What is Allium Sativum ssp. Ophioscorodon?

Allium Sativum ssp. Ophioscorodon, also known as hardneck garlic, is a species of garlic known for its firm stalk, distinctive scapes (flower stalks), and rich, robust flavor. Unlike softneck garlic, this variety forms a central stalk that grows a beautiful, curling scape, which makes it not only a culinary delight but also a visually interesting addition to floral arrangements.

Hardneck garlic is prized for its bold, complex flavor, which is highly sought after by chefs and home cooks alike. The cloves are easy to peel, and the garlic bulbs tend to be larger and more flavorful than their softneck counterparts. The curling scapes also offer an aesthetic appeal, often used in floral designs to add unique texture and form.

1. Storage: Store the garlic bulbs in a cool, dry place with good air circulation. Avoid refrigeration as it may cause the bulbs to sprout prematurely.
