The ramsons season has started with the spring arrival. These days, ramsons leaves distinctive with a typical garlic scent can be collected in riverine and deciduous woodlands. The Masné Krámy restaurant’s chef Luděk Hauser has prepared nine interesting recipes with the use of ramsons for the guests. “We constantly try to provide our guests with new and interesting dishes using fresh seasonal ingredients. Ramsons used to be a widely used herb in our country; however they are almost unknown these days. Their flavour is milder that of a regular kitchen garlic. Furthermore, they contain various curative substances,“ says Luděk Hauser.
About ramsons
Ramsons (Allium ursinum) (also known as wood garlic or bear's garlic) are a wood species, which grow in riverine and deciduous woodlands as well as around streams or at the foot of hills, preferring moist, humic and mellow soils. They often occur in groups and create lovely carpets of white flowers. Ramsons are age-old medicinal plants, containing particularly essential oils with sulphur compounds. The effective substances function in many ways; they have germicidal effects and help e.g. during colds and respiratory disorders. They are antifungal, destroying mycosis and fungus. Furthermore, ramsons decreases blood pressure and is effective against arteriosclerosis. It is used to destroy enteric bacteria, against flatulence and urichostrongylus. Mainly young leaves and flower stems are used in the kitchen.
