Sweet chestnuts on the menu.
Your own fault! You keep blobbing on the meets - and I am willing and able to bring you up to speed. Ask Matt, we went for a walk and every few yards I was giving him wild things to eat.I really need to get my finger out and learn more about wild foods, very envious of yous that know and do

Let the squirrels eat the nuts then shoot and eat them; saves on processing…..I love sweet chestnuts, I’ve also been harvesting hazel nuts from our little wood. I know that you’re supposed to let them fall but if we leave them that long they’re all gone, the squirrels get fat and we get nothing
Seriously though, fresh hazel nuts that have been shelled and roasted in salt (or chilli and garlic) are unlike anything that you can buy in a packetLet the squirrels eat the nuts then shoot and eat them; saves on processing…..

Nope, they can be opened and eaten right off the tree if you wish. Leaching is probably necessary for acorns because they’re high in tannin but hazel nuts are not.Chilli and garlic sounds good to me Mike Do they have to be leached first ??
I’ve been looking at how to make acorn flour.
You’ve probably enough there for half a small biscuit.Might make biscuits or something
