Two of Our Best Ramp Recipes
Two great recipes – wraps and canapes – are for any spring-time gathering of family and friends. Serve with Fuji apples – apples help remove the infamous ramp odor!
Ramp Wraps
Makes 12 – wraps
Ingredients:
- 12 fresh stalks of ramps
- 12 slices corned beef
- 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened

Trim the ramp stalks so that only a small amount of green top remains. Save the tops and leaves for the other recipe below.
Fold the corned beef slices in half. Spread the slices with equal amounts of cream cheese. Place the ramp stalk on the cream cheese. Roll the corned beef slices so that the green onion stalks stick out slightly. Serve chilled.
