A to Z of French Herbs - Wild Garlic - Ail des Ours
Wild garlic, also known as Ail des Ours, is a deliciously fun herb to use. Its subtle garlic flavour and vibrant green leaves add a rustic, wild touch to many dishes.
However, the real magic of wild garlic lies in the tradition of "wild picking", where chefs and cooking enthusiasts set out on adventures in the woods in search of this deliciously fragrant plant. This thrilling quest to harvest wild garlic creates an unforgettable culinary experience, combining a passion for French cuisine with the joy of connecting with nature.
But beware as not all plants are the same and sometimes wild garlic resembles in the forest, fields where they’re found other not so good for you plants.
