You may be familiar with the Stinging Nettle’s prickly reputation, but we’re here to tell you they’re worth it! The plant is covered in tiny hairs that can irritate your skin if you touch them without gloves, but these irritants are neutralized once they are exposed to heat. Simply blanch or saute nettles to counteract their sting, and they’re totally harmless (and delicious). #nettles #stingingnettles
