What Are Garlic Scapes, How To Use Them & Why You'll LOVE Them
We plant garlic around October and harvest it a good 9 or 10 months later, so why are we talking about garlic in June?
Scapes! These are an overlooked and misunderstood part of garlic, so I want to talk all about 'em.
Garlic scapes are the flowering part of a hard neck variety. I like growing hard neck varieties for a couple of reasons, and this is a big one.
Scapes taste like mild garlic, and you can use them in so many ways!
Not only do we get something to enjoy, but this will redirect the plant's energy back to the bulb. This helps you get bigger, juicier harvests! If you don't harvest them, you'll end up with a flower that's super pretty but may not be helping you towards your end goal of growing food.
Garlic can sometimes have a mind of its own, so be on the lookout for scapes this time of year. They're a built-in freebie, so I definitely recommend harvesting them if they show up!
