What's the difference between green garlic and garlic scapes? Green garlic is immature garlic pulled to thin the field, whereas garlic scapes are the flowering stalks farmers cull from hardnecked garlic to promote bulb growth. Both have a mild, garlic flavor and can be at their best when simply chopped up and added to salads or otherwise used as you might use a green onion or scallion.
