RAMPS AND POTATO SOUP

Ramps and Potato Soup image

Here's something a little unusual to do with the ramps that pop up at the farmers' market in the spring. Sauté them with some potatoes in bacon fat - always a good idea - and then simmer in chicken broth with some spices until done. You can mash up the potatoes a little to lend a smoother texture to the soup, or not. Either way: springtime deliciousness!

POTATO AND WILD LEEK SOUP

Potato and Wild Leek Soup image

Leeks (some call them "ramps" ) grow wild here in the foothills of the Alleghenies. I adpated this from a recipe that I found online. The ingredient list below says "ramps" because Recipezaar kept changing it from "wild leeks" to "leek" which is a completely different vegetable.
