Pickled Ramps
Report
As I'd mentioned, ramp bulbs are ideal here, but any small onion bulb will work. Use your ingenuity. The flavors here are sweet-and-sour, and you can in fact taste the saffron. Use turmeric or curry powder if you can't get saffron. This recipe makes about 2 pints.

Ingredients
- 1 1/4 pounds ramp bulbs garlic cloves or pearl onions
- 1/2 teaspoon saffron
- 2 cups distilled vinegar or white wine vinegar
- 1 cup water
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 thyme sprig; fresh
- 1 tablespoon kosher salt
Instructions
- Put the thyme sprig in a clean quart jar. Make sure you have an unused lid for the jar; they only seal properly once.
- Get your canning pot ready. Put a layer of old canning jar rims on the bottom of the pot, or a vegetable steamer -- something to keep the bottom of the jar off the bottom of the pot. Pour in enough hot tap water to cover the jar by about 1 inch. Put it on your most powerful burner and kick the spurs to it.
- Meanwhile, pour the vinegar and water in another pot and crumble the saffron into it. Pour the salt in and turn the heat to medium-high. Once the vinegar mixture is hot, pour in the honey and stir to combine. When the vinegar mixture is simmering, add the ramp bulbs and boil 2 to 3 minutes.
- Pack into the jar, making sure to not overfill -- there's a line on the jar marking the proper headspace. Wipe the rim of the jar with a clean cloth or paper towel and seal.
- Submerge the jar in the boiling water of the canning pot for 10 minutes. Wait at least 1 week before eating. Sealed, the pickles should last a year. Refrigerate after opening.
