Wild Mustard garlic leaf and red dead nettle & wild onion dolmas
#wildfood #different Spring time is my time of the year for foraging. So much is available right outside. You can find many of these ingredients on the side of the road as you are walking down the street. Make sure you know how to identify your wild onion and garlic. When in doubt trust your nose. Should have a strong smell of onion or garlic. Also, wild food has very strong flavors, so minimum use of salts or seasoning. Enjoy what nature already provides.

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Blanch your garlic mustard leaves, I steam mine for about 2 minutes then air dry. The leaves will stick to each other. So I try to arrange them into my leaf wraps while they dry.
- 2
Blanch for 1 minute your red nettle leaf and flower then chop. I like to use my ulu for this.
- 3
Chop in your wild onion or garlic and break out the mortar and pestle. Combine your garlic, red dead nettle, pine nuts, sesame seed oil only add salt after you taste your pesto. Seriously! Salt is not important.
- 4
Oil your pan and quick toast your quinoa, then add your couscous and water. Let it boil.
- 5
Chop your dates and almonds.
- 6
Add almonds and dates with 2-4 tbsp of your pesto. I like to cut the sweet with the pesto so I tend to have 4 tbsp of my pesto. Let it sit until it gets room temperature. Should be nice and thick.
- 7
Build your dolmas!
- 8
Final stages. Brush your favorite oil and add some zest. I like lemon olive oil with some grapefruit zest. Enjoy!

Dolmas with Avgolemono Sauce Dolmas with Avgolemono Sauce
Dolma means something stuffed or filled, in Turkey. The sauce originated from Sephardi Jewish Cuisine from Iberia. Egg and lemon sauce is used in a lot of Middle Eastern, Greek, and Balkans cuisine. There are more areas that have a version of this sauce. I added honey and sugar so the granddaughters would eat them.Sometimes these are stuffed with minced/ground meat, nuts, fruit, vegetables and so on. Sometimes cornstarch is used to help thicken the sauce. We like this version so I stick with it.

Calzones with Wild Dandelion Greens, Black Olives, and Almonds Calzones with Wild Dandelion Greens, Black Olives, and Almonds
Today, thanks to a beautiful sunny morning, we took a walk in the countryside. I took the opportunity to relax, enjoy the mild air that hints at spring, and also pick a nice bunch of wild dandelion greens. I had already thawed two portions of dough for my "Emergency Flatbreads" with the idea of making a delicious filling today. Well, the walk and the bunch of greens gave me the inspiration!

Muhammara (Red Bell Pepper and Nuts Dip) Muhammara (Red Bell Pepper and Nuts Dip)
I had this at my friend's house. I was surprised how delicious it was after the first bite. It was store-bought Muhammara, but I checked the ingredients, and made some myself at home.It seems that pomegranate syrup is used to make this, but I made pomegranate juice instead since I can't get hold of the syrup. I think you can substitute the pomegranate juice with store-bought pomegranate syrup or juice. If using pomegranate syrup, use a tiny bit. Or you can omit it.. Recipe by Torepiante
