Black Garlic

We have been making black garlic, fermenting entire buds slowly over two weeks and then drying them for another week.






With a texture like soft, creamy dates, the black garlic adds a dark, fruity richness to roast beef gravy and goes amazingly well with most cheeses.

    Pretty much the same as you would any other vegetable. No big surprises :)
