There are many ways of utilising wild garlic, one of the main ingredients to creating mouth watering food is simply your own imagination and willingness to go out there and pick your own bundle of wonderfulness.
I will however, reiterate a few important bylaws regarding the picking of wild garlic. Many of our woodlands are privately owned and require permission. I have a number of private woodlandss local to me and the land owners had no objection to me picking wild garlic provided i did not pull out the bulbs and strip pick large areas. If in doubt please check with your local council for woodland ownership.
