I love asparagus too.<br /><br />fullfreezer, hmm grilled scapes. I hadn't thought of that one. It also sounds like a good way to get rid of a lot of scapes all at once.<br /><br />Dan, I've read they are more tender if you pick them right away. There is such debate over when or if you should take off the scapes. <br /><br />DirtDigger, yes they are just the flowers from garlic plants (hardnecks usually). Last fall I planted four different kinds of garlic to see what would grow well here. The scapes are just a nice bonus. The real harvest will be laster.<br /><br />jaxter, Oh that sounds good. I like the recipe from Mother Earth News too. I would think they would go really well with tomatoes.Daphne Gouldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17305049560953735881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3698134075709295915.post-1675693453445670072009-06-15T00:26:28.734-04:002009-06-15T00:26:28.734-04:00I meant to send you a recipe!

You might be interested in the following article on scapes in Mother Earth news: http://www.motherearthnews.com/Real-Food/2005-10-01/Garlic-Scapes.aspx?utm_medium=email&utm_source=iPost<br /><br />My recipe is: sliced chorizo, onion, scapes (fried up with a little oil) then add chopped blace kale, sliced raw potato, fresh parsley, thyme, bay, dried pepper flakes, S&P and cook down with a little water until soft. Serve up with crusty bread and feta cheese crumbled on top. Excellent with a tempranillo or grenache!jaxternoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3698134075709295915.post-54361499884530124652009-06-15T00:16:25.443-04:002009-06-15T00:16:25.443-04:00I know I didn't offer a recipe- thanks for sha...I know I didn't offer a recipe- thanks for sharing! I used to get these in my order when I purchased organics groceries from a company that would deliver weekly here. I didn't even know what they were- I'd just chop up a few and add them to all sorts of meals. Did you start these? I would love to grow them sometime- I need input, Daphne :) please advise with an email!Tessahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12357951823874888877noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3698134075709295915.post-67259274832999924352009-06-14T23:12:03.338-04:002009-06-14T23:12:03.338-04:00I still have not picked my scapes off, most have d...I still have not picked my scapes off, most have done a double curl already. I will have to try your dressing, I bet it would be really good on a cesar salad. They would make a nice pesto too, then freeze them in cubes.Danhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07743102355360873845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3698134075709295915.post-50640684959524633742009-06-14T22:49:52.017-04:002009-06-14T22:49:52.017-04:00It all sounds Yummy!

Not something I would do if I didn't already have the grill going but great all the same. You have to watch them carefully so they don't dry out but they are great.<br />JudyJudy Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01121300109427407095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3698134075709295915.post-58638738567717453532009-06-14T18:53:00.514-04:002009-06-14T18:53:00.514-04:00Tonight we used garlic scapes (raw) and asparagus ...Tonight we used garlic scapes (raw) and asparagus (blanched) along with toasted hazelnuts, cheese, and olive oil to make a pest of sorts. We saved the top halves of the asparagus and put the bottom halves into the pesto. So we had pasta with asparagus & scape pesto with asparagus spears. Very garlicy and very good :)Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00500390722832190990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3698134075709295915.post-83024324766040239872009-06-14T16:56:16.965-04:002009-06-14T16:56:16.965-04:00Sounds like a delicious recipe Daphne.
