Dylan,
   My mother used to gather Nettles when they were only a few inches tall 
in early Spring.  She used them to make a soup whose other ingredient was 
diced potatoes.  No particular recipe; she strove to have it appear as 
though there was equal amounts of each in the bowl.  The only added spice 
was salt because the Nettle flavor was wonderfully predominant.
