Take your culinary creations to the next level with fresh, flavorful Garlic. Garlic’s signature flavors become caramelized and sweeter when cooked, making it a perfect accompaniment to many dishes such as pasta, shrimp, chicken, stews, and more. Garlic also goes great in creamed soups, on all types of roasts, in a variety of egg dishes, or used simply with sauteed or roasted vegetables. To prepare garlic for cooking, you’ll need to break it up into individual cloves and peel the skin. Once you’ve done this, you can mince the garlic by chopping it into fine pieces. Spice up your next meal with a tasty clove of fresh Garlic.
