How to Use Nettles
1. Nettle Tea: One of the simplest ways to enjoy the benefits of nettles is by drinking nettle tea. You can make this by steeping dried or fresh nettle leaves in boiling water. This herbal tea is not only soothing but can be a great addition to your daily routine.
2. Cooking with Nettles: Young nettle leaves are excellent in soups, stews, and smoothies. When cooked, nettles lose their sting and can be a delicious substitute for spinach.
3. Nettle Supplements: For those who prefer a more convenient form, nettle supplements are available in capsules or as extracts.
Preparing Nettles Safely
When handling fresh nettles, it’s important to wear gloves to avoid their sting. Boiling or sautéing nettles will remove their stinging properties, making them safe to eat.
