Wood Sorrel

I have been putting together July's menu and I am going to be using wood sorrel in one of the dishes.  If you have never had wood sorrel, aka false shamrock, you should definitely try it.  It is similar to sorrel in that it is lemony and acidic but it looks like a clover with a yellow flower...and it grows like crazy in Western MA.  I have it all over my yard.  Sometimes I think there is more wood sorrel than grass.  If you have a patch growing in your yard, try throwing some into your next salad.  The crisp and acidic green will bring a whole new life to your salad.  Know that I think about it, there just might be more wood sorrel in my yard than grass...at least it tastes better...
