Hello there.
Just wondering and hoping for some advice....PLEASE! Just down the road from where i live there's a large Walnut tree. Does anyone know if you can use the leaf which smells beautiful, as an alternative to Bay in a stew kind on concoction or will i end up in A&E?
Cheers all.

Just got a reply from a lady on the facebook wild food group, and she says it's infused with red wine to flavour it......but doesn't say anything about cooking. I think I'll just keep eating the nuts.

That's interesting, would be good to know more.

I think I have just found the most sarcastic answer to any question in cyber space:
