Wild Onions

Wild onions are a very flavorful delicious edible. They are one of the first plants to push through the ground in spring. They look like a cross between chives and scallions. Their leaves, bulbs, and flowers are all edible and have a distinctive sharp flavor and scent.

They are typically found in clumps and because of their small size, cleaning can be a little tedious. Wash the bulbs and remove the roots and skins until you get down to the snowy white bulbs.

I simply sauteed these wild onions in olive oil with a little bit of salt and pepper.

Wild onions are delicious grilled, chopped into a salad, used as garnish, roasted, creamed, made into an onion dip or an onion broth or soup.
