Message: [QUOTE="8893, post: 4303458, member: 93"] Yeah, I don’t recall being aware of ramps, or scapes, being a thing until I started seeing them on menus around 10 years ago, probably at Bufalina, where they usually do a special pie with them during one of the two weeks or so that they are in season. But once I saw them and smelled them, I recognized them immediately as a plant we definitely frolicked among as kids. The funny thing about ramps with me is that I don’t like onions as a condiment or on pizza, but I like ramps. Kinda like roasted red peppers, in that I don’t like the texture but I like the taste (and I do cook with onions). I thought Bufalina had a rare miss with their scapes pie last year because they did it with lemon and ricotta and went wayyyy too heavy on the lemon, to the point where it overpowered the taste of the scapes. Hoping they do a different combo this year; and also hoping Atticus does a scapes pie, too. [/QUOTE]
