Roasted nettle seeds

Hello, most people know that nettle leaves can be processed as salad, as tea or as spinach. But now is the time to harvest the stinging nettles.

Please use gloves. One collects the Samendolden from. Then they are roasted with heat, without fat. Always stir once with a fork. So the cores separate from the stems. The stems can then be removed. I then put the seeds in the mortar and make them small. But you do not have to.

The seeds taste wonderfully nutty and are excellent for many dishes. From pesto instead of pine nuts, to potato soup or roast pork. Of course, in small doses. Enjoy the meal!
