Chef and restaurateur in Nemours, in Seine-et-Marne, Kévin Frias proposed a spring recipe on Saturday in 

La table des bons vivants

by Laurent Mariotte on Europe 1. And for good reason: his barbecue saddle of lamb is flavored with bear garlic, reputed to be "the first green plant that grows in spring", explained the chef and columnist for the show Yves Camdeborde.

This garlic would therefore be "the first plant that bears eat in the spring" after their hibernation, hence its name.
