Benzito Posted September 30, 2005 Why not do it the traditional Australian way? Is it 'yandying'? That cool circular shaking, and tapping, that seperates smaller and larger particles? Does anyone know what I'm talking about? I don't have my 'bushfires and bushtucker' book with me right now, to look up the terms. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
