Demonstrate the preparation of wild foods in each of the following ways: ==<br /> ===a. Boiling ===<br /> Any of the greens are prepared by boiling.<br /> ===b. Frying ===<br /> ====Clover Pancakes====<br /> Collect about one gallon of clover flowers and let them dry for two weeks (or dry them in the oven at 250°F for 30 minutes and then let them sit overnight). Once they are dry, grind them to powder using a mortar and pestle to make a fine flour. This will produce about a cup of flour. Mix this half-and-half with wheat flour and make pancakes.<br /> <br /> ====Fritters====<br /> *'''Dandelion''' flower heads can be dipped in batter and fried to make fritters. <br /> *'''Milkweed''' flowers can also be battered and fried, but they must be dipped in boiling water for one minute first.<br /> *'''Black Locust''' flowers also make excellent fritters.<br /> <br /> ===c. Roasting ===<br /> See above for acorns, chicory, pickerel weed, and pine nuts.<br /> <br /> ===d. Baking ===<br /> ====Pie====<br /> Delicious pies can be made from blackberries or blueberries. Wild cherries are not really large enough for this, but if you find them in quantity, you might make a go of it.<br /> ====Bread====<br /> Try baking bread by mixing wheat flour with any of the various &quot;wild&quot; flours made from clover, acorn, cattail pollen, or cattail roots.<br /> <br /> ==5. Demonstrate how to prepare four parts of the common milkweed or day lily for food. ==<br /> ===Milkweed===<br /> {|<br /> |[[Image:Asclepias syriaca.jpg|thumb|300px|left|Common Milkweed in flower]]<br /> |[[Image:Milkweed4043.JPG|thumb|200px|right|Milkweed pods]]<br /> |}<br /> The parts of a milkweed plant that are edible are the leaves, stems, shoots, flowers, and pods. The pods must be collected while they are young, and the flowers are not in season for very long. All are prepared essentially the same way, which is by boiling them in several changes of water. Boiling eliminates the bitter, milky sap from which the milkweed derives its name.<br /> <br /> Prepare the milkweed by filling a large pot with water and bringing it to a boil. When the water is close to boiling, fill a small pot with water and bring it to a boil as well. When ''both'' pots are boiling, place the milkweed in the smaller of the two and let it boil for about a minute. Pour the water off and then refill the small pot from the large pot. You may wish to use a ladle to dip the boiling water from the large pot into the smaller one. You do not want to cover the milkweed with cold water as this will set the bitterness. Boil the second batch of water for a minute also, drain it off, and refill. Subsequent changes of water should remain in the pot for a few minutes. After no fewer than six changes of water, the milkweed should be ready to eat. Add a little butter if desired and prepare to treat your taste buds.<br /> &lt;br style=&quot;clear:both&quot;&gt;<br /> <br /> ===Day Lily===<br /> See requirement #1 for information on preparing the '''shoots''', '''buds''', '''flowers''', and '''tubers'''.<br /> <br /> ==6.
