All
of the world's great cuisines, from Chinese, to Italian, to French, make
abundant use of this pungent flavoring. The world's finest garlic is
American, grown and harvested in Central California.
Used as a flavoring
component in many dishes, garlic compliments meats, stews, vegetables,
salads, tomato dishes, sauces, pickles and sausages to name a few. Garlic
has the great characteristic in the right hands as the longer you cook it,
the milder and sweeter it becomes. So if you like the sharper more
pungent flavor less cooking, sweeter and mild cook it long and slow.
Garlic in fresh, pureed, chopped, peeled, and
dehydrated are a staple in the kitchen of the professional chef and the
chef constantly evaluates this product for its quality and flavor.
