Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to make a simple wild garlic salad with sour cream? This is the simplest salad with a minimum amount of ingredients. I often cook it in the spring and early summer, when the harvest season is underway, then the wild garlic is especially juicy, with a bright garlicky taste and aroma. At other times of the year you can use frozen.

Step 2

Step 2
Collected or purchased wild garlic must be soaked for 5-10 minutes in cool water. Then rinse under running water, removing the burgundy film from the root part. Let the water drain and dry with a towel. Ramson is a wild-growing herb, and there is always soil residue on it, so do not neglect the preliminary preparation because there will be no heat treatment.

Step 3

Step 3
From early wild garlic, only the stem is used in salad before the leaves grow; this is the most fleshy and juicy part. Renew the cut, finely chop the rest of the stem. Do not throw away the leaf; it also contains a lot of vitamins, mineral supplements and essential oils. It is better to freeze it and use it later.

Step 4

Step 4
Place the greens in a deep salad bowl, add salt to taste and season with sour cream. Take any sour cream, I like it up to 15%, it spreads easily and is not runny, from 20% is thick for my taste.

Step 5

Step 5
Mix the salad thoroughly. You can serve immediately or keep it in the refrigerator for a while, then be sure to cover it.

Step 6

Step 6
You can serve it in a beautiful large salad bowl or in portions. Wild garlic, like any green, the longer it sits, the more juice it will produce. But it’s okay, this is a salad for every day, and not for holiday serving. And yet, prepare a small portion so that it is eaten immediately, so it looks presentable and has more benefits.
