Have a Good Foraging Book and Guide!

I use the book, “Northeast Foraging” as a guidebook, specific to my region. (I affiliate linked to this book in the recipe card at the end of the post)

I suggest you also ask people who are experts in foraging in person to give you 2nd option when foraging.

Never eat wild food that you are not 100% sure is safe to eat! Remember, always safety first!

4 ounces purslane, washed
1-2 tablespoons regular olive oil
1 teaspoon minced garlic

Notes

Spice and flavor suggestions: I tried to keep this recipe super simple but I also think a dash of white pepper, sesame oil, and Chinese 5 spice would also go really well with this dish (I have an Amazon affiliate linked them below).
Yield: The serving Size is 4 ounces per serving, this recipe makes 1 serving.
