GARLIC SCAPE PESTO
Garlic scapes, the curled flower from the top of a garlic plant, are abundant at farmers markets and CSAs (community supported agriculture shares) in spring and make an easy, fragrant pesto that can be spread on bread or crackers, put on pasta, used with fish, and as a substitute for garlic, onion, or scallions! Add to sandwiches, pasta, lamb, and fish dishes. Tastes great mixed with mayo.

GARLIC SCAPE SOUP
I haven't tried this yet because it's been too hot for soup, and I haven't had enough garlic scapes at any one time to make it! It sounds yummy though. The recipe did not give cooking times, so I'll have to let you know once I make it.

GARLIC SCAPE AND BASIL PESTO
Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- Add the garlic scapes, basil, and kosher salt to a food processor or blender .
- Pulse a couple of times to achieve a rough mixture.
- Slowly start adding 1/2 cup of the olive oil.
- Stop processing and scrape down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula.
- The texture of the final pesto is up to personal taste. If the sauce seems too thick for your preference, add 2 tablespoons of olive oil at a time and check again for your ideal consistency.
- Once a smooth paste has been achieved, add 1/2 cup of the Parmesan cheese and process until completely mixed in. Taste for seasonings.
- Add the remaining cheese if you'd like a thicker and more savory paste, or leave as is if you're happy with the flavor and consistency so far.
- Add the pine nuts and process at low speed until the nuts are roughly chopped and fully mixed in. The coarse nuts give the pesto a great texture.
- Place the pesto in a serving bowl and refrigerate until ready to use. Top with a thin layer of olive oil and place in an airtight container if you're not consuming it right away.

- Cut the flower heads off the scapes and discard them. Chop the remaining stems into 2-inch pieces. In a saucepan, gently heat the stock over medium while you cook the scapes.
- Heat the oil in a large, heavy sauce pan over medium and cook the scapes for 10 to 15 minutes, stirring often, or until they soften. The timing will vary depending on how thick the scapes are. Add the salt, pepper and chili flakes and cook for a minute or two.
- Pour the hot stock over the scapes and cook with the lid askew, for 15 to 20 minutes or until the scapes are fully cooked and losing their bright green colour but have not turned dead-broccoli grey.
- Working in batches, purée the soup until smooth. You need to use a standard blender since an immersion blender won’t get the scapes smooth enough. Scapes can be a bit pulpy, so purée the soup well. Season to taste with more salt and pepper if needed. Keep the soup warm over low heat until you’re ready to serve.

- In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Then add the leeks with a sprinkle of kosher salt and saute until soft, 6-7 minutes. Adjust the heat as needed to keep the leeks from browning too much. A little browning is okay, but the leeks should still be mainly green.
- Add the garlic scapes and saute for 2-3 minutes. Then add the potatoes, 2 cups of chicken stock, salt, and pepper. Bring the soup to a simmer and cook until the potatoes are completely tender, 15-20 minutes.
- Take the soup off the heat; add in another 2 cups of chicken stock and the half and half. Then puree the soup until smooth in the blender. (You may need to do it in two batches.)
- Pour the soup into a bowl. Taste and add more stock, salt, or pepper as needed. Chill the soup for at least 4 hours in the refrigerator.
7 THINGS TO DO WITH GARLIC SCAPES RECIPE | THE CRISPER ...
From seriouseats.com
- Scape Pesto. Far and away my favorite use for garlic scapes is pesto, either straight-up or mixed with herbs like basil and dill. Pesto showcases raw scapes in all their glory.
- Grilled Scapes. Another great, and very different, way to showcase scapes is to grill them, tossed with a little olive oil, salt, and pepper, over direct heat for about two minutes.
- Scape Hummus. For the same reason they work well in pesto, scapes are a brilliant swap-in for garlic in your favorite homemade hummus. I think they work especially well in a lemony, tahini-free hummus, which really gives them a chance to shine.
- Scape Compound Butter. Scapes would make a lovely compound butter with a little lemon and maybe some fresh thyme. You could use the butter to make a tarted-up garlic bread, and I can't think of much (except maybe fruit—I do have some boundaries) that could be tossed on the grill but not finished with a nice slice of this melting goodness.
- Scapes as aromatic. To take a more utilitarian approach, you can slice scapes to whatever length you like and use them as you would garlic, as an aromatic in a wide variety of recipes.
- Scapes as Vegetable. Scapes also work well as a vegetable, cut into lengths and added to stir-fries or blanched and added to salads, much as you might use green beans.
- Scape Soup. Finally, I'd be remiss if I didn't point you toward Melissa Clark's recipe for double-garlic soup, which uses both scapes and green garlic.
