are they edible? Should they be cooked?
Jews ears are edible but by most not considered worth it - although I've never tried. One technique I heard was dry them up, grind em down and add them to soup. There's loads in the wood we go to.
jews ear is a good flavor carrier and fill your soup
there not bad if you use some nice herbs to flavor them
but dont eat them from oak because of the tannin in the oak that will go in the mushroom
personally i only eat them when they have a nice reddish/brown colour not when they became blackSo Beech should be ok....
Anyone know about the others...
