Garlic Scapes

From Monroe Farm Market

<p>Garlic scapes, which emerge from hard neck garlic varieties in June, these seed stalks curl upward as they grow. Snipping off the scapes before the seeds develop, more energy goes into developing a larger garlic bulb.</p> <p>When the garlic scapes are still in full curl, they are tender and succulent. They have a taste that is milder than the garlic cloves, and have a broad spectrum of uses from soup to salads to garnishes.</p> <p>The garlic scape is an allium delicacy that is highly prized and traditionally used in Southern, Eastern European, Middle Eastern, and Korean cuisine because of its subtle garlic flavor and tender-crisp texture.<br /> Storage:</p> <p>Garlic scapes store well. You can keep them in the refrigerator for approximately 1 month, though fresh-cut is always the best. You can remove the stalk tip above the pod before using.</p> <p>Preparation:</p> <p>Scapes tend to get tough and/or loose flavor if overcooked, so start simple. To learn how much cooking is enough and how much is too much, cut scapes to desired lengths and sauté in a little olive oil over medium heat, adding salt and pepper to taste. The end result should be a side dish that is elegant and tasty. Try some of these other ideas:</p> <p>Garlic Scape Ideas:<br /> - You can add sliced scapes to any stir fry recipe. <br /> - Slice and sprinkle over any pasta, or slice and cook them in almost any sauce recipe. <br /> - Chop and add to guacamole or fresh salsa.<br /> - Chop and mix with softened cream cheese or butter for a unique spread for sandwiches or bagels.<br /> - Add chopped fresh scapes when serving a light garlic soup; can also add them to buttered, French bread floated on the soup. <br /> - Use them as you would green onions, they&#8217;re just better. <br /> - Chop and add raw to salads.<br /> - Add to toppings for bruschetta or pizza.<br /> - An excellent addition to stocks&#8230;.and much Asian cuisine. <br /> - Put in Thai chicken/basil/coconut soup.</p> <p>Roasted Garlic Scapes<br /> Take the scapes and put them in a lightly oiled roasting pan, top with salt (kosher or seas salt works best but any will do). Put the loaded and covered pan in a hot (425 °F) oven for 30 to 45 minutes or until they are beginning to turn brown. Serve as a side or main dish. Tastes like roasted garlic but creamier.</p>
