April is National Garlic Month

LYU370 · 03-27-2021, 06:29 PM

So an experiment is in progress... If it turns out, it should be a tasty ingredient in some future cooks. Anyone want to take a guess as to what it'll be?

Everything I've read has said that under no circumstances should you do this inside your house, so off to the garage it goes. Most instructions say to set it at 60C(140F), but I did find several that said 70-80C works better. I'm going 74C (165F), which is as high as the dehydrator will go.

We shall see. Stay tuned, this'll take a while...

I'm intrigued. The double wrap makes me think you're not making homemade minced garlic, or are you?

Black garlic? Can I have some?

Let's see how it turned out...

I'd say that's pretty black...

Now what to do with them???

Andy,

I am intrigued.

Besides turning black, and I assume being a form of roasted. What are the advantages of this process?

Thanks
