Never tried it until I met Kate, and because of her Polish/Continental heritage a whole new world opened up to me that I've been enjoying for the past 32yrs.
Kate buys it every time she does our main food shop   |

"Wonderful stuff, nothing nicer than a roasted smoked head of garlic spread on toast"
That is yummy. The Food Programme on R4 is discussing garlic, it's ancient history and how it's produced now. |

lol, my Dad never trusted anyone but my Mom as far as food went, so never tasted Kate's culinary skills. My Mom loved it once she plucked up the courage to try "foreign food" after my Dad died. |

"Yum good for the blood and makes everything taste better  "
They are discussing the anti-bacterial and health benefits. I'm not sure that chewing a raw clove is quite for me but it's the best way to get the health benefits. |

Good for her. Food is such a pleasure that it's a shame to not try new things. |

"Halloumi! That was it. Garlic bread with halloumi x
Squeaky cheese with Turkish sausage and garlic bread... I feel a lunch is calling me."
Mmmm... Yum!! I'm hungry now.
Roast leg of lamb is fantastic if you cut little holes and pop a clove of garkic and a sprig of rosemary in each x |

"Use it every day. What would make it foreign muck?"
It was clip of a vox pop from 1971 and the fear expressed by most Brits at joining the EU that they wouldn't want their food here and have everything covered in garlic. |

Lidl sell a type of garlic called one clove . It's walnut sized and round. Just peel the outer and you have one large Clove of garlic.
If you want to reduce the bitterness of any garlic then cut it in half and remove the centre stalk section. Blanche in boiling water and then plunge into cold water. Do this about 3 times and then use as normal. The garlic will still have the flavour but will be sweeter. |

Yes, it's ancient but was not really used in food in this country. |

Here's a tip for you all ... Go to the deli at Sainsbury's and ask for a ring of Whyeska, (it's spelt different but it's pronounced that way)
It's a Polish lean pork garlic sausage and it's absolutely gorgeous and very very moreish. It comes in rings or half rings like black pudding. You can eat it as it comes or you can boil it and eat it with fresh buttered bread and boiled eggs, or add it to cheddar cheese sarnies.
It's around £5 for a small ring but once you've tried it you'll be hooked. |

or pike, lol, Kate's got an old Polish cookbook that's translated into English and there's loads of stuff in it that we see as being traditional English food like cheese, onion and potato pie, with the garlic added or with various types of sausage added to it.
I'm not keen on river or lake fish as it's too "muddy" tasting for me, but may be that's why you are supposed to lace it with garlic during cooking? |

Love it and use it in a lot of our meals. And I have also found myself using more and more different herbs and spices to flavour foods in place of salt for both health and variety reasons. |

I used to hate it, just the smell of it would have me heaving. When my daughter was young my family would give her some then say make sure you give your mum a big kiss. I started to get used to it and started cooking with it but had to draw the line when my hubby smothered it on our eggs and bacon he was cooking yukkk. |

Fabulous ingredient, and wild garlic has been in the UK long before the imported one. I love using it although would stay well clear for at least a day before meeting people in the scene. Also I would not load my food with garlic when I have to face people at work the next day... it is vile to smell garlic breath when you have not had any yourself. |

Evil stuff. My mum found out it had medicinal properties (something to do with the immune system), it is not funny having garlic flavoured cornflakes  |

"Last time I did a booze cruise I bought a string of smoked garlic from the wine warehouse,
Stank the kitchen out for months
Loved eating it"
Used to regularly get smoked garlic from or framers market before it moved to a more trendy town. Might have a try at smoking my own at some point as I grow plenty. |
