We Prepare Fresh Garlic: A How To Vid Guide

->

Preparing fresh ingredients isn’t for everyone. It does add some additional time to your recipes, especially when it’s something like garlic that can take a while to properly open up and cut.

Well, we wanted to show you how home cooks of all skill levels (ours is very low) can prepare fresh garlic from a garlic glove, perfect for all types of foods and maybe even your own garlic bread! Stop using “JARLIC” today and use some nice, fresh garlic instead.

I’m not going to waste your time here. It’s difficult to explain precisely how you “shock” and then open up garlic, which parts to cut off, and how you can dice it up nicely. Instead of trying to list steps, you can watch our dedicated video below, showcasing how you prep fresh garlic in mere minutes.

It really is as simple as that. I love using garlic in my “potjiekos” and most types of curries and egg fried rice. There’s really a lot you can do with it.

You can store chopped garlic in an airtight container in a fridge for a few days. I do, however strongly recommend using it up quickly. The fresher, the better!
