Bärlauch – spring messenger with intensive aroma
For me, wild garlic belongs to me Spring kitchen absolutely. The season usually starts in March and is enough depending on the weather by the end of April or early May. You can often find it in shady forests or on damp brook edges – but be sure to be careful not to confuse him with lily of the valley or autumn timeless.
This is how you identify wild garlic: The safest note is that Odor. Grate a sheet between the fingers – only real wild garlic smells intensely of garlic. Lösklaschen and autumn timeless look similar to him, but are poisonous and do not smell. Their leaves usually grow out of a rosette while Bear garlic sprouts from the ground individually And rather looks matt. But if you are unsure, keep your fingers away or get your wild garlic fresh from the market.
