The Garlic Company Peeled Garlic
What it is
This product consists of whole garlic cloves that have been pre-peeled. The papery outer skin has been removed, making the cloves ready for immediate use in cooking. The garlic is typically packed in a way that preserves its freshness and flavor. It offers a convenient alternative to peeling fresh garlic bulbs yourself. The cloves remain intact and firm.
How people cook with it
Peeled garlic is a versatile ingredient that can be incorporated into a wide range of savory dishes. Its convenience makes it ideal for quick meal preparation.
- Minced for sauces
- Sliced for stir-fries
- Crushed for marinades
- Whole in roasts
To use, simply take the desired number of peeled cloves from the container. You can mince them finely with a knife or garlic press for sauces, dressings, and dips. For stir-fries or sautés, slice them thinly. For marinades or rubs, crush them lightly to release their potent aroma and flavor. Whole cloves can be added to roasting pans with meats and vegetables, infusing the entire dish with their distinct taste as they soften and caramelize.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike whole garlic bulbs, these cloves bypass the often tedious peeling process. This saves preparation time and avoids the sticky residue that can come from handling fresh garlic skins. The cloves are already separated and ready to be chopped or crushed.
Who it is for
Home cooks and professional chefs looking for a time-saving ingredient will find this product useful.
How to keep the rest
After opening, store any remaining peeled garlic in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Ensure the cloves are submerged in a small amount of neutral oil or water to maintain moisture and prevent them from drying out. Consume within a few days for best quality.
