Nettle salad with egg and cucumber
Description
The salad is quick and easy to prepare. Young nettle is very nutritious, so you can often make a nettle salad with egg and cucumber. The salad looks very spring-like in appearance: completely in green tones with bright yellow spots. You can serve this salad with any hot dishes instead of the usual cabbage or cucumber and tomato salad. Nettle doesn't have a strong flavor, so it doesn't drastically change the taste of the salad, but adds subtle spicy notes, making the salad quite unique. You can dress the salad with sour cream, mayonnaise, or a mixture of both, depending on your taste preferences. The salad is ready to serve.
