Wild garlic

Did you know that the leaves of wild garlic, if it is not yet flowering, are used raw minced in salads and soups. They have a chives, onion, or garlic flavor. The leaves, in particular, smell like garlic and onions when rubbed. In Germany, wild garlic has enjoyed great popularity for several years and is processed, for example, into pesto and marinades and into bread ('Bärlauchbrot') and cheese, among other things. But it's better to stay away from these plants anyway and leave them alone. When collecting the leaves, there is a danger of mixing them up with leaves of other plants, such as lily of the valley, spotted arum, and autumn tideless which are poisonous. Every year, there are casualties as a result of this mix-up.
