Mmmmmmm - Nettles
Tonight we had nettles for tea...
..actually, they were ok. But a bit soggy. I suspect I overcooked them. Will try steaming them next time.

What did they taste like Rich? Look a bit like spinach. I bet they would be nice in a quiche with lots of cheese.
beer tonight rich?
I bet they would taste even nicer with a drizzle of chilli oil and some mashed beetles. yummy!
Did the nettles taste of dog wee wee?
That's the kinda stuff I'll be drinking on The Big Adventure
What kind of nettles are those? We have stinging nettles here (really nasty when you accidentally run through a thicket wearing shorts!). I've heard you can eat nettles but I want to know what they taste like too!
I fell over in a big patch of nettles once as a kid. I want my revenge. Sod cooking them, i'm going to eat the buggers raw! Mmmhahahahaha!
yup. Ordinary garden stinging nettles. cooking removes the stings. Taste a bit like spinache. Had them in a rissotto last nigh. They are very high in iron & meant to be very good for you. But mainly they are free.
Do they sting on the way out?
no fulla - but las nights kebab just did!
