Ingredients:

• Fresh garlic bulbs
• Olive oil (optional, for preservation)
• Herbs like rosemary or thyme (optional, for added flavor)

Instructions:

1. Peel and Prepare the Garlic: Begin by peeling the cloves from several garlic bulbs. The amount of garlic you use depends on how much you wish to make. Ensure each clove is clean and free from blemishes.
2. Storing in a Jar: Place the peeled cloves in a clean, dry jar. If you’re using olive oil, pour it over the garlic until the cloves are completely submerged. This not only preserves the garlic but also infuses it with additional flavor, especially if you add herbs like rosemary or thyme.
3. Seal and Store: Secure the lid tightly and store the jar in a cool, dark place like a pantry or a cellar. If you’ve used oil, ensure the jar is refrigerated to maintain freshness and prevent any potential spoilage.

Using Your Garlic

This garlic can be used in various dishes, from sauces and marinades to soups and stews. The flavor intensifies over time, adding a rich depth to meals. Additionally, consuming a clove daily, perhaps mixed into a morning toast spread or incorporated into dinner, can be a wonderful boost to your diet.

Benefits Over Time
