Solved Is this Hogweed?

In the winter it can get Jew's Ear fungus growing on it.

So named as Judas was said to have hanged himself from an Elder tree after denouncing our lord Jesus Christ

Must have been a short bloke, elder don't grow tall enough to top yourself from

Stew the fungus in milk for 45 minutes with sea salt and cracked pepper

Tastes like boiled rubber

 

I thought Judas hung himself from the Judas tree.

 

I stand corrected, story i was told was a load of bolllocs then

Judas Hung Himself on a Redbud Tree

 

Any ecclesiastical stuff, just ask me Zigs

 

Thank you Father Pete

That would be an eccumenical matter
