Ramps?
Have you heard of these? According to theforagepress.com a Ramp is a wild leek. The kept popping up during our recent trip. A friend of mine tempuras the ramps at his restaurant in Pine Spruce, NC. The caretaker of the cabin we stayed in up near Buladean, NC came back one day from a hike in the woods, with his family, carrying a bunch of ramps. He gave us some and I sauteed them with some olive oil, lemon juice, salt & pepper, and a handful of almonds I'd toasted before. They were delicious. I'd never heard of them before a week ago.
