I believe the whole plant is edible, but I was planning on pulling the plant for the bulbs (which should be shallot sized) and re-planting the sets for next year.
My wife made a salad tonight with a stalk used in place of scallions. I liked the flavor a lot. Tasted like scallions with the heat of strong garlic. I’m a fan. 😀
🤤 love that garlic heat. We’ve got lots of hardnecks coming up on picking, some landrace variety of chives from our neighbor’s great grandfather, and ramps (Allium tricoccum) but maybe I can convince the wife we need another allium.

That’s my understanding as well, though my experience with them is limited
