Excellent! It is so rewarding eating foraged food.

I've got a bruschetta on the menu this week using both wild and wet garlic. I just hope none of the guests are on a promise ;-)

What's a ramson, please?

It's wild garlic Boxy, it grows in abundance in our lane.

Wild garlic Boxtops.

It makes a cracking soup too.

Sweat onions and celery add half a CWT of wild garlic sweat it down add stock and simmer, blitz and add cream or if feeling flash some mascarpone. Season well.

CWT Eccles?? As in a hundredweight?

[EcclesCake]

OK, an exaggeration but a good few handfuls....
