Magical Black Garlic

It was not until recently that I discovered the power of this ingredient - this is no ordinary garlic.

Black garlic is unlike anything you’ve ever tried before and hopefuly you are lucky enough to try it.
This is simple food with a wonderful flavor. Black garlic is sweet yet savory. It has a tender, almost jelly-like texture.

Hard to believe, but true. It’s as delicious as it is unique.
However Black Garlic is not Raw Garlic - Imagine garlic without all of the annoying stuff. Bad breath? Odor?

We’re talking about two distinct flavors. So you can keep eating garlic , just make sure you start eating black garlic.
It is almost like wine , it gets better with age.

In addition Garlic black a whole lot of benefits for your Health
In Taoism mythology, black garlic was rumored to grant immortality. there’s no doubt that black garlic is great for your health as it has twice as many antioxidants as raw garlic.

Black garlic is all-natural. It’s aged for a month in a special fermentation process under high heat, where it develops its darker color, softer texture, and sweeter taste.

I recommend this wonderful soup:
