One of the things that I enjoy most about moving is exploring new areas. I have been so pleasantly surprised about Cleveland and how much we love it here. From being close to family for the first time in 20 years to finding wild garlic in my yard!
At first I thought it was green onions, which made me extremely happy until I bit into it and it tasted like chive flavored garlic. Not a bad thing, just not what I was expecting. I told my parents about it and started doing some research. Turns out, wild garlic, otherwise known as field garlic, is native to NE Ohio. Spring and early summer is the best time to harvest. So I replanted some to see if I could make it grow and flourish. Today I decided to harvest some and do what I love to do with everything, I pickled it. Here’s to finding out what pickled garlic taste like.
