This recipe is perfect for all that Canada goose or venison rump that is taking up room in your freezer, and homemade with meat you have harvested yourself is way better than store bought.

Foraging for wild ramps, also known as wild leeks or wild garlic (depending on where you're from), is a springtime adventure that brings a burst of wild flavours to your table. Wild leeks are in season during the heart of spring turkey season in Ontario, which is a bonus.
