When making pesto out of wildgarlic, you can store it at least for two weeks in the fridge and you can use it to flavor many different foods, for example, stir fried vegetables, noodles, chicken, and soups.
So I was delighted when a Russian family in Irkutsk invited my husband and me to join them on an outing to gather cheremsha, the wildgarlic that grows in abundance in southern Siberia.
