  • When I was a kid my grandma used to make stinging nettles risotto or gnocchi but you can pick and use them for so many other things, at any time of the year. The seeds are known for the energetic properties and I can’t wait to pick some.
    NETTLE LEAVES PESTO 🌱🫙
    * One colander full of freshly picked nettles
    * 1/2 x cup pine nuts
    * 1 x cup of vegan hard cheese grated
    * 2-3 x raw cloves of garlic
    * 150 ml of olive oil
    * 10 ml of lemon juice (optional just to keep the colour bright)
    * 1/2 teaspoon of salt
    * 1/2 teaspoon of pepper
    🥣 PREPARATION
    -blanch the nettle leaves for 2 minutes
    -place in cold water with ice
    -strain and press with your hands to remove as much water as possible
    -combine all the ingredients and blend until smooth
    -store in an airtight jar in the fridge
    NETTLE ROOT TINCTURE🌿💧
    * nettle roots
    * 100 vodka
    🥣 PREPARATION
    -soak the roots in water depending on how much dirt they have and wash them properly with a small brush
    -let dry for 3-4 hours on a towel or dehydrate with a dehydrator or sunlight
    -chop in small pieces of 1cm each
    -fill half of a jar with roots and the rest with vodka
    -shake every day
    -keep in a dark place
    -will be ready in about a month
    NETTLE STEM STRINGS🧵
    -remove roots and leaves
    -flat out the remaining stick
    -open it in half and remove the woody part
    -you’re left out with the fibres
    -pull them apart usually they should be 4 but even if they are more or they get broken and are shorter that will work out anyway
    -now you can twist all of them together and create a thicker string or leave them as is
    -they are good to use fresh or you can hang them on a rail to let dry

But I did find somebody in the neighborhood who never touches his front yard. He said I could do anything I want there so I've taken over that space even though it's really late in the year I can still get some. Greens out of it. And if for some Horrible reason i'm still here next year the garden will be a good shape to start early. I have some of the best seeds that anybody could ever want. I can start them early if need be. Let's hope it's in my own place though. Again thank you for caring there is nobody left to do that around here.

      You can use the tincture diluted in water as it helps for many things. It could potentially improve hair regrowth, anti inflammatory, improve your vascular system and much more. However, like many other things which are not owned and commercialised by big pharmas, there are not enough studies to prove this claims.

    As a east european child, I can remember two things about nettle: 1 is nettle borscht (traditional slavic beetroot soup, but with nettle greens - so delicious!), and secondly - hitting nettle bushes with a huge stick as a form of countryside entertainment for kids 😂

    fun fact! My grandmother's neighbor used to go to the meadows to pick nettles. She lay on them before sleeping and thanks to this she never went to the doctor and lived to be over 110 years old.

    Theres a town in Croatia named after this plant (Kopriva in Croatian). Its called Koprivnica, we bake and make all kinds of food from this plant, its amazing. From tea, soup to even beer. Also you can use it to spray other plants against bugs by leaving it in water for a few days, but it stinks a lot. When I was little my dad used to say if i get stinged by kopriva and it hurts it means you are very healthy and will stay that way. The plant is really useful and amazing!

    When I was a child, my father and I often went to the forest and he taught me to rub the young leaves of a stinging nettle between my hands and eat them. Very delicious
