Pickles with panache

With a pleasing crunch and mellow flavor, garlic scapes make such a versatile pickle.
Here are a few ways to enjoy these curly delights:

Pickled scapes give a fantastic upgrade to everyday sandwiches. Finely dice and blend with softened cream cheese, then slather on bread and top with your favourite fresh veggies. Add some smoked salmon for a special touch.

Or enjoy layered into a simple lettuce & tomato sandwich with a touch of goat cheese.

They add a delicious briny element to fish of all kinds. Try them baked atop parchment wrapped fish fillets with lemon slices.

They’re a gorgeous garnish to grazing boards and cocktails.
