Ocado Garlic

Ocado Garlic.

A fundamental ingredient in cuisines around the world, garlic is a pungent and flavourful addition to any kitchen. This versatile bulb consists of several individual cloves, all wrapped in a papery, white/purplish skin. When raw, its flavour is sharp and spicy, but once cooked, it mellows into a rich, sweet, and nutty taste.

Raw garlic is perfect for adding a powerful, aromatic kick to your food. When finely chopped or crushed, it is an essential ingredient for dressings, sauces, and marinades. A small amount can add a fresh and fiery flavour to dishes, so it's best to use it sparingly.

When cooked, garlic becomes a key flavour base for a huge variety of meals. It can be sautéed as the first ingredient for curries, stir-fries, and stews, or roasted whole until it becomes soft and sweet. The soft, roasted cloves can then be squeezed onto toast for a delicious, savoury spread.
