Garlic Cookbook
Cooking with garlic can be a fun for any type of cook. Whether you like plain simple cooking (like Jane); enjoy welcoming new culinary experiences (like Edna); or want to cook fresh, wholesome and tasty food (like Susan) garlic can work for you!
Edna and Susan have been working very hard to add new pages to our garlic cookbook. So whether you want to buy gourmet garlic for cooking, need garlic cooking tips, want to check out recipes for different varieties,
Just like wines, we have found that certain garlic varieties add a flourish or finishing touch to different dishes. Below are our garlic recommendations for ethnic cooking with a short flavor description:
