There is something about a food that is only available, for a few short weeks every year especially when we are talking about ramps. Ramps are a type of wild onion, sort of like a green onion with a garlic onion flavor. They are only available in the early spring mostly at farmers markets and are so flavorful they just need to be sauteed with a bit of oil and a sprinkling of salt. For this recipe I just dressed it up a bit for fun with more garlic and a sprinkling of Pecorino.
