Wild garlic leaf

What is Wild garlic leaf?

The broad green leaves of wild garlic (ramsons), foraged in British woodlands, with a fresh, mild garlic flavour milder than the bulb. A prized seasonal forage ingredient sold by weight.

Used raw or lightly wilted in pestos, butters, soups, risottos and dressings, or as a vibrant garnish; the flowers and buds are also edible for plating.

Why the number moves

UK produce moves through the wholesale markets — New Covent Garden and the regional markets — fed by British growers in season and by Spanish, Dutch and other imports out of season. That's why a case rate on wild garlic leaf can shift week to week.

It's held pretty steady across the year. Buying what's in season is still the most reliable way to keep produce cost in check.

Seasonality in the UK

A short British spring season, roughly March to May.

Per case or per kilo?

Produce is sold by the case, with a per-kilo rate shown where it helps you compare. Order on the unit that matches your prep so you're not throwing money out on shrink — perishables don't wait.

Buy by the kilogram in season only and use within a day or two as the leaves wilt rapidly; turn surplus into wild garlic butter or pesto to extend its life beyond the brief season.
