Lampascioni: edible hyacinth bulbs

Lampascioni (edible hyacinth bulbs) are a traditional Southern Italian delicacy, specifically in Puglia and the Salentine peninsula where they’re gathered in the spring or winter before the plants produce their purple flowers.

Today I’ll go over their traditional uses, and what I’ve learned about them over the past few years.  A few years ago I stumbled on a recipe for Hyacinth bulbs in one of my Southern Italian books.
