Glorious Garlic Ideas

What to do with Black Garlic.
  • Black Garlic: simply spread on a cracker, add meat or cheese and enjoy. Black garlic and rare roast beef? Fabulous. Black garlic and goat’s cheese? Sublime. Want more? Gently heat through sliced garlic as you fold over an omelette. Treat black garlic gently, not frying it off but adding it late to protect the rich flavours.
  • Antipasto cloves: serve as you would an olive – the umami taste makes it a ready drink accompaniment. Top cucumber rounds with smoked salmon cream cheese and a black garlic slice.
  • Black Garlic Powder: available as plain black garlic powder (dehydrated and powdered after caramelisation) or black flavoured with rosemary or lemon myrtle. Use as part of a rub on meat or fish – mix with preserved lemon or finger lime pearls and black pepper to flavour a roast. 
  • Powdered Smoked Garlic: white garlic smoked over fruit wood then dried and powdered - sprinkle over a cheese souffle just as served to maximise the smokey flavour.
  • Think sweet! Dark chocolate and black garlic truffles? Black garlic icecream?

At its worst, black garlic is CPR to a flavourless dish – rescue tonight’s dinner. More foodie suggestions on our blog. Read the benefits of eating black garlic.
