Recipe - About Garlic - A Growers Advice

NONE

To remove garlic odor from your hands, rinse your hands with fresh lemon
juice or scrub with a bit of salt, then rinse with cool water.

To freshen your breath after eating garlic, chew on a sprig of fresh
parsley.

The longer you cook garlic, the milder it becomes. When sauteing garlic, be
careful not to burn it. Burned garlic will have a bitter taste, so discard
it and start again.

To store garlic, keep bulbs in a cool, dry place. Do not refrigerate.
Garlic needs air circulation so don't store in a plastic bag. A small
wicker basket can keep garlic conveniently and attractively on a kitchen
countertop, ready to use.

How to buy garlic? Look for garlic bulbs that have plump, firm cloves with
the papery outer sheath intact. Avoid garlic that is soft, spongy or
shriveled.
