Ah, nettles -- one of the most wonderful vegetables. Cream of nettle
soup is just an absolutely marvelous thing. How unfortunate that you can
only have it for such a short time -- the plant gets too much silica
later on -- and I'm always too busy in the Spring with gardening to try
freezing or canning a big lot of it for later.
Nettles, Morels, Ramps, and Asparagus -- I can hardly wait.
