Edible Uses of Chestnut: Seed - raw or cooked. Eaten raw, there is a distinct astringency, especially if the fleshy inner skin beneath the outer shell of the seed is not removed[K]. When cooked, however, and especially when baked, the seed becomes much sweeter and has a floury texture[K]. It then makes an excellent food and can be used as a staple food in much the same way as potatoes or cereals[K]. The skin (or pellicle) of the seed is easily peeled. The seed is low in fats and oils but high in carbohydrates. A nutritional analysis is available. Medicinal Uses of Chestnut: Antidote; Astringent; Stomachic. The burrs (seed cases) are rich in tannin and are astringent and stomachic. A decoction is used in the treatment of diarrhoea, uncontrollable nose bleed, dysentery, regurgitation and profound thirst[147]. The flowers are used in the treatment of scrofula. The stem bark is used to treat poisoned wounds whilst the stem sap is used to treat lacquer poisoning. Other Uses of chestnut: Fuel; Tannin; Wood. The bark, leaves, wood and seed husks all contain tannin. Wood - hard, strong, light. Used for fence posts etc. Coppiced for fuel.
