Nettle *Tops* are the things to go for. In Spring, when bright green in colour. You hit the hedgerows with two bags on each arm. One used to grasp the tops from inside the placcy bag. The other to stuff full of greens. Saute green tops in butter - or put in colander, rinse and bung in pan to steam in own moisture. Eat like Spinach (which means to me, bung a poached egg on it!)
