Saving my harvest to last as long as possible.
There are several methods for preserving garlic, each with its own benefits and drawbacks.
Scape Pesto
Garlic scape pesto is a versatile and delicious way to use up those curly green shoots.
Pick a pack of pickled… scapes?
One of my favorite ways to use scapes as an ingredient and preserve my harvest longer term is to pickle them. Pickled garlic scapes make an excellent garnish on a Ceasar, or a Bloody Mary.
Garlic is good! Garlic is great!
Garlic is a flavorful herb that has been used for its medicinal properties for centuries.
Better butter? Garlic scapes make it better.
Garlic scape herb butter is delicious spread on bread or crackers, melted over grilled meats or vegetables, or used as a seasoning for roasted potatoes or other vegetables.
Garlic, in all it’s glory!
The best way to enjoy garlic depends on personal taste and the specific dish or recipe being prepared. Knowing your way around garlic can really help boost your results.
