Answer 3

Oh my, yes! I love it. I eat it raw with anything "onionable" lol. I take whole cloves of garlic, cut off the the tops, drizzle with olive oil and sea salt, and bake at 350 till pretty and golden. Use to make garlic mashed potatoes, garlic butter, just squeeze the bulb out of the skin.

Answer 4

Garlic is great and great for you. I love roasted garlic. In case you have never tried this I will list the steps.

Preheat oven to 350
Separate the cloves from one head of garlic. Take the skins off each clove of garlic. Take a large piece of foil and place garlic cloves in the foil. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with kosher salt and ground black pepper. Wrap the foil very loosely around the garlic to make a tent. Place in oven for one hour. Remove from oven and when cool enough to touch, eat. It's kinda' sweet. I love it on a slice of buttered french or italian bread.

Now, take a jar with a lid. Place the leftover garlic that you haven't eaten and place in jar. Pour in canola oil (olive oil will become murky and harden in the fridge) to cover the cloves. Add a squeeze of lemon or lime juice or just a tbs of vinegar to the jar. Throw in some dried herbs, rosemary, thyme, basil or whatever you like (I like tarragon). Place lid on jar, place jar in fridge. Will keep up to 2 weeks. Have one with your evening meal every night for your health.

Good luck and good eating.

Answer 6

Garlic isextremely versatile. its in almost every meal. Use it chopped in marinades, dressings. Ur use it to flavor some oil before sauteeing. Its even great grilled and then smashed for more of a unique flavor.

Answer 7

I usually only use 1 or 2 cloves at a time (2 small) so as not to overpower any other flavor, and so as not to smell funny the next day. I usually mince it and sautee it or fry it with meat - hamburger or chicken. Trying to get brave enough to use it with salad dressings! Oh, and in salsa one half clove to one clove is plenty, unless you are making a big batch.
