Fresh Nettles...!

Nettles are an ancient ingredient, the, 'nettle pudding' has been recognised as the oldest pudding in Britain, dating back to 6,000 BC.

Harvested in the spring time, they can be added to many dishes without changing the flavour, and have a verdant, spinach-like flavour. Nettle leaves can be prepared to squeeze out the moisture and toss them with a little cream for a tasty side dish, or you chop them roughly and add them to an omelette, risotto and pasta sauce.
