Sweet chestnuts!
Tanninerna i ekollon tas bort genom urlakning i vatten.
Ju mindre bitar, desto snabbare går urlakningen. Dessa är
rostade. / The tannins in acorns are removed by leaching in
water. The smaller the pieces, the faster the leaching process.
These are roasted.
Sweet chestnuts (Castanea sativa) are rich
in complex carbohydrates, making them an
excellent food for the winter months. They are
also said to be good for the gut, circulation,
nervous system, attention and memory as they
contain fibre, protein, iron, B vitamins, folic

a gluten-free alternative and do not contain
cholesterol.
I framtiden har vi kanske skogar med inslag av nötträd
så som äkta kastanj och ek, med bete under, så som i
Sydeuropa. På bilderna matkastanj och fjällnära kor på
In the future we may have orchards
with nut trees combined with grazing,
as in southern Europe. Photo: Sweet

the left-over chestnuts and keep the

is done by self-seeding. The plants to
be preserved are fenced off to protect
them from grazing.
