The fresher the garlic you cook with the better. Using the original fresh cloves of garlic will hugely improve the quality and potency of the taste compared to a dried powder. You should add it late to the dish (finely chopped or grated) while cooking though as the taste will cook away. If you want to experiment with the flavour I would recommend roasting a whole garlic for 20 mins or so. Lovely with lamb, you only need to eat a little at a time.

Why do you have to squish garlic before cutting it?

You do not need to squish (crush) garlic before cutting it. Depending on the use of garlic in different recipes, the cloves may be crushed, minced, chopped, sliced, slivered or used whole. Chefs often crush garlic cloves because the dry skin of each clove slips off easily after the clove is struck with the flat side of a knife. Partially crushed or flattened cloves are also easier to cut into a fine mince than whole cloves.


What are the ingredients of the Tastefully Simple Garlic Garlic Seasoning?

I have a bottle of Tastefully Simple Garlic Garlic Seasoning. My bottle lists the ingredients as garlic, onion, chives, parsley and spices. I really wanted to use some of the seasoning to make garlic bread, but I am not sure how much to use per one stick of butter. If anyone has made garlic bread with this seasoning, please let me know how much you used. I want it to taste like garlic bread, but not be too overwhelming with a garlic flavor. Thanks!

Is garlic annual or a perennial?

Not sure what you are asking, but garlic is planted, preferably in the fall, by breaking the bulb into separate cloves. Use only the 4-6 largest cloves, don't bother planting smaller ones. It will probably come up just before hard winter sets in - that's normal, mulch it through the winter. Come spring, remove the mulch, fertilize it once, and let nature do the rest. Keep it weeded. It is ready to harvest when the leaves start turning yellow rapidly and fall over, anywhere from early to mid July. Let the bulbs - leaves and all - dry in a sheltered place for 2-3 weeks. Trim the leaves and roots, and it's ready to use. Softneck garlic (typical "supermarket" garlic) will keep up to a year if well dried. Hardneck garlics ("gourmet" garlic) only keeps 2-3 months.
