Garlic is a really popular vegetable so I choose to plant garlic that is less preferred to the harvest of summer
After several lovely summers of growing my own garlic, I've decided to plant some in my backyard. We aren't growing onions or tomatoes, so this won't be the garden preparation I'm used to. Hopefully, though, I won't live too long before we plant our first mushrooms. If you’re a novice to growing garlic, this article can take you from seedling to vinaigrette in a breeze.
Garlic stands for a lot of things. Whether you plant it in the ground or in pots, it is a mainstay of Chinese and Mexican cuisine. Why? Simply because it brings with it advantages that you can’t find anywhere else. (No, I am not a Chinese and I’m not Mexican—just a young baker—so I can’t vouch for cultural opinions.)
Let me explain.
Garlic gives you lots of garlic benefits.
Drinking apple cider
Garlic helps with fermentation. Studies have found that garlic juice and water tastes exactly like apples cider. I realize a glass of apple cider is a little out of my reach, but buying and selling tap water is a little easier now—if you need to give your river the disinfectant it needs.
Let’s add garlic to the coffee tradition
To take the filling out of coffee, boiled water must be boiled for around 24 hours. This is what garlic is. On an average day in the early part of February, I’m drinking more water than I’ve had in years, which must mean that garlic is growing and doing its thing.
Spice up pasta
Okay, maybe not a great use for your garlic plants, but a toast to Italian cooking is worthy of it. When cooking garlic, I do this:
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 recipe medium-sweet Italian sausage
1 cup onion
1 tablespoon garlic paste
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
2 cups whole milk
chopped garlic, see recipe
4 teaspoons dried basil
1 teaspoon salt
4 tablespoons Italian parsley
1 teaspoon garlic salt
3 tablespoons garlic salt
5-6 cups chicken stock
Put garlic in a skillet with olive oil, then leave it to warm and poach for approximately 6 minutes until garlic is soft.
