At first, I thought you meant to type "too much garlic," lol, but then I remembered there's no such thing.

I thought the same until I made my own Hummus

I have now amended the saying to: "There is no such thing as too much cooked garlic."

Yeah. When you use raw garlic it can turn a bit fiery. Though even then I enjoy it, it’s more the aftermath that’s the problem.

I mean I can nibble on cloves but eating a super garlicy paste is actually stronger

Stomach acid would like to have a word 😂

As long as the word is 'moregarlic' we are going to get on just fine

If you need more garlic, put some in at the start of cooking, then at the end of cooking. Everyone saying they need a bulb, not a clove, doesn't know how to cook.

A lot of recipes call to cook garlic first and infuse oils before the rest of the cooking, but if the garlic cooks too much you lose the flavour.

I think you’re right on adding it at the end

Instead of a clove you should have a BULB! Not flavorless but the bane of vampires and food critics. All shall love it and despair.

That's what I always do. But with cheese.

Thanks for being here for all of us.

My version of this is "1 ts of spices? I am sure they meant 4 tbs"

I finally found out how to prepare it so I can eat it by itself. Roast young garlic until it's soft, then mash it, then fry it at a high temp. Crispy fried garlic, my beloved

Works for hobbits too

verity_kindle@sh.itjust.works · 4 pts · 1y

I would use slow cooking over roasting, in that case. Hobbits can be stringy, depending on age.

Thank you for looking out for me. Title edited in your honor

At some point you can just eat slightly roasted garlic with a hint of flour.
