HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!
HAEGER 2012 #1 ($5)
(Is that right? Can you believe that I made it SIX Freakin' months, and JUST.NOW broke and brought home my First piece of HAEGER?! I'm blamin' Mom! We saw it at a sale last weekend, It was LOVE at first site - but I was trying to be strong and I walked away from it once, the people having the sale thought it was because of the price, so they knocked 50% off, it was C.H.E.A.P. originally, then @ 50% off it couldn't be left there... Mom gave it to J and I as "an early anniversary gift" 8-)
(NO, the 'Pink' isn't part of it. it is an upside down planter that I am currently using as a 'pedestal for it! Yes, it is secure by Museum adhesive.)
...and
The verdict is in on the ' GARLIC SCAPES'...
We tried them four different ways...
- Straight from the garden - VERY strong garlic flavored!!! Be warned!
- Made into a Pesto, no Basil used - on bread (far left) YUMMY!
- Made into a Marinade in food processor with a bit of Soy Sauce for Pork (Center) - Garlic flavor definitely mellows when cooked!
- Sauted whole with fresh Asparagus with a bit of EVOO - tasty, but again, hardly any Garlic flavor.
Overall SCAPES are a Keeper!! Best added at the end of cooking if you like the flavor of garlic - which we LOVE! Anybody out there ever had any experience with them???
Have a GREAT DAY!

I've never would have guessed that was a Haeger! I am halfway into the year with no picnic baskets or tablecloths. Oh, poor sad us. Ha!
I used to love garlic, but I can't eat it anymore. Those look really tasty though. Eat some for me!
