	Unless you live in a very dry area or Hawaii, you will most likely find nettle to forage in your close surroundings: free food costing no land-use nor artificial pesticides, how convenient! Nettle is best gathered 2 times a year: in spring before it flowers (leaves from flowering nettle can be hard on the kidneys) and in autumn if they have been cut back. Pick the top leaves only, they taste better!

This recipe was written and sent by the Delahaye family.

“The nettle is not any weed: with countless nutritional and medicinal benefits, its use in cosmetics, textile, or even in farms as a cost effective feed and fertilizer; the nettle appears to be a universal panacea. Nettle has been put to use for the longest time and has helped to save our ancestors from numerous famines throughout history, thanks to its hight content of proteins<ref>Up to 40% of its dry weight as opposed to 20% for lettuce.</ref>, vitamines, minerals and amino-acids. Being full of nutrients, nettle is an ingredient of choice in the treatment of anemia or rheumatism — sometimes by deliberately applying stinging nettle on one’s skin!”

Jean Delahaye
