Do you have to boil ramps?

I'm curious, do you really need to boil ramps before using them in cooking? I've heard varying opinions on this, with some people swearing by the boiling method while others say it's not necessary. I understand that boiling ramps can help remove some of their bitter flavor and make them more palatable, but is it really a necessary step? Or is there a way to use ramps without boiling them that still yields delicious results? I'd love to hear your thoughts on this.
