@GulfCoastJaguarundi They hav garlic scapes!? wow the only way to get some here is to grow your own garlic lol

[jihadacadien]

@GulfCoastJaguarundi Cool, did you think about mking some ? ;) and yeah the scapes are pretty great green

[ghostofpaulrevere]

OH ya I forgot to mention, awesome recipe! I didnt know you could eat the garlic stalks (scapes?). And if you cant get pine nuts in NB, then use Walnuts! It tastes really really good too.

[jihadacadien]

@ghostofpaulrevere Well it's like the flower buds of the plant.Yeah I know now about the walnuts...might try it out with my basil.

[ghostofpaulrevere]

I like these kind of videos! Cooking and just hanging out. Sometime you should do another Day in the Life of Jihadacadien!

[jihadacadien]

@ghostofpaulrevere lol I just might since we are only getting rain....it would turn into a gaming video tho lol

[MIgardener]

[jihadacadien]

@MIgardener Yeah i only got 3 plants, I really need a bigger greenhouse ;)

[dulce3tat]

You know my neighbor just gave me some of this garlic and it was so good!! I saute my too but with some steak it was good! I liked your video and the pesto looked good! That would be good on a sandwich! *_* Rock on!

[jihadacadien]

[ukgardener1]

Wow ive not seen this cooked before but have heard it can be done, thanks for sharing

[jihadacadien]

@ukgardener1 Yeah I really liked them in butter ;)

[garygardens]

I grew garlic this year for the first time and I found the scapes are really tasty. Now I wish I had a lot more. Cook them along with some potatoes and shallots in olive oil. Yummy.

Regards, Gary

[jihadacadien]

@garygardens Oh yeah I loved them too....now I only hope my garlic will be good his Fall.

[ttitanic121]

We went to the "Farm" today & were talking about pesto,huh...Thanks for the ideas....picked some spanish onions,big hot peppers & eggplants...tomatoes were poor from the lack of rain...

[jihadacadien]

@ttitanic121 cool, and we have too much rain here =S

[TheVittleVlog]

Cool idea...looks great!!

[jihadacadien]

@TheVittleVlog thanks

[VivianRinSC]

Yummy! Pesto can be made from anything! ;)

[jihadacadien]

@VivianRinSC I guess so......this gives me ideas ;)

[powrxplor69]

Damn! I thought I used too much salt lol....looks really good though. I gotta try making that pesto

[jihadacadien]

@powrxplor69 ;)

[gardenvespers777]

Very cool salted garlic greens! How long does that last? Do you have to leave the lid off for a while before it dries out?

I started drying out my basil. That was easy, just pick it wash it and put it out on a paper towl to dry for a few weeks. Came out great! I'll use that in the winter. (for some reason I'm not a "pesto person" lol.but I like to cook with some basil)

[jihadacadien]

@gardenvespers777 Oh no you can keep it in the fridge for a very very long time. But I have to say it's not as tasty as the ones made with onion chives. I still have some basil from last year and the greenhouse ones are growing very well

[curiosidadesextrano]

The pesto looks really good. But hold up on that salt lol. Thanks for sharing your recipes...looking forward to seeing more.

[jihadacadien]

@curiosidadesextrano lol well that was all the salt for the whole bach...plus it,s nothing compaired to store bought
