The sun dried fruit kernels were extracted from the shells, made into a flour and then leached to remove the bitterness. The flour was either leached with hot water, placed in a rush basket and warm water poured over it or placed in a sand hole and warm water poured over it to remove the bitterness. | Sparkman, Philip S., 1908, The Culture of the Luiseno Indians, University of California Publications in American Archaeology and Ethnology 8(4):187-234, page 194 |
