This is another attempt to lure my audience to the great outdoors, even if that is just your own backyard. Garlic Mustard is still young and tender.
Garlic Mustard pesto is the perfect companion for pasta. I simply eyeballed all the ingredients and processed them in the small processor.
Several weeks from now, this wonderful spring delicacy will not be as tender as today.
Happy foraging!
Spring seems to finally settle in, and it is time to forage some wild plants for the table.
If you like hiking in the woods and are interested in the wild edible plants, or just have a large backyard, you might have this wonderful plant within your reach.
I want to introduce to you one of my favorite edible wild plants. It is called Garlic Mustard (lat. Alliana petiolata) for a reason: it has a mild garlic and mustard flavor and is very beneficial for the digestive tract. You may find volumes of information online if you want to learn more about it. I simply share my inspiration with you.
Garlic mustard is an excellent source of vitamins. You may add young tender leaves to salads or use them for sandwiches.
Get to know this wonderful plant and be creative in your cooking.
Good luck and happy foraging!
