Green Garlic is a favorite of mine. In India it is actually cultivated for consumption. It has the same health benefits that garlic has.
- “Leelu Lasan” in India.
- Called as Garlic Chives (Garlic Organic)
- Field Garlic
- Crow Garlic, or Onion Grass.
- Allium Vineale
Popular nurseries sell these
The flat, tender leaves have a flavor midway between garlic and onion. Delicious in salads, spreads and flavored vinegars. Grows best in full sun. Perennial in Zones 3-10. Start early indoors or outdoors after danger of frost. We searched the world to find the best organic seed-Burpee fully guarantees that not a drop of synthetic chemicals was used to make these excellent seeds. Certified Organic Seed.

I love wild garlic. It is one of my favorite seasonal treats and it is oh so good with eggs! 🙂

Love Green garlic with eggs and many other chicken and meat dishes. We also make kachu. Which is a dish where everything is raw except boiled potatoes. It has oil, eggs and you may add raw mince meat apart from the spices and it is vigorously mixed for a long time to give a fine shiny chutney kind of a texture
Interesting dish kachu. In gujarati the word “kachu” literally means “raw”.
