Rats. I just lost a multi-topiced post. Not sure if it was me or mudcat that was the problem.

Oh well. Won't try to replicate it, but will share what it started with, a recipe that includes stinging nettles that I particularly like. We used to fix this on a grate over a wood coals or on one of those cooking grills on posts common at picnic tables in state parks and forests. It would work fine in the oven or a dutch oven also.

My early dates with my ex were usually foraging hikes in local state forests, or weekend camping trips in the mountains. When we expected to find stinging nettles, we'd bring along a cooler with a couple of chicken breast halves in a cooler, season them with wild onion and/or wild garlic, wrap them in stinging nettle leaves, then seal them in foil wrap and cook them on the grate until tender. Add a good bottle of wine, a loaf of sourdough, and a wild greens salad, and it makes a meal fit for a queen!

PLC, keep us posted regarding how the whitefly issue develops (or hopefully does not develop) with the regrowth of your lupines. What product did you use?
