An amazingly simple yet delicious recipe that highlights ramps! A squeeze of lemon and a dash of sea salt is all you need to bring out the delicious flavor of these wild onions.
Preheat the grill to medium high. Wash, trim and dry the ramps. I sliced off a small amount from each bulb but you can keep the "strings" on if you so please. Transfer the ramps to a plate and brush with olive oil.
Place each ramp, leaves included, on the grill, cover, and cook for 3-5 minutes on each side or until charred and tender.
Transfer the ramps to a serving dish. Drizzle with a fresh squeeze of lemon juice and a fresh grind of sea salt, to taste. Enjoy!
Notes
I highly recommend using a mesh grill mat if you have one. This will prevent the ramps from falling through the grill racks.
You can also make this recipe on a grill pan.
While any type of salt works in this recipe, I especially like to use Maldon flaky sea salt! It's delicious.
