Foraged Ramps encapsulate the essence of spring with their delicate, broad leaves and slender, wild onion-like bulbs. These forest-grown delicacies exude a subtle yet enticing aroma reminiscent of garlic and onion, with tender leaves that unfurl into a vibrant green hue. Often sought after by gourmet chefs, ramps add a unique, earthy flavor to any dish, whether finely chopped in fresh salads, gently sautéed as an accompaniment to meats and eggs, or blended into savory ramp butter or pesto. Their rarity and wild origin make them a much-anticipated treat, enjoyed briefly during their fleeting season.

Store freshly picked, uncleaned ramps at room temperature with their bulbs submerged in water. Use them before the leaves start to wilt, in about 3 days. To store cleaned ramps, wrap them loosely in moist paper towels, seal in a zipper bag, and store in the refrigerator; they'll keep for up to 5 days.
