WILD GARLIC SOUP

WILD GARLIC SOUP 🌱
Wild garlic season is the best season. It means spring is here, you get to pick your own FREE garlicky goodness, then make some delicious things with it.
I always get very excited about foraging my own food, as it’s not something I am yet able to do regularly…
SO, obviously the first wild garlic recipe I had to make was a WILD GARLIC SOUP. Vibrant and green, packing a garlicky punch, this smells + tastes of SPRING.
