Traditional Flintshire Cream of Nettle Soup

Gather young nettle tops (wear gloves!) and wash thoroughly. Sauté onions and potatoes in butter.

Add vegetable stock and simmer until potatoes are soft. Add the nettles and cook for just 2-3 minutes.

Blend until smooth and vibrant green. Stir in double cream and season with white pepper and salt.

A historic spring vitality soup from North-East Wales.
