foodie moment

This weekend I tried something new, foodwise -- ramps, or wild leeks. They were served sauteed, with a roasted garlic tartlet, and the greens tasted like I'd always hoped that sauteed spinach would -- dark green and bitter, with an underlying hint of sweetness -- but more delicate than spinach usually is.

Altogether excellent, and while the season may be passing for them, if you see them on a menu anyhwere, I highly recommend trying them!

(in addition to being tasty, they're also very high in Vitamins C and A, iron, and dietary fiber)

If you plan to be at BEA next month....
