Garlic!

So one of my FaVoRIte things to add to food is GaRliC! I just LOVE it! An interesting thing I recently learned is that garlic can produce different flavors depending on the way it is prepared. When garlic comes into contact with air, you get a more bitter/sharp taste. If you are trying to avoid the bitter taste try not to incorporate  air, food processors do this. It is suggested the best tool to use is a mortar and pestle because it keeps it from getting air and the heat a processor would do. And as we are on the topic of garlic...keep all oil and garlic mixtures in the refrigerator because they can easily grow harmful bacteria. Also when mincing garlic add a little salt to keep it from sticking to your board and knife.
