GARLIC

Garlic is a species in the onion family. The use of garlic has been documented for thousands of years – including the ancient Egyptians, who used it both as a food seasoning and a traditional medicine. Today, it is grown around the world and used extensively for its pungent flavor.
Garlic is arranged in a head, called a “bulb”, which averages about 2 inches in height and diameter and consists of numerous small separate cloves. This bulb is what we typically see on supermarket shelves.
Garlic cloves may be consumed raw or cooked, and they may also be used for medicinal purposes. They have a strong, spicy flavour and aroma that mellows and sweetens considerably with cooking.
Today, garlic production in China provides 80% of the world’s supply of garlic.
