RAMPS (WILD LEEKS) PIE

Ramps (Wild Leeks) Pie image

The flavor of ramps is similar to onions, particularly like scallions, but wilder. They can be used just like scallions. In Appalachia, they are so popular that festivals are dedicated to them. They've been a staple of Southern Appalachian cooking for generations. Feel free to sub regular leeks or scallions if ramps are unavailable.
