Ramps

Ramps

We moved to our present home last August. Today I said to the wife let's take a walk to a nearby woods as it looks like good ground for ramps. A fifteen minute walk from my door the greens are just coming up.

      I usually give them a light fry in butter/olive oil as a side. Planned on braising some chicken thighs today and will cook the ramps in the pan at the end. Serve with polenta. We moved back to Upstate NY from NH where I walked miles and miles without ever finding any ramps.
