I am someone who suffers from severe cold extremities, so I fear winter 🤧🤧

For those suffering from cold extremities, it is said to be helpful and to promote smooth blood circulation, so I, a woman whose body tends to be cold, usually eat garlic scape dishes almost every day.

Let me tell you about my garlic scape dish^^

✔️ How to choose garlic scapes

Garlic scapes, also called garlic sprouts or garlic stalks, have a spicy taste but are not as intense as garlic itself, so they are often used in vegetable dishes. To enjoy a fresh and crunchy flavor, it is recommended to choose those produced in June. Fresh ones are said to have a deep green color, with straight stems and good elasticity.^^

I grow garlic at my parents' house, so I always bring some to eat like this haha😁

(Helpful Tip) My personal secret to reducing cold hands and feet♡

✔️ Benefits of garlic scapes

Garlic and garlic scapes are rich in allicin, which is said to help prevent blood clots, lower cholesterol levels, and purify the blood.^^

It is good food for cardiovascular patients suffering from hypertension, myocardial infarction, hyperlipidemia, or arteriosclerosis. It has a warm nature, which helps to warm the body and alleviate cold hands and feet, and is said to be beneficial for people who often have a cold lower abdomen and indigestion 👍😍

Garlic scapes are low in calories, making them effective for dieting, and are rich in dietary fiber, which helps prevent fat accumulation in the body and also aids in preventing obesity~~ The beta-carotene component helps eliminate active oxygen in the body, thereby slowing aging.

Moreover, garlic chives contain vitamin C, which is absent in garlic, helping to reduce skin blemishes such as dark spots and wrinkles, and promoting collagen production for firm and elastic skin.

Additionally, garlic scapes are said to have antioxidant properties and immune-boosting effects. They increase glutathione, known as an antioxidant, to protect against viruses, bacteria, and various diseases. Rich in allicin and beta-carotene, they help eliminate toxins and waste accumulated in the body, and they also expel heavy metals and harmful substances that enter the body through fine dust and yellow dust.

Garlic scape stir-fry dish

This is a dish made by lightly blanching garlic scapes, then adding soy sauce-based seasoning and stir-frying with corn syrup. It's a side dish I really love haha. Just this one is enough to finish a bowl of rice!!☺️

I simply stir-fried garlic scapes, but if you stir-fry them with dried shrimp or dried anchovies, it’s even more nutritious and tastes better^^

Garlic scape pickles

Isn't it disappointing if you miss out on eating meat?? Haha

Make a sweet and sour pickled garlic scapes and keep them in the refrigerator to enjoy anytime.

It's usually good to eat garlic together when eating meat.

It's also a great dish as a substitute for garlic^^

Side effects of garlic scapes

Garlic is a food with almost no side effects, and garlic scapes can also be considered to have few side effects.

Since it contains warm ingredients, it is said to be more suitable for people with a cold constitution rather than those with a high fever.

Also, since it has a sharp, pungent taste like spicy garlic, consuming it excessively may cause stomach pain or abdominal discomfort, so people with stomach issues are advised to eat only a small amount.^^

Garlic scapes that are truly free of any defects like this!!

Cooking it as a side dish makes it both delicious and easy to eat, so it has become my favorite food🩷

I often eat garlic scapes to alleviate severe cold hands and feet.🙆‍♀️
