They are the same. You can find it here: http://www.giverecipe.com/manti-recipe.html Or you can also use another borek dough, which I use for su boreği(boiled borek). This dough is a little harder than the other, so you may find it a bit difficult to roll it out. You decide which one to use.

You might try looking up nettle forrage on google, or contacting the national park bureau and ranger stations. Those rangers would well know where to find the nettles. : ) Toni nettles are found all over the U.S. in mountains, by streams, high desert…all kinds of areas.

I was inspired after I cooked with the nettles to do it again. I agree with gastroanthropogist, some of the foods that we eat now, are surprising because in they're natural states they were not necessarily the most healthy.

On my hands in the kitchen and all over my feet when running around outside with no shoes on. It is so painful - but so worth it. I just need to be more careful when touching it. Its amazing how the plant packs such a powerful painful punch. I’ve been pricked with stinging nettle multiples times.
