Garlic Scapes

This week you will find garlic scapes in your share. Garlic scapes are the tops or flowers of the garlic plant. They can be used in any recipe or dish that calls for garlic. They are slightly milder than garlic. Use the whole length except about 1-2 inches from the bottom. That part can get quite dry and woody. The bud or top is the most flavorful. Keep them in your fridge. They will keep for about 2-3 weeks!






To use:
  • Chop them up like a scallion and saute them in a little olive oil or butter
  • Dice them up fine and use them fresh in salads
  • They are great in pasta sauces and also as a pesto
