[Sca-cooks] Nettles (was viking cook book), rutabegas, mangetout

[Anne-Marie Rousseau]

on nettles....
we eat them all the time up here, they grow wild. harvest them with gloves
and throw them in a cookpot. The heat quickly inactivates the toxins that
make them sting. Nettle soup is a favorite of mine and they're very yummy
in medieval dishes that call for miscellaneous greens, like herbolade, or
tarts.
