For a few weeks in the spring we get ramps appearing in our co-op. They grow in the wild. Here's a description of them from
wikipedia. The onion part tastes kind of like scallion, and the green leafy part has a distinctive, strong peppery taste. I put them on my salad today. I really like them. Caution: don't use too much as they can overpower all the other things in your salad.

If I knew what to do with them I would have bought them at the farmer's market last weekend. I have heard that chefs really, really prize them!
Most people saute them. you can put them on anything so don't be shy!
