But gardeners don\u2019t need to throw in the towel in frustration. Once you know its benefits, the ground elder quickly transforms from an enemy into a friend. One way to deal with ground elder is to eat it.<\/p><h3><strong>Medicinal Herb<\/strong><\/h3><p>Fans of raw food and wild herbs love ground elder as an aromatic highlight in salads, soups, and as spinach, since it tastes similar to parsley. The herb is ideal in the spring in smoothies or as a seasoning for vegetables. The young shoots taste best, and the older the plant, the more bitter the leaves. Ground elder is also a strong remedy for many common ailments, especially rheumatism and gout. Known as &#8220;Goat\u2019s Foot,&#8221; it is rich in potassium and supports the drainage and elimination of uric acid in the body, which is why it is often used to prevent bladder infections. For a bladder tea, pour \u00bc liter of hot water over two tablespoons of crushed ground elder leaves. Let it steep for five minutes. In addition to potassium and copper, ground elder also contains vitamins A and C, as well as iron. For this reason, it is also recommended alongside nettles for spring fatigue.<\/p><h3><strong>Emergency Helper<\/strong><\/h3><p>Ground elder is also useful for mosquito bites or sunburn: simply crush the leaves lightly with a stone and apply them to the painful areas.<\/p><h3><strong>Identifying Ground Elder<\/strong><\/h3><p>Ground elder can be recognized by the three sets of three leaves on each stem. It has toxic look-alikes like hogweed, cow parsnip, dog parsley, and the toxic spotted hemlock. When you rub its leaves, they smell like parsley.<\/p><h3><strong>Recipes<\/strong><\/h3><h6>Ground Elder Smoothie<\/h6><p>Ground elder can have a laxative effect, so start with a small dose, which can then be increased.<\/p><ul><li><p>1 handful of ripe raspberries, blueberries, or strawberries (combined)<\/p><\/li><li><p>1 banana<\/p><\/li><li><p>1 small handful of young ground elder leaves.<\/p><\/li><\/ul><p>Wash everything, blend with a mixer, and add the desired amount of water.<\/p><h6>Ground Elder-Nettle-Dandelion Pesto<\/h6><p>Ingredients:<\/p><ul><li><p>2 large handfuls of ground elder leaves<\/p><\/li><li><p>1 large handful of young nettle leaves<\/p><\/li><li><p>1 large handful of dandelion leaves<\/p><\/li><li><p>120 grams of pine nuts or almonds<\/p><\/li><li><p>200 grams of grated Parmesan<\/p><\/li><li><p>2 chopped garlic cloves<\/p><\/li><li><p>250-300 ml of extra virgin olive oil<\/p><\/li><li><p>Salt and pepper to taste<\/p><\/li><\/ul><p>Preparation:<\/p><p>Toast the pine nuts or peeled almonds without oil, let them cool, and crush them.
