Rare vegetable --- Garlic scapes are not found in most grocery stores, but they grow in my garden every year for free. Today I harvested a small batch, and fried some chopped up in oil, to go with leftovers.

We found that garlic scapes are the best pickled food. Specially if you eat them freshly pickled while they are crunchy.

I never heard of pickled scapes, but after your comment, I searched online and see that is something other people do.

We were going to start a business that exclusively focused on garlic and we spent a lot of time researching and experimenting with garlic stuff. The next thing for you to play with is garlic flowers. They are great.
