Black garlic
Black, melting pods with sweet liquorice and balsamic notes.
Black garlic is garlic transformed by long maturation at gentle heat, which blackens the cloves and gives them a melting, almost confit texture. It loses its sharpness in favour of a deep, sweet flavour with notes of liquorice, prune and balsamic vinegar. It can be crushed into a purée or thinly sliced.
