Stinging nettles?
In article , Bob Smith
writes What do nettles taste like? I assume they must be realy good to want them in your garden. Their flavour when cooked as a boiled vegetable is not unlike cabbage or spinach, but that is only one of many reasons for wanting them in the garden. I use them mainly for nettle infusion to be used as an insect repellent, a plant tonic and a source of soil nutrients, and for organic composting. They also can be used for making very good beers, wines, teas and in salads or casseroles. -- Alan & Joan Gould - North Lincs. |
