it is only these days that we can find and savour their lovely nutty taste … delicious
beech sprouts burst out of the forest ground …

raw their taste is not especially nice, but to add taste, you just have to roast them in a little oil and add a little good salt … and then they make a great accessory for fresh cheese salads … or with roasted bread in a herb soup …

but my current favourite is this … spread it on wild plant and bacon polenta …
how to …
finely dice a small onion or shallot and a glove of garlic,
slightly fry them in some vegetable oil, add polenta (60g per person) and slightly roast it,
then add vegetable broth and cream bit by bit stirring constantly with reduced heat.
later add finely diced tomatoes, pepper, cayenne pepper and chili
and just prior to serving some butter and wirld plant pesto …

in a seperate pan roast some finely cut bacon, add beech sprouts, a tiny bit of brown sugar and season with pepper and salt. spread onto polenta just prior to serving …
and enjoy …
