Garlic scapes are the green shoots that form on the growing bulb of garlic. You can pull the whole bulb while it is small - for spring garlic - or you can just use the green stalk. Either option you use, you can make wonderful garlic mashed potatoes.
Boil potatoes until soft, drain and put into a bowl. Chop up the scapes or the entire spring garlic bulb and sautee in butter. Add to potatoes in the bowl with butter to taste. Whip with a mixer or mash with a potato masher until desired consistancy.
