Wild Garlic Leaves or Wild Mustard, Something with a Bite!

Wild garlic is often found in damp woodland, sometimes amongst bluebells, their beautiful white flowers and vivid green leaves are stunning. The leaves have a strong garlic-like smell and once discovered, usually grow prolifically and these are often used in salads and so on. The bulbs are rarely used (unlike Garlic), but they can be eaten. It is usually the elegant pointed leaves that are used. They are delicious raw or cooked and work well in salads, soups and smoothies. (But DON’T pick unless you are sure (the smell is a big give-a-way).

(The season for wild garlic is 3 months – they are gone by June but abundant from late March to June).
Not all areas have wild garlic growing but an alternative wild replacement can be wild mustard (Sinapis arvensis) with its yellow flowers and punchy leaves.
