STINGING NETTLE // Harvesting Tips // Making Nettle Soup & Wild Weed Pesto

Описание: This is a short video of me harvesting stinging nettle in my backyard. It's one of the most abundant and nutrient packed wild foods around! For some, it is the gateway plant to wild foraging and herbalism. It grows all over the world, and is easy to harvest, especially with gloves and a pair of scissors.

You can make yummy foods out of it like nettle soup and pesto, sometimes I just sauté it in a little butter and it's delicious! You can also make medicine out of it by brewing an infusion (herbal tea) and covering with alcohol for a tincture. When I have a lot, I either dry it by hanging it all over my garage, or I blanch and freeze it to throw into cooked foods throughout the year! I even snuck it into some desserts this year like cookies and raw cakes! It gives everything such a beautifully vibrant green color!

Stinging Nettle is a highly nutritious wild food and medicine that has been used for centuries. It is rich in protein, iron, zinc, calcium, silicon, copper, magnesium, potassium, manganese, chromium, vitamin K, and vitamin C!

Thanks for watching! I hope this video was insightful, inspiring, relaxing, or all of the above!
