About Garlic scapes

Garlic scapes are the tender, green stalks that sprout from hardneck garlic plants. Widely used in Asian, Mediterranean, and North American cuisines, they offer a mild garlic flavor with a hint of sweetness and are prized for their versatility in stir-fries, pestos, soups, and salads. Rich in nutrients, garlic scapes are a source of vitamins C and A, essential for immune support and eye health, respectively, along with manganese, a mineral vital for bone health and metabolism. They contain antioxidants and sulfur compounds linked to heart health and anti-inflammatory benefits. Low in calories and carbohydrates, garlic scapes are a nutrient-dense addition to any dish without contributing to excess fat or sugar intake. Their fresh, zesty flavor makes them a healthy way to enhance your meals with minimal effort.
