Really cool! Now I really need to get a shaker like that and start harvesting our plantain seeds. Thanks for sharing this information! :)

[@pk1448]

Great video, I am just inquiring what the quantity of seeds are used and how long to steep, your video shows them on the plate but hard to gauge 1 tsp or TBSP possibly? I have heard the Native Americans used them for digestive issues and they're work miracles, I just can't find how much to use or take. If anyone knows more please let me know!

[@billyjoedenny]

i think we have lost more knowledge than we know brother. thanks. ..bill

[@sarabethmattis6099]

Wonderful video. Thank you so much for sharing!! How do you store it and how long does it last?

[@conradgallardo9046]

IF you knew what i know about microwave ovens you'd NEVER use them

[@jules-marcdavis6843]

The last one I had given to me broke, now I use my stove and oven just fine, I've l learned to deal without the convenience, though I had a neighbor into medicinal healing say they were ok I've just had a gut feeling about them

I was just about to eat my plantin burgers, but they vanished !!! Turned out my husband thought they were dog poos and threw them out :( I usually go out and graze rarely go to the effort of cooking something. I could survive if I had to even at 63. Liked this video, my efforts obviously did not look the same :) Purslane goes very well with this dish. Is there anyone out there who lives in France that can let me know of a good reference book for europe, especially on leaves? Preferably in french or english. There are no longer the amount of wild edibles growing as there used to be. Also most plants on the videos are from America. I am lucky I am surrounded by pastures, and broad leaf forests. Right I am going to educate my carnivore husband about plantain :)

[@dkulikowski]

Love the salt shaker method. This Summer I started making Plantain Infusions with the fresh plant. I have been using it on rashes and in healing salves. I saved seeds and will be planting it in my gardens for an annual harvest. Thank you for inspiring!

[@billyjoedenny]

thanks for watching, its great to be rediscovering nature and its uses. i also use the mucilage mostly for itchy spots . ..bill

[@billyjoedenny]

the plantain seeds have many uses, the bannock bread sounds interesting . it would be cool to see a video on. thanks bro. ..bill

[@tomritter493]

I onlt wish I could sped a week with elders form my tribe so much to learn never d o it in a week but wow ya ///tom

[@KennethKramm]

Bill, very interesting and useful information.... I new nothing about plantain seeds before your video. Egg substitute. WOW. Amazing. Thank you, my friend. ATB .... ken

[@MidwestWoodcraft]

Great video as always brother! Plantain is a miraculous plant with many edible and medicinal qualities. I haven't had much time for watching or making videos, but that is soon to change.. I'm definitely going to try this this summer. Thanks for Sharing my friend.

[@billyjoedenny]

hey kevin,the plantain /white mans foot, has seemed to follows us though life. generally the cure grows close to the needs.. ..bill

[@GoldenLohan]

first rate education as ever Bill.. cheers. I would never have thought of those uses for the seed. love the oil for frying and mucilage as egg substitute thickener etc.. awesome.

[@VABushcraft]

I'll have to keep my eyes out for a salt shaker now. Great video on the plantain.

[@Hogweed666]

i harvested quite a bit of plantain seed at the end of this summer for experimentation..so far all i've done with them is separated the husks from a handful and then ground them up into a rough flour with a mortar and pestle, then make a kind of porridge out of them... it was alright considering i didn't add anything at all to it. i wanted to test it's taste unhindered. i've got enough to make some bannock and maybe some pemmican.. i didn't think about mucilage at all! thanks for sharing that!

[@survivewithout]

I absolutely love that you are trying these things out. it amazes me the things I learn from others. thank you so much

[@andyroubik5760]

The plantain that I have growing on my property has a more narrow leaf. Is that the same kind, is it just as edible?

[@billyjoedenny]

would love to see a video on the butter, just one more use for the plantain.thanks bro for watching , hope it helps. ..bill

[@billyjoedenny]

yep i found the shaker to be very handy. for making oils, distilling ,steaming,cooking,charing and straining . thanks bro. ..bill

[@billyjoedenny]

bugs and dirt dont hurt, lol. thanks for watching. ..bill

[@NancylynnMaineMadesoaps]

Does the seed have the same properties as the leaf? I make my own Plantain salves. It works excellent on mosquito bites, also anything that goes underneath the skin it just put it on rub it in real good within a day or two whatever I need my skin is out.

[@mystiekmelody8857]

I didn't know that at all. Thank you so much for sharing this information!

[@questioneverything4952]

Do they have to be ripe before you pick them. 🤔 the ones I just picked did not separate from the husk and I tried to open one and the seed looks White

[@oldtimerlee8820]

Spent the last couple of hours watching your video's this morning. (Early riser.) Can't tell you how pleased I am to have found your channel. Yes, saving what has been lost. Although I knew about plaintain, both broad & narrow leaf, first time I've heard what you presented here. Thank you! Thank you, too, for so much more.From a man & his staff to how to make a backpack shovel. Looking forward to watching more, already posted, and those to be upcoming.

[@YuugiArry]

Thank you! I had a lot of seeds I wasn't sure what to do with, decided I'd try this. I've made an infused oil before with the leaves and avacodo oil, but it would be nice to have a pure plantain oil to help with my eczema and add to my soaps!

[@Mikaela777]

You gave me the information I needed after watching multiple other videos. Thank you Bill

[@feltingme]

Maybe we can make plantain see pudding instead of chia pudding. The husks are actually psyllium husk, which ground up into powder is used from constipation or baked into a bread, especially low carb bread to make it stick together. I have large varity of plantain in my garden, so I can gather quite a few seeds in a short time.

[@billyjoedenny]

im in , perfect time to harvest here. touch base ..

[@tomritter493]

hey what a great vid iv ate them but never knew it had so many uses//tom

[@rnupnorthbrrrsm6123]

[@MELISSAJAMESSeagypsy50]

Wonder if you can sprout plantain..and eat them?

[@kullcraven]

Cool lil shaker, plus you can boil water in a survival situation, and even cook in it actaully, so yes a good carry, great job bro.

[@kullcraven]

Hey man great vid, never seen that done. I have read you can crush the seeds and make a plantain butter, used like peanut butter.I have boiled the leaves and ate as greens many times.

[@theicecreammanschannel1639]

cool to know bro. u should be on a nature show bill

[@billyjoedenny]

thanks ken , its just amazing the knowledge we lost about the benefits of the plants around us. thanks my friend. ..bill

[@SearchingNewAdventures]

billy joe denny I barely go to the doctors anymore, choosing to treat myself then rely on the "medical experts", I can't tell you how many times I have saved my time, money and health all by myself then running up to a doctor's office, waiting around "sick people" and catching what they have on top of my personal issue. My grandfather lived to be 98 years old, ate raw onions, dug up this herb and that, the man was a chain smoker, hard working do as he pleased man, heck he had to be tricked to go to a doctor, the only thing he ever had, ged couldn't treat himself was shingles. I believe that was basically because he never bothered to ask for anyone's help to put something on it, which was at that time on his back in the middle where he could not reach. So yeah I am taking to growing my own herbs and doing things he taught me, because going to most doctors these days is just a "guess" with them. I really don't like being a lady rat either for the new generation of "doctors"!

[@Taromovies]

Hi Bill, very interesting, we have alpine plantain around here, have to find out if it works the same way, thanks for this video, take care Taro

[@jarretv5438]

Wow I’m definitely going to try this while camping instead of using butter

[@billyjoedenny]

hey taro, give the plantain a shot. you will like the oils and uses of the oil. .. thanks my friend ..bill

[@EmmanuelMachler]

Really great video Bill, kinda kicking myself I don't watch more of your videos. The educational factor very high. Gonna look for plantain, don't know it well but have pics of the local type. I really enjoyed this video Bill. Cheers.

[@elliottyeomans654]

[@seankmorris]

Hey Bill, love your videos. How much oil to water ratio is there in your demonstration? Very interesting. I'm glad you did a video on the plantain. I have been studying that plant for the last month on the internet and am ready to find some and experiment.

[@billyjoedenny]

hey sean, its just amazing the uses of plants that was not passed down to us because of modern living.....sorry i did not measure the water, but just a half inch or so..it will separate and the seeds go to the bottom. ATB ..BILL

[@sanifordkate]

@@billyjoedenny can you use the green seeds as well as the dried brown seeds?
