Hello Amy. As you probably know, we've been unusually busy, plus it has been so hot and humid, we haven't been in the garden a lot. We run in early in the morning and get back inside as quick as possible. Yesterday and today we finally saw some relief and did a lot of weed pulling. In the meantime, if you'd like to see more of our garden updates, we can send you our free Directory and Index Guide to all of our first 950 garden videos, arranged by Topic of Interest, from A-Z. It's our 21-page eBook with UA-cam hotlinks to each garden video, for easy access day or night. If you'd like your free copy, email: lynn@WisconsinGarden.com and add 'A-Z' in your message.

It has been miserably hot and humid here in Ohio as well. Getting my watering done is about all the outside time I’ve been able to do myself. I understand the weeds. I have some that are out of control in one of my beds. I hope it cools off a little soon here so I can get back outside to my gardens. Thank you again for posting your videos. I look forward to my time watching the two of you. I know it’s strange, but it is sentimental for me, as it’s like I’m getting to garden with my mother again.
Hi Scott. Isn't this silly. Richard went back and reproduced the video, deleted the old one on UA-cam and resubmitted it and it worked just like all the others. He has no idea as to what caused the problem in the first place. Just finished watching "About Time' with Amy Adams about her boyfriend/husband going back in time to fix life. How appropriate. Thanks for the FB Chats. Richard & Lynn
Rather than spreading the mixture flat and freezing it, you could roll it into small logs and freeze it. That way all you have to do is just slice off as much as you want and pop it back into the freezer. I make several different kinds of compound Butters using the herbs from my garden. Chive butter, thyme butter and basil butter are personal favorites. I'm going to have to try this recipe, it looked absolutely yummy!
Hi Martha. That's a great idea. I think I would have to double bag it so that your freezer doesn't smell like garlic. We had it again this evening on our fresh vegetables and also on our roast. Brought a lot of smiles of tasty delight on Richard's face as well. Give it a try and report back on how yours turn out.

I have just enough scapes left over from making my scape pesto (the pesto is just scapes/olive oil/parmesan/walnuts) to make a 1/4 batch of the scape butter. Richard's idea of using the mortar and pestle is perfect for the small batch I'll be making. I'm thinking it would make a dandy garlic bread, too. I've made cheddar scape buttermilk biscuits, and the oven does tame the garlic pungency a bit. I loved the Oleo story. My mother, who is 80, told me about that when I was a youngster, and I remember being so perplexed about the orange food color to turn the Oleo yellow. I think my grandmother was still calling margarine "Oleo" until she died in 1995. Thank goodness for real butter! Thanks for the great scape butter idea. Connie in Pewaukee
Good morning Connie. We added some on our vegetables and main course last night for super. It's really good if I say so myself. This was the first year I made some, but won't be my last. Richard was a bit surprised at how tough garlic can be considering he spent a lot of time trying to pulverize his little batch. He goal was to turn it into a paste but that didn't happen despite adding more olive oil. While filming the memory of my mother and Oleo popped into my head and I had to share, especially to those who never experienced this part of Wisconsin history. We hope all is well in Pewaukee and missed our days on the beach. I took one of my all-time favorite photos of Richard on the dock one early evening with his ever ready camera in hand. I'm proud to say, it's a classic. Stay safe and enjoy less humidity today. Thank you again for taking time to watch and share. Lynn & Richard - www.WisconsinGarden.com
Thanks loved the video! I'm in Illinois and cut my scapes into 2 inch pieces and put them in a dehydrater, oh boy was that a potent scent! Then when they were dry I put them in my coffee grinder, now I have my homemade garlic powder! It's great!

Hi Lynn! I freeze my garlic in Masson's jars so no smell in the freezer. I cut scapes, blanche them and freeze them in mini Masson's jars to make butter, soups all year long. I also make pesto with a lot of oil, a bit of salt & vinnager or lemon juice & store it in Masson's jars in the refrigerator. Thank you so much for your recipe videos, well appreciated!

Hi, I laughed several times down here in Urbana watching this interaction between the two of you. I love flavored butter and make mine with chives from my garden. I freeze my flavored butter in silicone ice cube trays all the time, let them fully freeze and then pop them into ziploc bags for the freezer. I plop a big amount of the flavored butter on a cutting board and use one of those counter top bench scraper things and spread the butter over the top of the entire ice cube tray. Never had a problem with them unable to pop out of ice cube trays or sticking together in freezer bags. I loved this vid. TY
Hello Josh. That is what Richard is encouraging me to do next time. I think I will give it a try, but I'll have to buy an extra set of tray just for garlic butter.

Why not put the scape butter in a piping bag and squeeze out dots? You would need a large bag and large tip, put that on the wax paper tray and then freeze it. You get the perfect tablespoon portion in a cute decorative dot. I used to work in a restaurant and this is exactly what we did, we made garlic butter pats, or honey butter pats... we would take them out of the freezer each day and keep the fridge until we served it. Works best in Tupperware, like dots candy, you cut the sheets with the pat on it and stack the sheets on top of each other once they harden up. This prevents them from sticking together. 1. Make butter 2. Put in a large piping bag with a large piping tip to avoid chunks clogging the tip. 3. Pipe tablespoon sized dots onto a baking sheet lined with wax paper. 4. Place dot filled sheet into the freezer 5. Take hardened dots and cut into smaller sheets to fit in a Tupperware storage container, plastic bags work too. Slip the dot filled sheets into the container, stack them on top of each other to avoid sticking. 6. Place finished product back into the freezer. When you need it you just pluck it off the frozen sheet! 😊

Hello Nessa. Actually, we rarely water our gardens. That is Mother Nature's responsibility. We don't water our lawn and hen we do use our garden hose, it's to water our dahlias in our sunken containers and the 3 tomatoes in containers on our driveway. Always be mindful, despite the hot and humid summer so far, over-watering can also have a negative affect by encouraging fungus, mold and pests you don't want in your garden. For those who feel the need to water, it's important to water the base of a plant or vegetable earlier in the morning while avoiding getting the foliage wet. The only other plants that we would water are newly planted flowers, bushes or trees. We would thoroughly water them once a day for the first 2-weeks, then every other day for 2 more weeks, then as needed, using the finger test, moist is good, and only when the top 4-6" of soil appears dry. if you'd like to see more of our prior garden updates, we can send you a "Free Copy of our ' Directory Index to all of our first 950 garden videos, arranged by Topic of Interest, from A-Z.

Research says Freezing will last a similar amount of time as compared to dehydrated ones. However, this method is ideal for dishes where the scapes will be cooked quickly, rather than given the time to hydrate (such as dehydrated scapes in a slow-cooking soup. TKS L&R
