After splitting the Beech I picked some leeks for my wife who was making some potato leek soup for tonight which was excellent.

Was down in the mountains of WV this past weekend and saw "ramp bread" and "ramp dip" for sale.

Thanks for the pics Zap. I have never picked any wild ones and now I can at least keep an eye out. I don't know if any grows in my normal stomping grounds but I can look.

Edit: and that soup looks AWESOME. Its making me hungry.

The smell will also tell you if it's a leek, when I drive to the area when picking leeks I can smell it in the air.
