Ramps and Eggs

Scrambled eggs cooked with sautéed wild ramps for a simple, seasonal mountain breakfast.

The four-week breakfast

When ramps come up in early spring, the mountains smell like garlic for a fortnight — and this simple scramble is how you eat the season.

Step by stepInstructions

  1. Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat and sauté the ramp bulbs 2 minutes.
  2. Add the ramp greens and cook 1-2 minutes until wilted.
  3. Whisk the eggs with the milk, salt, and pepper; pour into the skillet.
  4. Scramble gently until just set, folding in cheese at the end if using.
  5. Serve immediately over toast.

💡 Chef tips & storage

Ramps cook fast — keep the heat medium. Serve with fried potatoes for the full mountain breakfast.
