We’ve been using the Dorot Gardens crushed garlic. It is crushed and pressed into a tray with little cubic depressions to hold the garlic and then frozen. It’s like tiny garlic ice cubes. We get them at Trader Joe’s. Each cube packs a wallop of garlic flavor and is indistinguishable from crushed fresh. The melt easily in some hot pasta or when sautéing vegetables. My husband still wants to use fresh garlic but it takes enough extra time that we don’t. These garlic cubes are ways ready to use and it makes a big difference.
- Groxx 4y agoI've largely converted to frozen too I think. Getting rid of that always-slightly-present jarred-flavor-weirdness is nice, the cost is more than close enough to not care, and it lasts practically forever because it's frozen. Fresh garlic is such a pain to deal with, the minor flavor improvement is just nowhere near worth the increase in effort, or ingredient loss due to it growing old before use.
