Recipe Introduction


Raw Scape Pesto
Garlic scapes make a pesto that is a pretty green color and a knock-
your-socks-off rich garlic flavor. If this pesto is too strong for
your taste, add mayonnaise or sour cream to dilute by 1/1 or even
2/1.



List of Ingredients




½ lb. scapes (chopped into 1" sections)
1½ c. olive oil
2 c. grated parmesan cheese


Recipe




In a blender, combine the scapes and olive oil. Pour mixture into
bowl and blend the cheese in by hand. Can be used as a cracker or
pizza spread. Can be frozen in plastic ice cube trays and used
later - this applies to the other pestos, dips, and dressings as
well. Wrap cubes individually with plastic wrap, place in a freezer
bag and return to freezer. Use all year for making bruschetta, with
pasta or pizza.
ALSO, in garlic bread: 2 or 3 thawed scape/oil cubes works great as
a substitute for the oil in baked bread.
