Scouting beaver sign in the hills of Western NY today and noticed that the ramps we're poking out of the ground and inch or two. It didn't take me long to come back with a shovel. My wife makes the best potatoe ham and ramp soup. How about your neck of the woods and favorite way to eat them?

Your breath after a few raw ones and a couple Bud Light is an excellent wife repellant........ social distancing.


Trash your goals and plans for life. Just wing it and you'll never be let down!

Substitute them anywhere you would use onion or garlic. The tops are great in salads, chopped up and added to baked potatoes, soups...
Our ramps are about 4" tall (harvestable but the bulbs are still small).

My wife always greets me with a kiss when i get in from work . The other day i ate a clump raw on the way home . When she got close i grabbed her and planted a big old liplock on her like id been out of town for a month and then held her kissed her cheeks and breathed on her
she was mad threatened to throw my supper to the beagle . Then she calmed down and laughed about it and wanted to know what id been eating

In a foil boat accompanied by a few trout fillets and a pad or two of butter. Wrap tight, toss on the grill. Mmmm good!

NC used to have a political event that featured ramp eating. We said that a politician could not tell a lie after eating a bait of ramps.

Still to early here, this is how mine I have planted in back yard look right now.. Not to much peeking out..They usually show them selves week or two earlier than ones I dug them from in woods.. Couple little wild onions next to them and they always pop first.

The green leaves of the ramps are almost as good as the bulbs.

Made some dip on Tuesday.
The hot dip I made tastes a lot like a buffalo chicken dip, without the chicken.

Made some dip myself after seeing the last post. Soft cream cheese, port wine spread and as much ramps as you like
