Put young nettle tops into boiling water and boil until tender.
Sorrel, dandelion, spinach, sow thistle, watercress and lady's smock all may be used. If the more bitter herbs--dandelion and sow thistle--are used alone, change the water after five minutes' boiling.
Drain well and chop finely.
Reheat, adding butter and salt to taste.
