Tips

Cooking garlic

Garlic has a starch.This starch is saccharified by slow heating, making it tastier.This is the same mechanism that makes potatoes sweeter by heating them at a lower temperature for a longer period of time.There is a green germ in the centre of garlic clove if the garlic is not fresh.This is more easily burnt than other parts of the garlic.It is therefore important to remove this for a homogeneous finish.Based on the above, here is a tasty heating method for using garlic for flavouring.
