These cheddar and wild garlic biscuits are a tasty, seasonal addition to any picnic or lunch this spring. So grab a basket or bag and head to the woods or river banks to forage for wild garlic.
We have adapted this simple recipe from the April addition of Simple Things Magazine using our Cow's Whey Butter and Mature Cheddar. We picked the wild garlic leaves on the Quicke's Estate.
