Stinging nettle
📍 Brug 688, Hendrikje Stoffelsstraat 1, 1058 GC Amsterdam, Netherlands
🗓 Season: March · April · May
🔍 When is it ripe?
Harvest only the top 4–6 young leaves in spring before flowering. Use gloves — sting disappears completely on cooking. Blanch, steam, or make into soup. Do not eat once plant flowers (gets gritty). Highly nutritious — rich in iron and vitamins.
Plenty of nettle for soups, salads and smoothies. Good for blood flow and can be used as a replacement for spinach. Use gloves and blanch before use to kill stingers.
