i watched a UA-cam by a Navajo woman processing authentic pine nuts... she roasted them in the shell and the shell was very easy to come off after that... blessed roasting made them more flavor... I try that with these pine nuts... she used an old pan and did not add any oil, however afterwards she had salt.
Oh that's interesting ... yeah not sure I'd bother again with these particular trees as they were really small! If I came across some decent sized ones I might be tempted to have another play though!
I can’t believe all this time I was seeing those seeds (I called them helicopter seeds because of how they fly lol) that they were pine nut seeds! I did know that pine nuts came from pine trees but I had no idea that those were the seeds I’d see all over the ground and flying in the air !
I love finding those! Almost 40, and still throw them up in the air to watch them fly everytime I find them. When I was younger, I threw a bucket of them off of my dad's roof. Super Awesome!
Ussually the ones you find all around are maple flower seeds if you have maple tree around, but now that I know they look very much alike I should be looking under the pine tree for those ones, Thanks for this vídeo I also know that you have to get the pine when is closed/green then let it dry until crack
I learned about pine nuts from the Italian neighbors in the 60's. Love 'em, but now I know how to get 'em. thanks. PS. maybe try drying the cones/seeds by stuffing them into a pillow case, tie it and put it in the dryer.
i may be very hungry by the time i finish getting it out...they look good in the bags...and i respect all nut and seed harvesters greatly wherever they are...
Have absolutely no insight, but NEEDED to say that appreciate your videos and what they teach! Fellow kiwi that found your very helpful video about scaly leg and hooked on further knowledge. Thank you ❤️
We were given a giant pinecone (it was bigger than a rugby ball!) a few years back and all the seeds fell out ... I had no idea what they were - kicking myself now! lol
the stone pines here in the southwest the seeds are as big as almonds. be aware you can use screens or chicken wire with a sheet or something below and toss the cones off to the side. its amazing you went through all that for the small ones there at your place you should use more like mass production methods. snake tongs also work good for grabbing and shaking. for instance outside you could have a bin set up under a chicken wire contraption you can rotate even a small motor and mass produce. you could throw in a few baseballs and get rich selling them.
Yeah we didn't really know at the time how small the ones we ended up with were going to be! More than anything it was a fun experiment with the kids, I don't think we'll be going to the hassle again unless we have access to a different variant of pine 😂
Nonetheless it's a great video.. I have a Senegal parrot who was 31 years old he's always had pine nuts every night as part of his treats with other nuts and seeds and whole grains. And lately they've been too expensive and hard to find especially ones in the shell. The ones for the parrots have to have soft enough shells so that they can open them 6:19 crack them open. Ones from different areas have different hardness and shells and likely different flavor to some degree. I live in the Northeast New England near the Atlantic Ocean what I do for the paris's pick round pine cones up from areas where there's no pollution as I said. There can be no chemicals fertilizers are any exhaust fumes or any kind of contamination whatsoever for indoor Birds they're very very sensitive in my area on the Atlantic coast Atlantic Coast I try to harvest round pine cones of varying sizes from small to large according to the bird size. Long pine cones are not good because they're too sappy only the real ones and they must be dry and they must have those nuts inside the birds love to play with them they picked the disease out from inside😮 I keep a big straw woven container I should say. I have to admit it's we're getting low. I really wish I could get pine nuts in the shell for my Senegal the other birds will eat the ones out of shell their beaks are not strong enough to crack shells of any nuts most of them are special needs and a cockatiels. But even my African Grey can't crack them while he's too lazy let's put it that way but my Senegal loves me to hide them and he forged his father so as I said I wish I could get them locally anyway my intention was to thank you for the video I enjoyed it very very much
Thank you for posting. I found my first unripe pine cone today that fell from my neighbours tree onto our ground. I knew nothing about them so searched what to do with them. I found your wonderful video and learned it's where pine nuts come from. Yesterday I searched how to make your own detergent using ivy leaves. You came up then too but I didn't subscribe. Thanks again, I've now subscribed. Am going to sow what I think is the only pine nut I've found while sweeping up out there. The nuts are seeds so this will be interesting to see how it might grow.
@@CheaperWaysNZ I'm gutted as I accidently threw it away with the kitchen towel if was on so I'm now waiting for the cone to open and then get any seeds that was inside. No sign of it opening yet but hopefully it will. Hopefully they look like that lost seed when it does.
I would try putting a mesh fruit protection bag over a bunch of young cones and just wait and if you collect just the ejected nuts then you know that they are fully dried out for a planting seed. Makes for easy work.
Very good for libido Even if you are 74 or have a complete hysterectomy at a young age early forties very good for dry skin beautiful skin Thank you for doing the video
I just watched a Buisness insider video about pine nuts this could be a industry in NZ, considering how many tree's are grown for forestry, if Radiata produce adequate nuts.. repurpose forestry to gets nut so they're not waiting decades to sell the tree's as timber but waiting a few more decades soo the tree's yeild nuts for generations.
Yeah unfortunately the Radiata we had only produced very small nuts so not really worth it - there are different types of pine trees that produce better though, I know there are some people in NZ that farm purely for pine nuts.
Im pretty sure we used to then dry the seeds with their 'wing thingy' out of the cone until they sort of come apart naturally..the black stuff dries out
I saw those little wings flying around but didn't know they're all pine seeds. Now I know. Thanks a lot , it's really fun to watch your family collecting pinecones.
Cool! I was wondering where the pine nut is at. I got some pine trees where I live. I wanted pine nut but had no clue . thank you for showing me what part is the pi e nut and when and how to get the nut from the pine cone!🦋🌻💛😊
Im not sure where you live but I live in the lower part of Michigan. This state does have plenty of pine trees ( both upper and lower peninsulas of Michigan).🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲💛🌻🦋😊
Very goood, I think , the cazy way things are going peoploids and people might have to take up foraging - perhapd a bit likee the hunter gatherers. thanks for your good happy and natural video
All that time in Georgia in the southern United States with pinecones everywhere and pine trees, I could’ve been a millionaire. Worked 1000 hours a week, but still a millionaire.😂
😢We used to pick it a lot At my grandmother's in our countryside When we were young I'll never forget that. We put it in a hot 🔥 place To open And we shake it off to have pinnut. its Delicious 😋
@@CheaperWaysNZ Good to know all pinecone trees breeds nuts are safe to eat. I live in Washington state with lots of pinecone all year round. Never knew pine nuts came from them. Never knew they were the helicopters I played with as a child too. I love Pinenuts in salads at restaurants. Now I can try next fall and harvest my own. ^_^ I've seen a couple different types of trees with pinecones. They are smaller with most around herr. Some pine trees are like urs but not seen as often where I am. But ill still give it a try
No never thought about that! These are just our shelter-belt between us and the neighbours so we're not actually chopping them down (unless they're being trimmed then we use off-cuts for firewood!)
Have you heard of pine nut mouth? Some pine nut tree species leave a metallic taste in your mouth for days! Did that happen to you with these radiata pines?
Ok for one you need to wait till September then pick the pine nuts you'll get a lot bigger pine nuts then you sand down the ends of the pine nuts take out the meat of the pine nut and there you go. If you shake them when they open up they'll just fall out.
Ah ok that's interesting - everywhere we looked it said around June in New Zealand ... plus I think the trees we have only produce small nuts anyway according to some people - good to know about filing the end down - always up for new tricks, thanks!!
The mature cone containing the pine nuts is ready to harvest ten days before the green cone begins to open. In NZ that is around June. The have a series of tests they can to do to check the ripeness of the cone. The cones can be harvested by tapping with a long pole.
Oh I'm not sure ... I've just been looking it up but can't find anything about the pine nuts from that type ... although apparently all pines produce edible nuts (or seeds), it's just a matter of whether they're big enough to be worth the hassle! Could be worth trying with one and just see if it's worth it 🙂
I bet if you toast them with the little skin on it, after toasting just pup them in a collender with small holes and shake them, maybe rub with hands... it would flake off vwalla... no broken nails. Btw, removing pines from the trees shortens the harvesting time. I use to harvest in the Sierra Nevada mtns... when ppl are picking cones to survive like the Indians, they notice stuff happening. For a big tree those were tiny nuts. You should check out pinyan pine.... search here on UA-cam.... the cones aren't huge but the seeds are about 10x easy the size you get
Great thanks for that info! What we have is the most common type here in New Zealand - we were initially told we could get good pinenuts from them but after a bit of effort & research it turns out although they're edible they're not the best for size!
haha - yes this was more a big experiment for the kids more than anything - would have to get a lot of tarpaulin on the ground under the trees mind you or they'd probably get lost in the pine needles!
Well we are from New Zealand - hence the accent and of course Taika Waititi (who voiced Korg) is a New Zealander - I love Korg so will take it as a compliment LOL
@@CheaperWaysNZ I have had a cold for a few days now and I found some pine cones along the way as I walked home. I found that you can boil them and drink the tea made from the young green cone and it can soothe your throat. It actually helped my throat a bit. Have you tried making medicine from pine cones?
@@CheaperWaysNZ I'm sure it made for some happy and healthy quality family time with the kids. I didn't know pine cones opened up like that in a warm spot and I'm so going to try that myself It would be good if you have an open fire place which you can throw the pine cones into for the fragrance they emit.
Ain't shit special about pine cones that's shit just outside yard debris in America but then again pine is not indigenous to oceania Australia new Zealand matter fact I think they brought the trees there for ship building an construction because non of those come the best in the world Yellow Southern pine I like your video u made with your family I really do
Yeah it was imported here a lot of people don't really like it - generally we just use the pinecones in our logburner 🙂 Certainly wanted to give this a go nonetheless ... the pinenuts were tiny compared to others I've seen (maybe from the type you're referring to!)
Wow you need to learn about your native American history talking like that. Pines nuts here in north America to use native is everything it's how we survived. .. educate urself
Technical not the wrong type as they still produce the pinenuts, but only very small so yes if you want decent sized ones it's not the type to go for! Sycamore have the helicopter seeds too yes ... so much fun as kids to play with them 😀

That's crazy here in New Mexico we only eat Pinon pine nuts. They are much bigger. Never thought to fiddle with regular pine nuts.
A great fun thing to do as a family, thanks for posting.
Definitely was a fun experiment 🙂

I know! I'd been seeing them randomly for years as well - and some huge one too so gutted I didn't know earlier!
I never knew that they were edible lol
I thought helicopter seeds were the type of maple tree at least they are at my house
I love finding those! Almost 40, and still throw them up in the air to watch them fly everytime I find them. When I was younger, I threw a bucket of them off of my dad's roof. Super Awesome!

Oh wow never thought about using the dryer - could be worth experimenting!
Older girl is fearless she went all the way to the top of the tree 🎄!!!😯
Oh I know she freaks me out! lol
I always wondered where they came from. Thanks for making this video!
You're welcome! Certain quite a bit of hassle I can see why they charge so much for them!
i may be very hungry by the time i finish getting it out...they look good in the bags...and i respect all nut and seed harvesters greatly wherever they are...
haha - yeah you wouldn't want to be stranded in the forest and starving for a quick feed!

Wooooow. 30 years of these 'winged' seeds landing in my yard, and it never occurred to me that those were the pine seeds.
I know - I didn't realise for years that's was was in them! 😂
i think there are several types of trees that makes those winged seeds..
Thank you for the informative video.
God bless your family!
Thanks so much for the feedback 😊
Thank you! Another video shows a women extracting them from Pine Cones that are already open. I tried, and got nothing. Thanks to you, I know why.
Glad I could help!

Hi have you heard of the mitlieder fertiliser it’s a micro nutrient fertiliser it might produce bigger and more if you could get your hands on some

The seed must fly before touch the soil ir est 💕
Maybe you put them in water a ferment the wings off like you do with other seeds before you store them for the next year
Oh good idea - might try that next season!
Try letting the seeds fall instead and pick them. Less work :-)
haha - yes this was more a big experiment for the kids more than anything - would have to get a lot of tarpaulin on the ground under the trees mind you or they'd probably get lost in the pine needles!
Do green pine cone have seeds i wanna grow them
Yes they do, but you need to let them dry and go brown before you can collect them
@@CheaperWaysNZ thanks i wanna follow if u r regular on UA-cam
Can you eat them raw?
Yep we didn't toast ours 👍
If they would've left the trees alone a long time ago this world would be more beautiful than it is now and they wouldn't be able to find us either
Far too many people chopping down their shelter-belt trees around where we are and then needing big irrigators - such a shame!
you should have filmed when it opened
I know - should have done a fast-motion type video! (things I think of after the fact!)
No wonder it cost so much. It is the labor !
Yeah certainly not a process I'd be doing every day!
They all sound like Korg
Well we are from New Zealand - hence the accent and of course Taika Waititi (who voiced Korg) is a New Zealander - I love Korg so will take it as a compliment LOL

Those kids make better doors than windows.......

Definitely - especially then they're little like ours!
Starts at 3:30
I've put chapters in so people can use the scroll bar to get to whichever point in the video they want to get to - thanks for this 😊👍
If you eat them pine trees grow in your tummy. Lol
haha - I'm still waiting for mine ... maybe they're slow-growing!
Waaaay too much work. I would plant the seeds and start a Christmas tree farm :)

Pinon pine cones have the bigger nuts.
Oh good to know ... just looked them up and doesn't look like they grow where I am - thanks for the info!
Now know. I mean its obvious where they would of come from. But, Never would of known.😁😁 Hmmmm.
Yeah it took us a while to actually get around to having an experiment!
If you roast the raw seeds you can crack them in your mouth like a sunflower seed.
Ohh didn't realise that - thanks for the tip!

Way too long winded...useless video.
Thanks for the feedback, always helps for improving future videos 👍
helicopter seeds in nz are from sycamore and yes these are the wrong pines for pine nuts
Technical not the wrong type as they still produce the pinenuts, but only very small so yes if you want decent sized ones it's not the type to go for! Sycamore have the helicopter seeds too yes ... so much fun as kids to play with them 😀
