A great Spring pick me up!

Time for a spring tonic of Nettle Soup!



Pick the tender young leaves, make sure you use gardening gloves!


Wash the leaves and gently cook in some butter with abit of garlic if you like, potato and stock. Liquidise when cooked.



The leaves of Nettle concentrate iron from the soil and can help in iron deficiency anaemia if the fresh leaves are made into a soup and eaten regularly. The high Vitamin C content of the plant helps the iron to be absorbed.


Lots of interesting facts about nettles here http://www.traditionalherbalist.com/Articles/nettle.html
