Time 45m

Yield 5

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 pound stinging nettles
2 teaspoons salt
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 white onion, diced
¼ cup basmati rice
4 cups chicken broth
salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil with 2 teaspoons of salt. Drop in the stinging nettles, and cook 1 to 2 minutes until they soften. This will remove most of the sting. Drain in a colander, and rinse with cold water. Trim off any tough stems, then chop coarsely.
  • Heat the olive oil in a saucepan over medium-low heat, and stir in the onion. Cook until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the rice, chicken broth, and chopped nettles. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the rice is tender, about 15 minutes. Puree the soup with an immersion blender, and season to taste with salt and pepper.

Pasta with Stinging Nettles image

Spring is the time to use stinging nettles. They make a superb pasta sauce. Do not cover the pan when cooking them-- a little trick so they retain their bright green color.

Categories     Pasta and Noodles     Noodle Recipes

Time 40m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 8

¼ cup chopped walnuts
10 ounces whole wheat spaghetti
½ pound fresh stinging nettles
5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon fresh squeezed lemon juice, or more to taste
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
2 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan cheese, or to taste

Steps:

  • Toast walnuts in a small skillet over medium heat until lightly browned. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook spaghetti in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 12 minutes. Drain.
  • Wearing dish gloves or disposable gloves, rinse nettles under running water to remove any dust or dirt. Cut off all the thick main stems.
  • Bring water to a boil in a large saucepan. Drop nettles into the boiling water and cook, uncovered, for 2 minutes. Drain and rinse immediately under cold water, then drain again. Squeeze nettles gently to remove some of the excess water; they can be a little bit wet. Transfer nettles to a cutting board and chop.
  • Heat 3 tablespoons olive oil in a small skillet. Add garlic and cook until fragrant and translucent, without browning, 1 to 2 minutes. Add chopped nettles and cook, stirring, until heated through. Drizzle with lemon juice and season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat and mix in remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil.
  • Toss with pasta and serve with grated Parmesan cheese.
