Garlic Scapes – Organic

Description

Certain types of garlic (known as the “hardneck” varieties) which grow in colder climates generate a long, spindly strand out of the center of the stalk. The bad news is we have to pick about 14,000 of these each June. The good news is… they taste great! They are crunchy and have a mild garlic flavor. They can be enjoyed in a number of ways: sauteed with olive oil or butter with a bit of salt and pepper, roasted, grilled, used raw in salads, made into pesto, pickled… Garlic scapes are a low FODMAP food, providing an alternative to people who otherwise cannot enjoy garlic.
