This week's most asked question: What is this curly thing on the free extras table? They were garlic scapes. The season for these is short. We may have them one more time, but they won't come much more than that. Cross your fingers, because they are just delicious.
At our house, we use the garlic scapes just like we would a chive or scallion. Chopped in a salad, omelet, or such. I may be making a big ol' mac and cheese later, and I was thinking of substituting the scapes for the onion.
I did some Googling this morning and found some great resources on the scapes and their use. From Mary Jane Butter, here's a great description and a couple recipes.
