Backyard Harvest: Garlic Scapes

11111

I think my favourite thing about garlic scapes is their name.  It is such a great name.  It always reminds me of Severus Snape from Harry Potter, although of course that's Snape, not Scape.

Garlic scapes are really just the greens that shoot up when you plant garlic cloves. The scapes taste strongly of garlic and can be used any time you would normally use garlic.  I have also used them in place of spring onions.

My little boy and I planted a row of garlic just outside my back door so, as my husband jokes, there will be no problems with vampires in this house!
