That was more labor intensive than I thought, but now they are drying. In a few days I will grind them into carob powder. 🤞#gardenstr
I remember my great grandmother used carob in place of chocolate in the early 90s. I hated it!
I also remember my grandma using it around the same time as a health food. (She and my grandfather were homesteaders of a sort. In the early 90s, my grandfather remodeled a 100-year-old, four-wall cabin, transforming it eventually into a large home. He said it would have been cheaper and easier to tear the prior home down and build again, but he couldn’t bring himself to destroy something that had stood so long, and so well. I’m trying to connect to that wisdom.)
