Re: growing your own veggies
oooo so does that mean i can still plant some then TM? i plant in tubs anyway so they wouldnt be in the way :D will all that garlic keep too? or will it go off before you eat it all?

Re: growing your own veggies
Garlic used before it is dried is described as 'wet garlic' - milder flavour - plenty of recipes on the web.
When shop bought it has been hung to dry out (as TM has done) I would be tempted to use some 'wet' because it is not easily available in that form. Dried garlic will keep for months on end. |
Re: growing your own veggies

I bought 2 giant bulbs of Solent Wight garlic for around £2 from a garden centre and that's what I've grown. It over-winters well and then has grown on in the Spring and Summer. As Margaret says, garlic when hung to dry can be kept for months, but I eat quite a lot of it anyway, so it probably won't last until the new year. Margaret - I'll be giving a couple of wet garlic recipes a go. As you say, it tends to be milder than dried, so it'll be interesting to see how they turn out. |
Re: growing your own veggies
