garlic mustard
 

Around here we have a pesty but beautiful plant called garlic mustard.
It was brought over by settlers as a condiment and self-seeds so
readily that the Illinois conservation dept. has outlawed it. The
crushed leaves do indeed smell like garlic and mustard.

Does anybody know how garlic mustard is supposed to be used (as a
condiment)?

Thanks, Dianna

Usethem as you would mustard greens.

I don't expect is would make you quite as pungeant as eating ramps would,
but a bit of a garlic reek should be anticipated.
