Description
Mild garlic flavour with a fresh herbal character
Mabura Organic Wild Garlic brings the distinctive flavour of wild garlic to your kitchen throughout the year. The carefully dried leaves are finely cut, making the herb easy to measure, sprinkle and combine with other seasonings.
Wild garlic has a softer and more herbal flavour than conventional garlic. It adds savoury depth without overpowering the other ingredients in your dish, making it a versatile choice for everyday cooking.
Use it to flavour pasta, rice, potatoes, vegetables, soups, sauces, spreads and savoury bakes. It is also an excellent ingredient for homemade wild garlic pesto, herb butter, creamy dips and salad dressings.
How to use dried wild garlic
Sprinkle the dried wild garlic directly into:
- Pasta sauces
- Risotto and rice dishes
- Roasted or boiled potatoes
- Vegetable dishes
- Soups and stews
- Omelettes and scrambled eggs
- Cream cheese and yoghurt dips
- Herb butter
- Salad dressings
- Bread and savoury dough
- Homemade pesto
For creamy dips and spreads, mix the wild garlic with yoghurt, sour cream, cream cheese or softened butter. Allow the mixture to rest briefly before serving so the dried leaves can absorb moisture and release more flavour.
For pesto, combine it with olive oil, grated hard cheese, nuts or seeds and a small amount of lemon juice. You can use it alone or mix it with fresh basil, parsley or other green herbs.
Add it toward the end of cooking
Wild garlic is most aromatic when it is not exposed to high heat for too long. Add it during the final minutes of cooking or sprinkle it over the finished dish.
When preparing soup, sauce or risotto, stir it in shortly before serving. For roasted vegetables and potatoes, add it after roasting with a little olive oil, butter or salt.
This gentle handling helps preserve the herb’s mild garlic aroma, as recommended by Mabura.
A convenient alternative to fresh wild garlic
Fresh wild garlic has a relatively short seasonal availability. Dried wild garlic provides a convenient way to enjoy its characteristic flavour at any time of year.
The finely cut format requires no washing or chopping. Simply open the jar, measure the required quantity and add it to your recipe.
