3.95oz Jar
It is made by heating whole bulbs of garlic over the course of several weeks, with the humidity and temperature at exact specifications, a process that results in black cloves.
The taste is sweet and syrupy with hints of balsamic vinegar or even tamarind.
It has a tender, almost jelly-like texture with a consistency similar to a soft dried fruit.
Think jujube, but without the stickiness.
It is not a substitute for regular garlic but has its own distinct flavour.
The black garlic has nearly twice as many antioxidants as raw garlic.
It also contains the natural compound, S-Allycysteine.
Black Garlic can be stored for up to 3 weeks at room temperature.
It can also be stored in the refrigerator for up to 6 months and wrapped in air tight containers to store in the freezer for 1 year
