I'm glad you enjoyed it! It took a lot of detective work, but I was glad that I finally found a way to get to the bottom of the issue. I can't wait to make another episode on this too. I might have to wait till spring though. Thanks for commenting!
I have not completely tested it out yet, but it is my understanding that you use the leaves and unopened flower buds for tea before it blooms and the flower petals instead of leaves after it blooms. I have tried this before the bloom so far and it produces a nice tea. My understanding is that with most of these "weeds" the leaves go bitter once they flower.
I understand that gluten free recipes can help in understanding how to work with such a flour, but they do nothing in helping someone to make primitive bread in the wild. I explain in further detail throughout this series. This is only episode 1.
extremely excellent. I think it's not easy figuring out how what you figured out, and I think possibly your you-tube is the only source of information showing how to make bread from wild plants without using flour from the store. Thank you for the excellent information!
You can get all the starch you want from cattails that grow in the water. You can actually eat the whole plant, but the roots will give you starch if you cut and soak them. You will get the goopie starch like if you cut and soak potatoes.
I love your videos, dude Keep it up! That's true nature education, people don't know how to survive out of city more than 1 day after finishing all high school in these times... What do we call that education? How artificial is the world we created and how distant we are from who we really are. Seeing that still some people are interested in these things gives hope...if nothing else for the survival of some humans. ;)
I resent this a little bit. I'm a city native (Edit: NYC at tht) and homeless and I became an intermediate level forger. I personally think it's way easier to survive outside the city specifically because there's no f****** plants in this Urban jungle that isn't tainted by s*** or pesticides or herbicides or smog. Surviving inside the city with no money is exponentially harder.
Is it possible to eat wheat or rye growing in a field? I'm in ND and I'm curious if I was stranded in middle of no where ND, could i ran to my nearest field of wheat (literally surrounds you) and survive off of it if I needed to?
you can find wild yeast/symbiotic lactobacillus on a lot of plants. you can make an excellent sourdough starter using the old-fashioned greek method, which is a basil tea. mccormick's spice basil does just fine if you're not growing any. i've also made sourdough starters from my lavender.
I'm sure there was at least a small amount of yeast on those golden rod flowers as there's wild yeast all over the place or something. If you use any kind of grain there should be gluten in it but flowers are mostly useless
Before wheat/flour got to New Zealand, Maori used to harvest cattail pollen to make something bread-like. (The local name for cattail is raupo - I guess Google will find more info if anyone's interested.)
Try using seed from Madia elegans--incredible scent and flavor, quite powerful, but tasty. Egg whites, if I'm not mistaken, were used by the Northern CA indians to make flour as well as a spice.
LOL this video is great!!! when you gave the description of the goldenrod bread, and showed you flipping it, it made me laugh so hard. the hardest I have laughed from a yt video in a long time. props man. and very informative video. very good. and those are cattail roots right?
The term "flour extender" is a beautiful term, I'm bringing it into my Food Research and Innovation lab next time I'm in! Goodbye coffee flour, hello coffee flour extender! (that was the worst & so the only one I remember, but I have my notes somewhere)
Your so called binder is just "plant protein". The protein in wheat is called "glutin". The protein in rice or corn is not called glutin. I suppose any protein rich plant can be dried and grind to make it into some kind of flour although it may not have the texture you expect (definitely not like wheat bread).
there was this writer jane auel who made an extensive research about primitive peoples [neanderthals] and her main character used cattail roots for flour!
Okay I don’t know what I’m talking about but isant lambs quarters a kindof grain so I should be a soft of flour since it’s related to qounwia which is a grain
flour is made from berries, wheat berries, oat berries, rye berries, etc. thats what you need to find if you want to make bread, typlically in the grass family, other things can be made into flour but it has to have a few base things, and im pretty certain having an endosperm is neccesary to becoming flour.
I enjoy goldenrod tea even more than Lipton or the name brands! U may have gotten a batch that an animal peed on. 😂 I always wash mine first & then hang to dry.
Hey man, I think you would have had a better shot at flour if you dried it out and used a pestle and mortar to turn the flowers into a more powdery substance
look into gluten free bread recipes they will help alot ... there is alot of recipes for gluten free food cause of the intolerance to gluten some people have
Learn the chemistry of making regular bread first, and it makes it easier to decide what you can make from random edible plants. Really, any starch will work - beans, seeds, grasses, some roots.
#1 failed attempts at primitive bread making is the, "grind", pun literally intended, not fine enough, not long enough. #2 is your, "culture", pun intended literally. It isn't something you do everyday, your yeast has not been established.
Hi, although I am a botanist, I am not able to identify the species (I am from Czech republic in Europe). It will be great to add latin names (titles or list in comment). First is Solidago, but which species?

The Outsider glad i found someone doing this. Also, can rice flour be a substitute for a wheat flour?
Thank you! I've already posted the 2nd episode, and I'll be releasing the 3rd & final one should be released next weekend (Oct 12th, 2013).
Please do more wild edible videos it is very educational
The secret to golden rod is to avoid the fluff. You have to pick and dehydrate the buds, before all the flowers have blossomed.

I like that you tell when it goes wrong as well. Important info. Nice one.

Acorns, Hickory Nuts, Dandelions, and few more Wild Nuts can be used as Bread, they contain Gluten or just add them together.
I love your videos, dude

Thanks for watching!
Those wildflowers and bees are amazing!
what about grass... if you gather a lot of grass flowers that contain grains like wheat, can you make flour out of them?
I always walk the other way when I spot goldenrod! 😆 Thanks for the video!!
ive heard the white powder on quaking aspen has enough wild yeast in it to make a rising dough. might be worth looking into! :)
IngeniousOutdoors Hmmm interesting! Although, I don't think that species of tree is in my area.

Great videos! The indigenous people from my area traditionally ate wild rice as their main starch instead of bread but after colonization made bannock

Very interesting. Looking forward to more.
I was curious about his very thing, so I looked it up and here you are, thank you for your valuable research :)

That was very funny when you tasted the Goldenrod flower and you said it tasted like dried manure LOL
I hope you've had the chance to try acorn bread.

Ha ha yeah my goldenrod flour was pathetic. And yes, those gross-looking things are cattail roots.
What would be the top 10 foods would you teach a child that would be safe to eat? Looking to teach some Girl Scouts some survivalist foraging!

after you crunched up the flowers you shouldve let it sit again to evaporate more moisture

*Gluten
If you grind flax and soak it in a bit of water you end up with an egg like binder
at 52 seconds into the video is that in burlington just off of plains road
This is excellent 👌 thank you! Been wondering about this.
there was this writer jane auel who made an extensive research about primitive peoples [neanderthals] and her main character used cattail roots for flour!
Jean Auel. Clan of the Cave Bear. I believe the main character was named "Ayla" if I'm not mistaken.

hi could you post a list of all the wild edibles you could make flour with even if its a susitude
Goldenrod blossom tea is excellent with milk and sugar, reminescent of camomile in both taste and effects.
This is amazing. Thank you for making this.
I hope someone like you makes primitive dock bread with just dock flour water and maybe binder. Not sure if dock needs binder?
Have you tried making flour from the Bullrush seedhead?
You can commercially buy golden rod tea, it has specific brew instructions to make it taste better
Goldenrod tea tastes bad but is it healthy tho 👀
What about wild wheat ? I bet that would be easiest to find and use
Amarante seeds, although it's a bit glue like IMO!
You can use acorns too
flour is made from berries, wheat berries, oat berries, rye berries, etc. thats what you need to find if you want to make bread, typlically in the grass family, other things can be made into flour but it has to have a few base things, and im pretty certain having an endosperm is neccesary to becoming flour.
Ray Mears hinted at being able to make bread in the wild. But I dont think he did a full demo.
+Jon Kidd Cool! I wonder if Ray makes his bread in a similar way. It's too bad he never fully showed how he did it.
+OutsideFun1 ray needs to go way more pop. he is the best out there. btw in really wanted your bread to work out hahahha
might try arrowroot starch or potatoe starch or even acorns
You could use a food processor to grind flour
hey bud, just curious, where are you located? North east us?
WEBSMART Films Actually Ontario.
You couldn't spot that Canadian Accent?
I think that Golden Rod tea is usually made from the flowers not the leaves.
Ground flaxseed and chia seeds soaked with a little water can acts as binders,
Eat fried manure often? Do You? Just wondering about the reference. Lol
I enjoy goldenrod tea even more than Lipton or the name brands! U may have gotten a batch that an animal peed on. 😂 I always wash mine first & then hang to dry.
Ew 🤮
almond, coconut, flaxseed flours all make really good bread
Almost 10 years later and I'm still reliving this exact failure... Maybe we should think about the naming suggestion he gave 😥
Hey man, I think you would have had a better shot at flour if you dried it out and used a pestle and mortar to turn the flowers into a more powdery substance
i had the same issues trying to find ways to make primitive bread
One of the funnier commentaries
yeah pollen but you also add flour. now that you think of it.
I thought you make flour with dried out seeds. 🤔
Ive heard taro root makes a paste thar can become a dough. Idk if its true. Thats why im here
should have gone for amaranth also known as pigweed or lamb's quarters.
Yes ! Amaranth makes the best flour and it is so yummy. Easy to make as well!
Bread rise up, let’s get this gamers
🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
Rice is the only thing I know of where you can make it into a bread and it's gluten free.
Me watching: Oh tea, I have goldenrod in my garden oh wait he said it was terrible damnit... xD
look into gluten free bread recipes they will help alot ... there is alot of recipes for gluten free food cause of the intolerance to gluten some people have
Not gonna happen,its not made from flower but the starch of grain or root,you have to filter from the root tho!
Acorn flour.
Miriam Cooper I was thinking that too!
Wild Mushrooms?
Learn the chemistry of making regular bread first, and it makes it easier to decide what you can make from random edible plants. Really, any starch will work - beans, seeds, grasses, some roots.
Try baking it into a granola mixture
I got a stuffy nose watching this.
5:03 yesssss
Flower does not = baking flour
Acorns...
Dried, ground up cattail roots is most likely what his binding agent will be in next video
hmm... thats different
yup, egg needed.
You should found a nest and took the eggs and used them
Accorns
It's just a case of great minds thinking alike. lol
Two words
Grass, seeds.
Man-made binders sending everybody and their families to the hospital
Melk.
♡
Grind the seeds more next time
2:49 lmao
literally a banana and some oil my guy

There is a way you can make yeast with honey
Thank you for wasting my time ❤
