How To Make Wild Garlic Salt | The Hedgerow Kitchen

Wild Garlic Salt.....WOW, just WOW! This tutorial on 'How To Make Wild Garlic Salt' will instantly make you popular in your household (and, lets be honest, whoever you gift it to....this makes a LOT).
Wild Garlic, a wild relative of the onion and widespread across Europe, is abundant at this time of year (March - the end of Spring). It is also an incredibly versatile ingredient: you can use it in salads, as a herb, boiled, fermented, used in soup, or in pesto.

However, for me, the way to use it that will guarantee that amazing wild garlic flavour all year round is this one: Wild Garlic Salt. It is also an incredibly easy recipe that (as long as you have access to Wild Garlic) shouldn't take you much longer than 10 mins to prepare! Truth be told, I found this recipe from the wizards at the Riverford Field Kitchen (check them out here: field kitchen.riverford.co.uk )

Equipment Needed:
• A blender (I use my Nutribullet)
• 2 or 3 baking trays

I can honestly say that looks absolutely spot-on. We have a small patch of wild garlic I took a small cutting a few year ago and it’s just over the last three years. I’ve got a massive patch now in the garden I think it’s absolutely fantastic lovely little flowers and I’m now starting to use it. We still got Some left in the garden at the moment flowers have gone, but the leaves are still there so I might have to use some before they go altogether but absolutely brilliant what you’ve done

I made your pesto and thought that was good but this....another level! It has transformed our morning eggs

[@jenniferpetrie8540]

I made this last year after watching your video and still have loads left. I will be topping up and sharing with familiy in these hard times. Great video. Keep them coming!

[@quicja]

👌👌👌 yes! Heard so much about doing this. An awesome way to use a natural ingredient that grows wild around the country!

[@hedgerowkitchen]

quicja and so versatile! You can use it on so much food! A game changer

[@sallydavis7658]

Just made some dehydrated so lovely

[@Dynemax]

The leafy product looks like wild leeks AKA Ramps, found in the east part of the America's . We love them and have possible 30 hillside acres of them, best in the spring.. The root and the leaf are a strong garlic and onion combination. Good idea, I think there is a cottage biz here. Thanks

[@pregnancyworkouts]

What an amazing ingredient! I made this at home and now have it on EVERYTHING! Thanks for the easy to follow tutorial!

[@alannajackson5369]

Trying crepes and salt this week. Thanks for sharing

[@heatherandrews4740]

Having just found a massive load of wild garlic (I didn't take it all) I was keen to start doing something with it. Your garlic salt was just what I wanted. I've got the sea salt so am itching to give it a go! Thanks for a great tutorial.

[@lovenationalbus]

Good idea! I get wild garlic in my Riverford box and I also put a root in my garden a few years ago, so have plenty now.

[@hedgerowkitchen]

lovenationalbus ah amazing! How did the root work out??? I’d love to do that

[@lovenationalbus]

@@hedgerowkitchen It has gradually spread out and is about two foot square or so after about four years. Looking good at the moment and covered in flowers. I won't let it go too far, but it doesn't spread too quickly. I put it under a Brambly apple tree so is shaded as in woodland.

[@janewhite1512]

I use Cornish sea salt. I hope that's okay.

[@catgirl7688]

This looks great. Went to get garlic earlier and going to try this today with half the quantities for now. Does the jar have to be sterilised before storing the salt please?

[@nickygreene4276]

Is the wild garlic wet ? if so how much water goes in this recipe please?

[@Kazzzzzo]

Zero.

[@HappyHungryHibby]

Hey, great insight on Wild Garlic recipe! Unique way of doing this, as you can also dry the leaves first. Very inspiring to me, as I’ve only just started my new channel. I’ve subscribed & it would be great to get some feedback on my channel too, as I’ve also published a video on Wild Garlic but not made this recipe yet. Great to have a community network and share insights

[@lovedirt9028]

I thought wild garlic had circular hollow leaves

[@hedgerowkitchen]

Love Dirt definitely not. Maybe another type of edible plant, but wild garlic most certainly is like this

[@davidyarros9754]

The plant that is being used in this video has a few common names...wild garlic, wild leeks and here in the US we call them Ramps. There is, in fact, another wild plant that is also a member of the Allium family. It is more akin to the garlic that is used in everyday cooking and it does have circular hollow leaves. Ramp leaves are palm shaped and the plant has a bulb more similar to a spring onion in shape.

David Yarros every day is a school day! I did not realise that! Thanks for letting us know David!

[@davidyarros9754]

The Hedgerow Kitchen You are very welcome. I greatly enjoy acquiring and sharing knowledge. I do quite a bit of foraging. I started several years ago and still consider myself a student. May I ask where in the UK are you located?

[@lalaJ109]

You're right, these are ramps. Good in their own right, but definitely not wild garlic.

[@vinyldeptford919]

TOO LONG WINDED

[@tcnota]

who eats so much salt wtf... this is insane... I haven't had that much salt in my entire life...

[@hedgerowkitchen]

T Tom what!? This salt will last me (and my family, and ALL the people I gift it to) a long time. What’s the issue?

[@jennifercline6866]

I thought so at first then realized it wss Supposed to be flavored salt vs making a seasoning with too much salt(not my favorite either). This would be great sprinkled on potatoes
