Sounds delicious! We‘re still amazed by the taste of our homemade wild garlic pesto 😋💚

I really want to harvest wild garlic too! We just got a little for 2 meals, I think I know where I can find some 🌿🌱 when the outcome is good, I am happy for ya 😍
Go get it while it‘s not in bloom yet. After it blooms, the taste changes and it‘s much less spicy. And if it‘s got buds, collect them as well. They taste similar and just look great as decoration/garnish on many dishes 👌🏻🌱 We can’t get enough of it, though the processing is quite tedious. But since it‘s only available in spring, we race to fill up our reserves for the rest of the year 😅😋
Thanks, I never harvested wild garlic on my own, so your words are very helpful!🌿 I hope it’s not too late! Last week I were in the woods and found something, it looked like wildgarlic and smelled like garlic. Is there something similar that looks and smells like (wild)garlic but is toxic?😄 because we were absolutely unsure.👀
To my knowledge there are only two plants easily mixed up with wild garlic: lily of the valley & autumn crocus. But if you know what to look for & how to distinguish between them, you should be fine.
