Garlic Greens
Very subtle garlic taste: stronger than chives, milder than cloves.
We planted our Garlic last October in our no till garden for a Summer Harvest.
Garlic is the only crop we grow that takes almost all year. We plant it in the fall & it is ready the following Summer.
Though the garlic won't be ready until July - the greens are ready & tasty.
We harvest the greens in early spring for a couple reasons. #1 they are DELICIOUS - but I am also in LOVE with Garlic... #2 If we trim the greens, the plant can focus more energy into forming the bulb.
Chop up and use as you would green onion or chives. Snip into salads, mix into cream cheese, garnish soups, add to fresh vegetable juices that you are blending. I like to snip a few up and add them to any greens I am quick sauteing.
