Certified Organic Fresh Garlic Scapes
Hand harvested fresh on-farm and shipped right to your door during early summer scape season. Free Shipping!
Garlic Scapes are one of our favorite things about growing hardneck garlic! Garlic Scapes have a wonderful mild garlic flavor that are super versatile in the kitchen. The garlic scape is an allium delicacy that is highly prized and traditionally used in Southern & Eastern European, as well as various Asian cuisines. Since they are especially seasonal & availability is limited, we recommend stocking up. Garlic scapes freeze well so it’s easy to have them on hand throughout the year.

- Pickle them by using a “Dilly Bean” canning recipe found in many canning cookbooks.
- Make a big batch of Garlic Scape Pesto (see recipe below!) and freeze in small portions.
- Chop into small bits in a food processor and freeze in ice cube trays to use as a seasoning.
- Add to your other canned goods, such as pickled cucumbers or beets for a lovely garlicky flavor.
What is a Garlic Scape?
A Garlic Scape is the edible flower stem that grows off the center of the garlic plant. Appearing from the finest hardneck garlic varieties, the scape curls upward as they grow. If left on the plant, they ultimately straighten, and then grows little seed-like bulbs. By snipping off the scape before the seeds develop, more energy goes into making a bigger garlic bulb. When the young garlic scapes are still in “full curl”, they are tender and delicious!

TASTY KEENE GARLIC RECIPE
Garlic Scape Pesto
We love having this pesto on hand & recommend making enough to freeze. Divine over warm handmade pasta. Especially lovely mixed into cream cheese for a flavorful dip/spread. A versatile way to add a punch of flavor to grilled chicken or veggies.
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup garlic scapes, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- 2-3 cups of grated Parmesan cheese to taste (use real cheese – not grated from the container)
- Salt to taste (optional)
- Fresh cracked pepper
- Put garlic scapes & lemon juice in a food processor. Pulse until scapes are roughly chopped.
- With food processor pulsing, slowly add the olive oil through the tube and pulse until mixed. You can add more oil until you get your desired consistency.
- Remove lid & add 1/2 of the Parmesan cheese. Pulse until combined.
- Remove lid again & add remaining Parmesan cheese, salt & freshly cracked pepper. Pulse again until combined.
- Enjoy right away or portion into small containers for freezing. Small mason jars are our go-to. We love having this on hand, ready to use throughout the year!
***A note about nuts: We don’t add nuts to our pesto because we find that it makes it more versatile. If you know you always love a nutty texture/flavor to your pesto, add 1/8 c. or so of pine nuts, walnuts or sunflower seeds.
