Nettle salad
Description
Minimum effort — excellent result. To prepare nettle for the salad, simply pour boiling water over it or immerse it in a pot of boiling water for just one minute—no longer. This preserves the vitamins and removes the "sting." Later, you can use this water to rinse your hair, which will strengthen it and make it silky. Be sure to drain the nettle thoroughly in a colander or squeeze out the moisture by hand, then chop it, add fresh herbs and eggs, and taste! I usually dress the salad with sour cream or a mayonnaise and sour cream mixture in equal proportions. Serve immediately.
