If you eat too much garlic it will come out of your pores. I had an ex that ate a lot of garlic and there were times she sweated it out. I didn't mind, because I like garlic, but you have to be careful.

Pickled garlic is addictive. Also green olives stuffed with garlic gloves.

Want to smell something awesome?

1. Cook bacon. Once semi crisp, remove from pan.
2. Add diced onion to remaining bacon grease.
3. Once onion is translucent, add minced garlic.

Wanna be fancy? Use shallots instead.

Understanding the various states of garlic is integral in cooking.

If you use garlic salt, you are garlic sub-tier 2.
If you use jarred garlic, you are garlic sub-tier 1.

Understanding how to prepare garlic in your food elevates you past these sub-tiers.

Peeling and slicing garlic thinly, while ok for some heavy-handed sauces, particularly tomato based is garlic pro-tier 1

Slicing length-wise, but not entirely through the bulb, then rotating it to finalize a finer dice is garlic pro-tier 2.

Smashing to peel the clove, while retaining a majority of the clove's integrity, then finely slicing it is pro-tier 2.5.

Doing the same, but still being able to maintain enough structural integrity to rotate and still dice is pro-tier 3.0.

Doing this is god tier.

Mince garlic into olive oil and pour it over pizza. Don't use too much oil. This concoction will get more garlicky if you leave it overnight in the fridge.

If you can't smell, that you smell of garlic, then you need more garlic. Same if garlic isn't the first thing you taste when you wake up.

Everytime you roast something in the oven, throw in an entire bulb of garlic.

Mix raw garlic with yoghurt for the only dressing your pickled garlic will ever need.

Garlic butter is always better than plain butter. You can freeze small cubes or garlic butter in an ice cube tray.

Fry up some sliced garlic and wilt some greens in the pan with it.

You can buy dehydrated/dried garlic and bring it with you EVERYWHERE. Rehydrate in your cheeks like a garlicky hamster.

Wild garlic is delicious.

Garlic.

garlic + olive oil + anchovy paste is a good base for p much any kind of sauce you want. heat the paste until it blends with the oil and then toast the garlic lightly. dont burn your garlic!! it turns bitter.
