Veggie Fun Fact: Garlic scapes are the tender stem and flower bud of a hardneck garlic plant. Harvesting the scapes is an integral part of garlic farming - if the scapes aren’t cut off, the plant expends its energy trying to grow its stem and flower, leaving the bulb small and flavourless. So, by eating garlic scapes, you’re doing your part in the garlic growing cycle!
Description: Garlic scapes have a juicy, somewhat asparagus-like texture. They have an incredible garlic flavour that's fresher and less fiery than the actual garlic bulb.
The entire scape can be eaten just the same as you would with any garlic. Raw or cooked. Make a pesto or even pickle them!
