Put This Green Garlic Butter on Your Toast This Weekend

Infusing your butter with green garlic* sounds like a no-brainer. Try it this weekend and let us know what you think! As The New York Times' "A Good Appetite" food columnist Melissa Clark writes in her latest column, "Green garlic has the spirit of regular garlic, but at a gentle whisper rather than an aggressive roar. It’s a springtime treat that you shouldn’t pass up if you see it. And if you do see it, take home the stalks and put them in everything." Get the recipe here.

Make garlic compound butter and toast this weekend and tell us about it! Send us a picture of your green garlic toasts on Twitter (use our handle @LeonardLopate) or share on our Facebook Page! (Or tell us how it went on the showpage below!)

*If you can't find green garlic you can use a little less regular garlic and add something herbal (try basil or dill!)
