancake to cook and eat....The grub had no taste at all. It was very boring.... You had a great childhood I bet!
@@ChadZuberAdventures well Chad it wasent always good, but I loved my teachers, they were the best, my head master was a magistrate, he didn't believe in caning or the slipper, but knew how to handle kids that did something wrong,,!! My favouret craft time was working with clay, and recreation swimming,I'm afraid I'm not a very healthy woman now,, lots of things wrong, but try to live each day as it comes,we all have health issues, to some degree, take it easy out there!! You know exactly what your doing and what foods to eat what are safe,, and what are not,,,way ya go👍👍👍
@@angelabarton2551 I love working with clay too! Take care of your health, be blessed!
@@ChadZuberAdventures That's very sweet of you Chad thankyou. And yourself too, take it easy and take care.👍🌟
That larva, I wonder if its the same as the one always lurking in Avocado ? 🤔 thx 4 the info 🤝
💙
Qué guapoo
Great videos Chad, keep it up!
But bro, I was wondering how do you act if your health become at risk due to poisoning or allergy?
I've eaten poisonous plants a few times. It quickly passed. I've had poisonous oak cause an allergic reaction many times. It goes away after about two weeks. I don't do anything special for treatments. It just goes away.
@DARK HUNTER A little talent. God bless you!
He must have the same immunity as I do, I always accidentally breath poison gas from insect repellent or eat expired milk 😁👍
😍
Nice basket! How do weivels taste? I think I would enjoy basket weaving. Especially with your view.
Weevils don't taste like anything. Very bland... Basket weaving at the beach is fun!
It seems relaxing, a fire on the beach would be nice but since it's so cold here I'm always thinking about warmth.
Nice to see you aren't covered in damn tats
I hate tats!
Great little basket, but I reckon you ought to have fried those grubs with a bit of garlic. Greetings.
Why go through all that trouble to fry them when they are already edible raw?
Chad Zuber I’d eat one but not if it’s a live.
Que benção . ❤️🇧🇷sair da Matrix libertação ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
This music is fire 🔥🔥🔥and his vids are awesome low key stoned AF Rn for real this shit captivating af

Hi,chad,is that a dried real gourd which you carry for water all the time.
🥰❤️❤️❤️❤️
Gosh where can I find a detailed tutorial on making baskets??? That was so pretty.
I should make a video on that
I’m curious about what sort of things that u have to bring when u in this situation?
A good knife and paracord will go a long way to serve you.
Aquí a eso se le dicen juncos.
Sou novo aqui
Bemvindo!
@@ChadZuberAdventures Muito obrigado !
This is the reason men should have mucels
What species of oak are you using? They look very different from the White or Red Oak found around here in Indiana....
I found most of the acorns on one species - California scrub oak.

Y do i here like a bigfoot steps
Years later some News reporter will be interviewing him from inside a Bigfoot cave, and Chad retells how he met the future Missus while out foraging for acorns on one cloudy & fateful day...

Why do you need a basket if you have pockets?
Que música 🎵 enfadosa parece del king kong

Hahaha! Yeah, this is San Diego.

Chad, seems you are totally head to live out side the grid... congratlations my friend. Where is it?
This is outside of San Diego in California. One of many places I enjoy foraging and running barefoot.
@@ChadZuberAdventures Seems really amazing!!! Is totaly awesome to see you there, living outside the grid almost in your weekends... and totally barefoot only in in shorts.
@@marcelobarefoot3549 To me this is heaven!
@@ChadZuberAdventures How do your family see your adventures? For sure they are seeing each video...
@@marcelobarefoot3549 Actually only a few members of my family watch my videos.

@@ChadZuberAdventures bom dia tá serto😘😘
I'm adult enough to admit that I kind of wanted to gag at the 9:00 mark; and I get it, protein's protein. Still.
The larvae actually had kind of a nutty flavor and they were quite firm, not mushy at all. They are easy to eat.
Como tem internet ae meu amigo? Kkkkk
Quase todo o mundo tem internet. Algum dia vai ter internet onde quer você anda.
@@ChadZuberAdventures quem dera 😱
@@ChadZuberAdventures vc e brasilero
I guess you should change your short already... try make something like short or primitive undies from nature things... like tarzan
Yeah, they need to be washed but they still work. I had to sew them once. I will later make a loin cloth.
Chad Zuber i see.. cool 😊
Love this guy❤😍😊
наелся?
How old r you?
I'm really old - 46.
@@ChadZuberAdventures That's not old Chad. 40s or even 50s is still young.
отличный асмр
Add some explanation.
Wowww nice basket...👌👌👌👌 but u... u eat larva!!!! 😶😶🤢🤢🤢🤢
Yes, of course, why not? :-)
I just had something of a minor epiphane....for lack of a better word. When one says in this genre of youtube they make a "primitive basket" is it only the material that's used, or the skills employed? What if an indiginous culture's master craftsman uses the same materials, and weaves a beautiful basket. would it still be....primitive? part of me wants to answer yes, either in the "rules" of no modern equipment, like chain saws, and power tools. OR yes, because the material it's self, is natural, and not some kind of synthetic plastic.
But then another idea comes to mind later, the reality, of pesimism. maybe calling it Primitive thing, is just working the algorithms. I've seen plenty of "Primitive survival" videos with asian boys bonking about with sawn, seasoned lumber, that's obviously not hand made, and steel blades, that while roughly formed...also were not made by them. [but I have seen at least one far more legit youtuber smelt, and smith his own iron tools.]
Need a viking woman! take me.😊😊😘
remember to bring sunscreen with ya, skin cancer by that sun is no joke :P
Why do u live in the wild instead of a gym??..
Do you even know what fortnite is
Cant show how to make the basket for showing your muscles.... blah...
