Tips for collecting wild garlic
Collecting wild garlic is fun, but can also be dangerous if you are not concentrated. Because the wild garlic looks almost like lily of the valley and autumn crocus, which grow at the same time, but are highly poisonous.
The wild garlic can be recognized by the fact that each leaf has its own stem and the leaves smell strongly of garlic. If you're not sure, it's best to take an expert with you and get a detailed explanation of the differences.
The younger the wild garlic plant, the better and softer it is.
