Notes

Cooking Tips - Use a heavy-bottomed skillet for this recipe, if you have one. It will distribute the heat more evenly. I don't recommend using a cast iron skillet for this, though as there's acid (vinegar) in this recipe.
Storage - Uncooked scapes will keep for up to 2 weeks in the crisper drawer of your refrigerator. You can store the cooked scapes in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Reheating - warm in a skillet (not a microwave) to keep them a little crunchy.
