Buckboard bacon
« on: March 29, 2021, 06:39:04 PM »
 Buckboard bacon is on the smoker this evening! Eggs Florentine in the morning with fresh picked (and boiled) stinging nettles instead of spinach. Exactly a year ago I had the same breakfast.

 Just a once a year thing for me. An eggs Florentine meal for breakfast and a side of nettle greens at dinner (usually with a ribeye steak). For the breakfast meal I’ll pick a bunch, boil and drain, sauté in butter then stack onto the muffin. For the dinner, pick a bunch, sauté in butter, then serve on the side with slivered sweet onion and diced buckboard bacon. Salt and pepper. Here’s a pic of last years breakfast and dinner.

Hey! I'm not a complete idiot I have parts missing. Though sometimes I wonder.

We do the nettles every spring too. Nettle tea and nettle pesto are big hits here.

So how long do the nettles need to cook/ blanch before they are dis-armed?

Not very long at all. Pretty much a blanching. 30 seconds.
