Garlic scapes are the serpentine curls on the top of developing garlic plants, removed by growers to enhance growth of the underground bulb. They are milder than regular garlic, but still have enough 'zip' to satisfy garlic lovers. This quick and easy pesto, equally good on pasta or vegetables, is an ideal way to take advantage of their very short window of availability.

Cooking Tips & Advice
Garlic Yield | Garlic Preparation | Garlic Cooking | Tips Garlic A bulbous plant consisting of single head containing smaller bulbs or cloves individually wrapped in papery skins, which are all wrapped tightly together with another layer of dry papery skin, forming the bulb head.
Garlic When selecting, choose garlic that is plump and firm with paper-like skins that are tight and intact. Avoid any that are soft or that have begun to shrivel. Place garlic cloves in the microwave for 15 seconds and the skins should peel off easily.
Glossary Terms
The narrow stalk that forms as a seed head from the garlic plant. As the Garlic begins to grow, a curved stalk starts to form and continues to grow as the plant matures.
A container that is built for the purpose of storing garlic cloves or bulbs. Small and most often round in shape with a loosely fitted top, the garlic pot can be placed in a kitchen area on a counter for ease of access.

Although there are garlic pots that are made specifically to store garlic, some garlic bakers are used as storage devices if constructed of a material such as terracotta that absorbs moisture and if the device has a way to circulate air so mold does not begin to grow on the garlic.
A food seasoning that is mainly a mixture of garlic and black pepper with other seasonings such as onion, sweet peppers, and salt added, depending on the provider.
