Cheers to Mike and Julia from near Coventry for the picture of some wild garlic growing in their village. “Free stuff from nature!” as they said. That is one brilliant clump of it (above).
We bought some bulbs off ebay a few years ago after we spotted some on a camping trip in Cornwall and didn’t really know that much about it but thought it looked like an interesting plant. It still comes up every year around by the pond.
Anyone got any good recipes for using it? Mike and Julia mentioned they’ve used it in mango chicken and lamb kebabs, sometimes sprinkled on meatballs and have made garlic butter and garlic bread with it. We’ve found a couple on BBC Food here but we’d be interested if anyone out there knows more uses for cooking with it. Sounds great. Ta for the pic Mike and Julia!
