Walnut leaf?

[GaryBeaner]

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.

Stick with eating the nuts, much nicer! :)

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.

Just done a bit of a google on walnut leaves. Interesting but don't take my, or their word for it.
