We're seeing green garlic in our markets now. Green garlic is immature garlic (not scapes, which are blossom stems) pulled before the bulb splits into cloves. It's very mild. Substitute 2 green onions and 1 clove garlic if you don't have it where you live... Directions given on each recipe. And another favorite spring vegetable - asparagus, is here.
