Harvesting Ramps Berries: A Burst of Wild Garlic Flavor
In the lush spring, we forage for ramps berries, the juicy, aromatic gems that appear just as the white petals fall. Harvested and preserved in oil, these potent berries infuse any dish with an intense garlic flavor.
Foraging for the first nordic spice: Garlic Mustard
Springtime in our woodland garden means foraging for garlic mustard, a plant known for its garlicky aroma and peppery flavor. Easily identifiable, it's a favorite of our youngest forager, Bear. Garlic mustard, or "Løgkarse," is historically significant as one of the first known spices, used in Denmark over 6,000 years ago.
Wild Garlic Porkchops & wild garlic ‘half-baked’ potatoes
Embracing the vibrant flavors of spring, our kitchen became a haven for wild garlic enthusiasts, turning a bounty of foraged greens into a feast. We crafted a meal that spotlighted the robust taste of wild garlic, seasoning pork chops generously with homemade wild garlic salt and pairing them with oven-baked potatoes topped with a dollop of wild garlic-infused butter.
Foraging wild garlic in the spring
In the spring, our foraging excursions lead us to the treasure of wild garlic, known affectionately as "Oniony onion" or by its Latin name, Allium Ursinum, which resonates with our little Bear as "Bear Onion."
