Sorted Food

A woman in France has made brownies using acorn flour she processed herself, after gathering acorns in her garden with her mother. She describes sorting out undamaged nuts, floating them in water to discard bad ones, and removing the shells before preparing the flour. The post has drawn small but positive attention, reflecting growing online interest in foraging and forgotten traditional foods.

The cooking team Sorted Food has released a video in which a chef reviews unusual kitchen gadgets, with the hook that some devices look like they could not legally be sold. The items are put through practical cooking tests, with the hosts reacting to how well — or badly — each gadget performs. The video has drawn hundreds of thousands of likes from viewers curious about quirky kitchen contraptions.
