Wild garlic |
Early spring is the time to collect wild
garlic leaves, growing in moist and shady area, these are picked from near a
river. The picking last for 2 weeks, by the time flower stalk comes the leaves are a bit bitter.

The leaves are more tender, shorter and wider than those
of eating garlic. Most commonly they are chopped up, mixed with oil and salt
to serve as a sauce, being raw, is a bit strong for me.

I prefer to stir-fry them until tender, to
supplement the lack of dark green leaves in winter.

Italian friends said that they make
wild garlic omelet.
