Equipment

  • Grill

Ingredients

  • Roughly 15 Garlic Scapes
  • 2 Tablespoons Olive Oil
  • 1 teaspoon Kosher Salt
  • Several Grinds Freshly Ground Black Pepper

Instructions

  • Prepare garlic scapes by cutting of all of the grassy tip above the bud. Snap the garlic scape bottom off at the lowest it will snap at the bottom and then cut off the bottom three inches above that point (the bottom of the scape is deceptively fibrous).

  • Put Garlic Scapes in a large bowl. Drizzle the olive oil over them and then sprinkle the salt and pepper. Use hands or tongs to thoroughly coat the scapes in the oil.
