Yay for garlic scape season! I'll have to look for those at the farmer's market.

Ears of popcorn? Is there something special about certain corn that makes it good for popping? (Or is "corn for popping" not the correct way to interpret that?)

[magid]

I'm not sure whether this was dried because it was good for popping; I assume they know the varietals that are better for fresh or for dried. Just usually, popcorn kernels aren't still attached to the cob.

(I ended up giving this to friends; I suspect it's simpler to deal with this via a microwave, which I don't have, and I'm not into popcorn anyway.)
