Tips

Great ideas for purchasing, storing, and consuming garlic.
  • When it comes to purchasing garlic, you want to look for firm bulbs with dry, papery skin. Avoid garlic that is soft or has wet spots or sprouts.
  • Buy whole heads of garlic from the produce section of your grocery store, and store them in a cool, dark place. Don’t refrigerate—you’ll kill the flavor!
  • When you’re ready to cook with garlic, don’t bother peeling the cloves individually—just slice off the top half of each clove (where the papery skin is) so that you can remove the skin along with the top portion of each clove. This will save you tons of time!
  • There are many ways to use garlic in cooking. You can eat it raw as a seasoning, roast it, and use it in stir-fries and sauces.
  • You can use garlic to flavor mashed potatoes.
  • Add it to any sandwich for a kick of flavor.
