Quercus Oak

[HICHAM_T2]

I had to Google that Quercus name, it's just a Acorn which pigs like to have a munch on if I remember rightly from my younger years living in the UK.

Best of luck eating them as they were bitter as all sh*t from my attempts at trying them as a kid.

and finally eating untreated acorns if you were daft enough would cause kidney damage. from a survivalists web site.

Acorns can be made eatable by crushing and then leaching in running water for a full day or so. dried on a hot flat stone they can be ground into a flour or just mixed into a paste to season and bulk up a soup or stew.
If burnt, they can be made into a rather foul ersatz coffee, used in WW2 in Germany.
The energy expended in preparing them is almost equal to their calorific value so they are not a good source of food.

each to their own but i will give it a miss. plus they dont grow in shetland so that would make them rather expensive.
