The wild garlic (Lat. Allium ursinum) belongs to the Allium family like chives, leeks and garlic. It is similar to garlic in taste and in smell, which helps to distinguish it from the leaves of the highly poisonous autumn crocus or the equally poisonous lily of the valley. So please be careful when collecting. Wild garlic has a positive effect on the stomach, liver, intestines, kidneys and bile. It has antihypertensive properties and helps with advanced hardening of the arteries. Its aromatic taste brings flavor to salads, butter, pesto and mustard. But it can also be made into a delicious soup.

2 onions
