Sorrel is not clovers. Sorrel are commonly used in cooking here in Europe while clovers, not so much. That being said, both are hardy and easy to cultivate.

my grandmother picks sorrels on the way home and makes sorrel soup. When I was a kid, i remember we would eat them when we we’re playing outside. We knew where all the crunchy ones had grown and not share with anyone that was unworthy

Sorrel can give you kidney stones. As kids, we were told not to eat too much of it.

    the difference is potency, wood sorrel is literally the reason Oxalic acid is named such and thus quite good at giving you kidney stones.

Ahhh, OK, that’s my bad. I was thinking of some other name for clover. I’ve cooked with sorrel before, it’s nice. Same for clovers, nice lemony flavor.

Thanks for the correction.
