Garlic Scape Marinade: Peak Season Intensity in Every Spoonful

Garlic scapes—those vibrant green stalks that curl from the tops of garlic bulbs—are one of early summer’s most unique and flavorful offerings. At Katchkie Farm, we harvest them in abundance for just a short window each year. Their bold, fresh flavor makes them perfect for preserving, and this rich, savory marinade is one of our favorite ways to capture that intensity.
This recipe layers two preparations—Garlic Scape Confit and Smoked Garlic Scape Vinegar—into a deeply flavorful base that adds depth to grilled meats, roasted vegetables, and grain bowls. It’s one of the more complex condiments in the Katchkie Pantry, showcasing how preservation methods like confiting and infusion can turn a short-lived ingredient into something that lasts all season long.
