Ramps in Spring. The sign that morels are around the corner!

In Norway, we do not have a tradition of harvesting the bulbs. Only the leaves.

Just before the flowers burst out and the picking is over.

The price of ramps at the supermarket: NOK 332 pr kg (About 19 US dollars a lb at the current exchange rate)
