Apache Acorn Stew

Image
  Here’s a recipe for the  Apache Acorn Stew  that we tasted in delight at the Festival, here adapted to serving 8-10 persons instead of a whole tribal gathering: Ingredients: 4-5 qts (or more) drinking water 1-2 lbs bigger-than-bite-size chunks of stew beef or wild elk meat 4-5 summer squash of whatever you grow (e.g.medium to large zucchini or 8-10 paddie-pan) 8-10 whole corn-on-the-cob (de-husked, broken in half) 1-3 cups prepared bread dough, pinched into ribbons and torn into 2″ pieces (you can skip this if Paleo or use a gluten free bread dough) 1/2-1cup ground Emory oak acorn flour *optional but I used 3 cloves of garlic and salt and pepper to your liking. Directions: Over an open fire in a big pot, boil beef until tender, making a rich stock.  Add chunked/diced summer squash. Keep simmering. Add torn pieces of bread dough and let puff up.  Add whole corn cobs cut in half. When everything is well-simmered and tastes great, and still on the fire, gradually stir in the acorn flour
