Ingredient Spotlight: Garlic Scapes
Garlic scapes are the flower stalks that hardneck garlic plants send up in late spring and early summer. Farmers and gardeners often trim these scapes to direct the plant’s energy back into the bulb, to encourage the plant to spend its energy making larger garlic bulbs!
Ingredient Spotlight: Bok Choy
Bok choy, or pak choi in British English, is a staple in Asian cuisine. It has a crisp texture and a mild flavor, with a hint of mustard-like pepperiness, making it a very versatile ingredient.

Umami is often described as the fifth taste, discovered by Japanese scientist Kikunae Ikeda in the early 20th century.
