Garlic scape season and what to do with five hundred scapes, all ready at once?<\/p>\n
Other years, I\u2019ve chopped and frozen them in ziplock bags, grabbing handfuls all winter long for stir fries and spaghetti sauce. Or I made and froze pesto in ice cube trays (water based and olive oil based, the water based was better).\u00a0This year, inspired by my sister who used her dehydrator to make garlic powder last year, I dried them and made garlic scape powder.<\/p>\n\n
It\u2019s really good! A more subtle garlic flavour that, as DH says, \u201ccreeps up on you\u201d. I imagine it would be great on popcorn, as well as making a good cookery seasoning. Two big brown paper grocery sacks full made about six cups of powder. That means it\u00a0takes up WAY less space than my other methods. Plus it doesn\u2019t depend on a freezer.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n And if we don\u2019t get through it all before next spring when the scapes are ready again, it will be great to sprinkle over my chickens\u2019 food as a spring tonic.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Garlic scape season and what to do with five hundred<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[21,22,24],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2884","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-farm-life","category-farm-produce","category-gardening"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/thestablecomicstore.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2884","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/thestablecomicstore.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/thestablecomicstore.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thestablecomicstore.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thestablecomicstore.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2884"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/thestablecomicstore.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2884\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/thestablecomicstore.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2884"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thestablecomicstore.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2884"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thestablecomicstore.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2884"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
