There are many plants known as sorrel. They all share a similar lemony flavor which is fine to eat in smaller quantities. That said, there are reasons to be cautious about eating too much oxalic acid - which is what makes it so delicious. In this video I’ll talk about these 5 types of sorrel, why they should be eaten in moderation, and the ingredient some people believe makes oxalic acid more edible.

We use wood sorrel with fish and chicken dishes. Just toss it in the pan with a little butter and add the fish or chicken. Can also be used with veggies as well to add a nice lemony flavor. Makes a lovely tea and if you like it can be turned into a nice syrup as well. Just avoid eating it to often if you have issues with your kidneys particularly stones.

It’s good I’ve been eating sorrel soup all my life and I’m not dead 😂 but best way is to pour it into chicken soup I guess , with cream as u said

I just made red veined sorrel chips, just like you make kale chips! Not too bad. It's still a tad bitter but an interesting flavor.

Red vein sorrel grows wild here in Virginia (in large quantities). Do you have any recipes that work for it?

I'm not a fan of the red veined variety, sadly, except as an ornamental. So no, I don't 😕. It's the toughest of the cultivated varieties. The upside is that this may mean you've got great soil for French or garden sorrel! ☺
