Ramps, also known as wild leeks, are a type of wild onion that grow in North America during the spring season. Fresh ramps can be used raw or cooked, and are often sautéed, grilled, roasted, or pickled. They can be used as a garnish, added to soups and stews, or mixed into dips and spreads. Ramps are also commonly used in pasta dishes and omelets, and can be used to make a delicious pesto. Ramps are a delicacy that are only available for a short period of time each year, so be sure to enjoy them while you can!
