Nettle: Mary McCallum
from Next Ingredient Hosted by Next Ingredient
Clinical herbalist Mary McCallum joins us to share her life-long romance with Nettles. Learn all about these potent, spiky spring greens that are so versatile and easy to add to your diet. What's the difference between bear skin and bare skin? What should you bring to your next barbecue? Mary will tell you. Sound note: along with my close proximity to a busy road, Mary lives in an area with inconsistent strong cell service - so forgive our blips and blops during this fun conversation. Visit Mary's Instagram (@sierrarootswellness) and website (www.sierrarootswellness.com). Nettle Pesto: Fresh nettle stems and leaves, olive oil, lemon zest, pepper, salt, fresh lemon juice, garlic cloves, and optional nuts/parmesan. Summertime Tea: ¼ cup dried nettle ( or if you’re in the high desert, use ⅛ cup dried nettle, ⅛ cup marshmallow root) in 32 oz jar, add boiling water and steep twenty minutes or overnight for a stronger infusion. You can add honey and lemon juice! Check out the Next Ingredient website. Take a peek at the blog while you’re there. Maybe you’re more of an Instagram person: @nextingredient.
