- Brután Neantóg means brután that was made from nettles. The people of the olden times used to make it.
They used to pull the nettles and boil them in water. When it was boiled the people used to put it into plates and drink it.
They used to say that if a person drank brután neantog three times in March he would not get any sickness on that year.- Collector
