I'm planning on going back up there this weekend to get more ramps. Thanks Christie! Shari, I'm not sure where you're at, but there are edible plants growing in parks all over the place. Just make sure you get yourself a good book or tour guide so you can tell the edible ones from the inedible ones. Katy, I figured they'd get some ramps just when I'd given up, and I agree simple is best. I made a pasta with some ramps fiddleheads and bacon and turned the rest into a confit. Will post recipes soon. Wandering Chopsticks, yea I figured I saved myself at least $100. Plus, it opened up a bunch of new possibilities because budget was no longer an issue:-) Jeff, it's not about living in a large city, in fact we probably have less places to pick ramps than say somewhere in Connecticut, do a search for foraging sites in your area, or just get a book and start looking for your own places.
