Garlic Mustard Alliaria Petiolata Can’t Beat ‘Em, Eat ‘Em Invasive Species Recipes Garlic Mustard Alliaria petiolata Region of Origin:Europe Habitat: Biennial shrub Current Range: Throughout most of the northern hemisphere Life Span: Year round Garlic mustard is a wild, highly invasive green that is wonderful to cook with – and as the name says, it has a garlicky mustard flavor! Used for perhaps 6,000 years, garlic mustard is one of the oldest European cooking spices. It was introduced to North America in the mid-1800’s, and due to a predator-free environment, it has become highly invasive. Moist forests and floodplains mark its preferred habitat where it is often the dominant plant and can form large homogeneous stands. It produces a variety of chemicals that suppress the growth of other plants and fend off herbivores, so be cautious not to consume excessively large quantities (think grazing cow quantities). In human sized portions, garlic mustard is highly nutritious and offers anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial benefits. Recently, garlic mustard has received ample attention as a foraged food, and recipes abound. The tiny sprouts that burst up in early spring are mild and can be featured in salads and other dishes. The leaf rosettes are tender most of the spring, but will toughen and bitter as the season passes. You can also enjoy the flower stalks, adorned with the delicate clusters of white flowers. The thin triangle shaped leaves are tender, and for those of you who like a garlicky mustard bite, try them! Even the seeds can be dried and stored. Just pop them in a jar, and use for salad dressings or hot mustard anytime. Lastly, grate the roots into a horseradish-like accent – be sure to add a splash of vinegar!

Can’t Beat ‘Em, Eat ‘Em Invasive Species Recipes Garlic Mustard and Cheese Ravioli Filling Recipe by The 3 Foragers Writer and forager Karen Monger, of The 3 Foragers, shares this note: “We like to pair the pungency of this wild edible with earthy flavors like mushrooms, plus rich textures like cheese in recipes, while still adding a good quantity of garlic mustard. This recipe is mostly about making a filling. You can fill wontons or pasta dough for ravioli, or even use it to stuff some puff pastry triangles or bread. We used some wild hen-of-the-woods maitake mushrooms, because that is what we had in the freezer, but grocery store mushrooms will work fine.” 1 Tbsp Olive Oil 2½ cups Garlic Mustard Leaves, roughly chopped 1 cup Ramps or Onions, chopped 4 Tbsp Farmer’s Cheese or Drained Ricotta 1 cup Mushrooms, chopped 1 Tbsp Sour Cream 2 cloves Garlic, chopped 1 tsp Salt G Saute chopped ramps or onion in the olive oil over medium heat until translucent, 4 minutes. G Add garlic and chopped mushrooms. G Cook until the mushrooms release their juices and it evaporates, about 5 more minutes. G Toss in 2 cups of the garlic mustard leaves and cover the pan. G Cook 2 more minutes to wilt the leaves. G Remove from the heat and allow the mixture to cool. G Put the cooked onion, mushroom and garlic mustard mixture into a food processor, and pulse a few times to mix. G Add the remaining 1/2 cup of raw garlic mustard leaves, the farmer’s cheese, sour cream and salt, and continue to pulse until the mixture is finely chopped. G Taste and adjust salt. G Use the filling to fill ravioli, wonton wrappers, or as a spread. G Makes about 2 cups. Photo courtesy of The 3 Foragers Visit www.cantbeatemeatem.us .: 2 of 4 :. © 2017 SilverFin Group, Inc.

Can’t Beat ‘Em, Eat ‘Em Invasive Species Recipes Garlic Mustard Falafels Recipe by The 3 Foragers Writer and forager Karen Monger shares this note: “Here we add them to a baked falafel, along with some ramps greens. I bake my own pitas, but store bought ones work just as well. We stuff our pitas with feta, shredded lettuce, salted cucumbers, red cabbage, pickles, olives, falafels, shredded carrots, and tzatziki sauce. These falafels are baked instead of fried. I also start by soaking raw, dried chickpeas overnight, and don’t even cook them before blending them in the food processor.” 1 cup Garlic Mustard Greens, chopped 2 Tbsp Cumin, ground and packed 1 Tbsp Coriander, ground 1 ea Small Onion, chopped 2 Tbsp Flour 1 Tbsp Fresh Cilantro, chopped 2 tsp Baling Powder 2 cans Chickpeas (or 3 cups raw, soaked) 2 tsp Salt 1 Tbsp Lemon Juice 1 tsp Pepper 2 Tbsp Olive Oil 1 cup Breadcrumbs G Heat the oven to 375°. G Place the greens and chickpeas in a food processor, and blend until chunky. G Add the lemon juice, olive oil, spices, flour, baking powder, salt and pepper, and process until a thick, slightly chunky paste forms. You may need to add more olive oil, if you want the mixture to be scoopable. G Scoop the mixture into patties, about 2 Tablespoons for each patty. G Coat the falafels in the breadcrumbs and place on a baking sheet. G Spray the falafels with a light coat of olive oil cooking spray. G Bake for 20 minutes, flip over and bake 10 minutes longer. G Serve with pitas and fillings. G Makes about 35 falafel patties. Photo courtesy of The 3 Foragers Visit www.cantbeatemeatem.us .: 3 of 4 :. © 2017 SilverFin Group, Inc. All Rights Reserved.

Can’t Beat ‘Em, Eat ‘Em Invasive Species Recipes Garlic Mustard Hummus Recipe by The 3 Foragers Writer and forager Karen Monger shares this note: “The top 4 inches or so of the flower stalk is still tender, and we pick it along with the flower head and top triangular leaves along the stalk. The taste of the flower buds can be quite fiery, like raw horseradish and add a bite to whatever we eat them with. We usually eat them raw or lightly boiled since cooking them in a sautée pan seems to bring out the bitterness. In this hummus, we added them raw to give the hummus a green spiciness. We also added ramps greens (Allium tricoccum), but garlic can be substituted.” 2 cups Garlic Mustard Leaves, chopped 4 Tbsp Lemon Juice 1 cup Ramp Greens, chopped 2 Tbsp Tahini 2 cups Chick Peas, cooked 1½ Tsp Salt 5 Tbsp Olive Oil 2 Tbsp Cumin G Place the chopped garlic mustard leaves, ramps greens and chickpeas in a food processor. G Process until chunky. G Add the remaining ingredients, and process until smooth. G We like our hummus very thick, but you could add more olive oil. G Serve with pitas. G Makes about 2 1/2 cups.

  • Abstract Alliaria Petiolata (Garlic
    ABSTRACT ALLIARIA PETIOLATA (GARLIC MUSTARD) RESPONSE TO HERBICIDE AND JUNE PRECIPITATION, AND SUBSEQUENT EFFECTS ON THE FOREST FLOOR COMMUNITY by Wendy Wenger Hochstedler The impact of invasive plant species on native plants is largely assumed to be negative, but supporting evidence is sparse. We examined the long-term effects of herbicide on Alliaria petiolata and the subsequent effects on the plant community in southwestern Ohio. November herbicide application effectively killed A. petiolata, but did not reduce recruitment; spring densities of A. petiolata rosettes were not lower in sprayed plots. Only modest differences were noted in forest floor vegetation, suggesting A. petiolata rosettes competed with other plant species. We tested the hypothesis that higher June precipitation promotes rosette growth and survival with a rain shelter experiment. The three different water treatments affected soil moisture, but not A. petiolata growth or survival. Dry treatments may not have replicated drought years based on water availability measurements. June precipitation is probably not a reliable predictor of A. petiolata rosette survival in years with above average precipitation.

  • Exotic Invasive of the Quarter: Garlic Mustard (Alliaria Petiolata)
    You Ain’t From around Here! Exotic Invasive of the Quarter: Garlic Mustard (Alliaria petiolata) By: Jennifer Gagnon, Virginia Tech The other day I was in the garden, looking at my 5‐foot‐tall horseradish plant, wondering when I should don goggles and rubber gloves and attempt a root harvest (I’m a little intimidated by the whole thing!). Horseradish is an invasive plant, so I always check carefully to make sure it hasn’t spread outside the garden. Which got me to thinking about other edible invasives, namely garlic mustard, an exotic invasive so prolific, I can’t believe I’ve gone 7 years without writing about it. This bugger is everywhere! In fact, in many woodland and floodplain environments in the Northeastern US, it is the dominant understory species. Garlic mustard, which is indeed in the mustard family (along with cabbage and broccoli), has a lot of nicknames, such as garlic root, hedge garlic, Jack‐in‐the‐bush, penny hedge, poor man's mustard, and my personal favorite, sauce‐alone. This plant, native to Europe, western and central Asia, NW Africa, Scandinavia, and India, was first found in the US on Long Island, NY in 1868. Garlic mustard has been considered widespread and invasive since 2000 and is listed as noxious or restricted in AL, CT, MA, MN, NH, OR, VT, WV, and WA. Like many of our invasive plants, garlic mustard was brought to the US intentionally – for culinary or medicinal purposes. The first‐year leaves, flowers, and fruits have a mild garlic flavor and can be chopped up and used in salads and sauces (hence the nickname sauce‐ alone?).

  • Floristic Quality Assessment Report
    FLORISTIC QUALITY ASSESSMENT IN INDIANA: THE CONCEPT, USE, AND DEVELOPMENT OF COEFFICIENTS OF CONSERVATISM Tulip poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera) the State tree of Indiana June 2004 Final Report for ARN A305-4-53 EPA Wetland Program Development Grant CD975586-01 Prepared by: Paul E. Rothrock, Ph.D. Taylor University Upland, IN 46989-1001 Introduction Since the early nineteenth century the Indiana landscape has undergone a massive transformation (Jackson 1997). In the pre-settlement period, Indiana was an almost unbroken blanket of forests, prairies, and wetlands. Much of the land was cleared, plowed, or drained for lumber, the raising of crops, and a range of urban and industrial activities. Indiana’s native biota is now restricted to relatively small and often isolated tracts across the State. This fragmentation and reduction of the State’s biological diversity has challenged Hoosiers to look carefully at how to monitor further changes within our remnant natural communities and how to effectively conserve and even restore many of these valuable places within our State. To meet this monitoring, conservation, and restoration challenge, one needs to develop a variety of appropriate analytical tools. Ideally these techniques should be simple to learn and apply, give consistent results between different observers, and be repeatable. Floristic Assessment, which includes metrics such as the Floristic Quality Index (FQI) and Mean C values, has gained wide acceptance among environmental scientists and decision-makers, land stewards, and restoration ecologists in Indiana’s neighboring states and regions: Illinois (Taft et al. 1997), Michigan (Herman et al. 1996), Missouri (Ladd 1996), and Wisconsin (Bernthal 2003) as well as northern Ohio (Andreas 1993) and southern Ontario (Oldham et al.

    Garlic mustard Oriental bittersweet Alliaria petiolata Control Guidelines Fact Sheet NH Department of Agriculture, Markets & Food, Division of Plant Industry, 29 Hazen Dr, Concord, NH 03301 (603) 271-3488 Common Name: Garlic mustard Latin Name: Alliaria petiolata New Hampshire Invasive Species Status: Prohibited (Agr 3800) Native to: Europe leaves (summer) Garlic mustard – Portsmouth, NH Basal rosette (spring/summer) Flowers (spring) Pods called siliques (late summer) Spring emergence Escaped onto compost pile Clump form (summer) Seed set (late summer) 1 Description: Biennial, 2nd year plants flower and reach 2-3 /2' tall. Leaves: Triangular, coarsely toothed, heart-shaped. Flowers: Umbel, small, 4-petals, white, April-May. Fruit: Pods, seeds turn black when mature. Zone: 4-8. Habitat: Prefers moist shaded floodplains, forests and roadsides, adaptable to most soil and light conditions. Spread: Seeds spread by water and wildlife. Comments: Plants spread quickly into natural areas leading to competition and displacement of native species. Controls: Small populations can be hand pulled while large populations can be continuously cut back to prevent flowering and seed production. Herbicide treatments are also effective. General Considerations Garlic mustard is herbaceous biennial developing a rosette of leaves the first growing season and maturing into a tall, 4’ (1.22 m) high, erect plant the second year. Crushing the stems will release the scent of garlic, hence its name. Rosettes produce a single flowering stem, but on occasion can produce multiple stems. Flowers are white with 4-petals and clustered in racemes. Seeds are produced in erect, slender, four-sided pods, called siliques, beginning in May. Each silique contains between 12-19 seeds, and the number of siliques per plant can vary greatly from 1 to more than 200.

  • Impacts and Treatment of Garlic Mustard (Alliaria Petiolata): Application of Research to Populations in the Portland, Oregon Metro Area
    Impacts and treatment of garlic mustard (Alliaria petiolata): application of research to populations in the Portland, Oregon metro area Garlic mustard (Alliaria petiolata) may be the most notorious invasive plant of forest understories in North America. It is thought to spread quickly into undisturbed forests and displace native species, including tree seedlings (Rodgers et al. 2008). Garlic mustard has been managed intensively to avoid impacts on native habitat. Recently, however, some have called into question the magnitude of the threat posed by garlic mustard (e.g. Lankau et al. 2009; Cipollini and Cipollini 2016). The purpose of this review is to summarize prominent research on the invasiveness of garlic mustard and the efficacy of control efforts. The relevance of this research to management in the Portland, Oregon metropolitan region is discussed. Garlic Mustard Background Garlic mustard is native to Eurasia, and was originally introduced to North America for culinary uses (Grieve 1959). It was documented on the East Coast of the United States in the 1860s (Rodgers et al 2008). By the 1980s garlic mustard had caught ecologists’ attention as a potentially invasive species of forest understories (Becker et al. 2011). Observations of rapid colonization (Rodgers et al. 2008), as well as life-history traits characteristic of strong invaders (Baker 1974) suggest that garlic mustard may be invasive. It attracts generalist pollinators, can self-pollinate (Cavers 1979; Anderson et al. 1996), and produces numerous seeds (Cavers 1979). It also has a rosette growth form (Cavers 1979), considered by Baker (1974) to be a competitive advantage. Garlic Mustard Dispersal and Establishment Garlic mustard spreads exclusively by seed, with no vegetative reproduction (Cavers et al.

  • Garlic Mustard (Alliaria Petiolata) Restricted DESCRIPTION
    Weed Identification and Control Sheet: www.goodoak.com/weeds WI NR-40: Garlic Mustard (Alliaria petiolata) Restricted DESCRIPTION: This European plant, introduced for food or medicine in the mid 19th century, now threatens wood- lands throughout the eastern half of North America. Research has found that garlic mustard releases a chemical called sinigrin into the soil which kills soil fungi. Native plants rely on these same fungi for help extracting nutrients, by removing them the garlic mustard weakens the native plants too. Garlic mustard can rapidly invade and dominate both back yards and high quality natural areas. It forms dense mono- cultures, displacing and eliminating native plant species and dependent wild- life. Seeds can stay viable in the seed bank for at least 7 years, so it is best to control garlic mustard while they are still few in number. Once a population is found land owners will need to repeatedly check their property for new plants for at least a decade. Garlic mustard gets its name from the garlic-like smell produced by crushed leaves. The root crown has a distinctive purple color. This biennial spe- cies starts in its first year as a small basal rosette less than 6” high with round- ed, kidney shaped, yellowish-green leaves with scalloped edges and embossed veins. These rosettes remain green through winter. During spring in its second year the plant bolts, sending up a flowering stalk 2 to 5’ high. Second year plant leaves are triangular with more sharply toothed margins. Small, white, four-pet- aled flowers develop in clusters at the top of the stems by lateApril to May.
