Grown at the Hudson Valley Seed Co., Elephant Garlic is related to garlic, but is actually a different species; it is more closely related to leeks. Milder in flavor than regular garlic, it is delicious roasted and used as a spread, or added to sautéed dishes. An added benefit are the giant scapes, which are a highly prized, gourmet treat.
Elephant Garlic can be stored for up to 10 months if well-cured and handled after harvest. Elephant Garlic is sold in bags of 10 cloves, which is approximately half a pound.
