Wild garlic (ramson)

Wild garlic is also called ramson, and it can be foraged in woods for instance. Just make sure to rinse it thoroughly if you forage it. The amazing thing about the plant is that you can eat the leaves, stem as well as the flower!

Hemp seeds

With its lovely nutty flavour hemp seeds are amazing in many things including this vegan wild garlic hemp seed pesto. Besides having a lovely taste, hemp seeds are amazing for their rich nutritious composition. They contain two essential fatty acids, namely omega-3 and omega-6. Hemp seeds are also rich in protein and are considered a complete protein source, because they contain all the amino acids. This is an important factor to consider when being on a vegan diet, as complete protein sources are rare to find in the plant based world.
