About Ramps
Ramps, also known as wild leeks, are a flavorful, nutrient-rich vegetable native to North America, particularly the Appalachian region. Beloved for their pungent, garlicky aroma and subtly sweet flavor, ramps are often featured in spring dishes when their short growing season begins. They are packed with vitamins A and C, as well as minerals like iron and magnesium, offering immune-boosting and antioxidant benefits. Ramps are used in a variety of cuisines, most notably in Appalachian and Southern dishes, and are excellent in soups, pestos, and sautés. While ramps are low in calories and high in flavor, their widespread popularity has raised concerns about sustainability, as their slow growth and overharvesting pose risks to wild populations. When harvested responsibly or farmed, they make a nutritious addition to meals while preserving their natural habitat.
