How can something so invasive and dreaded taste so good ? Since I discovered mustard garlic a few years ago I have used a lot in cooking. Edible Toronto Magazine featured my recipe and a photograph on their Instagram account last year. i can’t wait for it to be spring and to make some pesto again from my garden.
