This is just a simple vegetable accompaniment to a sunday roast dinner, or anything you can think of, using this years wild garlic crop. Although you can eat wild garlic well into the spring, the first month is when the young leaves are at their best for cooking. Take equal amounts of sweetheart cabbage and wild garlic and a medium sized leek and shred into thin strips, steam until the vegetables are tender (approx. 5-8 minutes).
I know a lot of people that are into lightweight backpacking and do not like carrying knives due to the weight. However, because i tend to use a wood burning stove and quite often fish while backpacking I always tend to carry a knife with me. I used to carry a traditional bushcraft knife but i must admit i found it a little on the weighty side. So I was looking for a tough and light fixed-blade knife for some time. The IZULA from rat cutlery is the smallest knife from Randall’s Adventure and Training (RAT) and like all their knives it's one I really like and the one i most use because it's so small.
It has a total length of 6.25 inches (158 mm) allowing you to carry a fixed- blade knife in your pocket. This knife is designed from 1095 carbon steel which is very strong and can hold a very sharp edge. This model has RATs very durable coating on the entire knife and there is no handle, although you can wrap it with paracord like i have done. I have been using the knife for about a year now and it makes a great survival/bushcraft knife and I highly recommend it to any outdoor person. Comes with RAT lifetime replacement warranty.
