 Slytherin by heart
"Personally? No. I've merely studied them. Acorns, that is. Much the same as anything else." Who was this one again? Goodness... At one time he knew all of the staff. What happened to those days? He took a sip of his coffee before setting the cup down. "However, my parents never prepared them, and I had no reason to myself. When time is short, you stop experimenting with foods, as there is little time to do so."
He looked over to Dumont with a hint of a smirk... really, the last of his true smiles anymore. "It depends on the type of acorn, but most contain bitter tannins. However, this are easily removed and it can be turned to flour, or the acorns themselves can be baked. They actually have a high nutritional content and are a fairly oily nut."
