Green Garlic
I picked up some green garlic at the farmer's market today. Any suggestions on recipes to fully utilize their flavor? They smell wonderful but I'm not quite sure what to do with them.

If you have the ones that look like "green onions" as opposed to garlic scapes, then I have simply sliced them up in any saute or stir-fry. My first experience with them was in a fresh salsa. Food process with good canned tomato, chipotles in adobo, lime and maybe a touch of sugar. Salt to taste. Let rest so flavors settle. With home fried corn tortilla chips or purchased fresh from a resto- a meal in itself.

Yes they are the ones that look like green onions but a definite garlic scent. Thank you for the suggestions. Salsa is a great idea!

i get something like these in chinatown a lot. usually slice them up and stir fry over high heat with thinly sliced beef or lamb, with a dash of soy sauce and sesame oil.

We chopped finely and added to some goat cheese (chevre) along with some herbs (and a bit of milk to loosen it). It made a wonderful spread. I love the salsa recipe - I'll have to try that too.

Wait! I forgot to list the cilantro- lots of it- well of course unless you are one of the supertasters that tastes it like soap.

I've turned garlic scapes into a sort of pesto before that was very nice.

Love garlic scapes. We just saute them. It's too bad they are gone so quickly.

We made pesto with ours, too. We froze them for later.
