Have you ever tried dehydrating? wonder if you can get a "roasted" sort of taste, maybe put some olive oil and sea salt on it and let it warm up.. off to try it! deb Hi <strong><em>Deb</em></strong> - I have tried dehydrating it to try and achieve the "roasted" effect. It would take a lot more heat or outrageously long dehydrating time to get anywhere close to the taste and texture of roasted garlic. It did soften a tiny bit. How did your experimentation turn out? hey ingrid

Hi Deb – I have tried dehydrating it to try and achieve the “roasted” effect. It would take a lot more heat or outrageously long dehydrating time to get anywhere close to the taste and texture of roasted garlic. It did soften a tiny bit. How did your experimentation turn out?

I used to go to the classes of Joan who did napeledel (sunfood) potlucks and teachings as well and she was my yoga teacher too, she's awesome. I met the woman who does nyersetel.hu but I don't know the other lady who does livingfoods.hu, so indeed raw food is becoming more and more popular, it's really great. Did you go to any classes while living in Budapest? Szia <strong><em>Springfairy</em></strong> - I didn't have the opportunity to take classes while living in Budapest however I did do a lot of reading, online research, visited the wonderful open market for fresh produce, and found a valuable source for goji berries, organic teas, etc., at my favorite health food store located in Mamut.

Since May I live in Brussels working for the EC. Looking forward to your garlic recipes very much! By the way, the raw movement is picking up in Hungary. www.livingfoods.hu and www.nyersetel.hu Szia <strong><em>Springfairy</em></strong>! That is wonderful news and thanks for sharing these links! I'm familiar with Nyersetel but not Living Foods HU. In fact, I began my raw journey while living in Budapest and I felt raw would grow in Hungary.

Any idea how to make that raw? By the way, I'm also Hungarian. :) Hi and welcome <strong><em>Springfairy</em></strong>! I have a couple garlic recipes I'm working out that I plan to share here. I'll keep you posted. You're Hungarian too?! Where you born in Hungary? I lived in Budapest and loved it. :-) Hi,

Now I understand why all the containers of pre-peeled garlic that I bought and stored in the fridge went bad! What a waste of money. I'll be buying whole garlic heads from now on. Hi <strong><em>Judy</em></strong> - I have a dear friend who had the same problem with bulk purchased, pre-peeled garlic and she stored it in the fridge too. Now she knows why all that garlic didn't keep well and went bad so quickly. Though it not ideal, in my opinion, you can still buy pre-peeled garlic in a pinch. Thank you!

Bad breath or not, you can never have too much garlic, I say. :D Thanks for those measurement equivalents. That's so helpful! --- <strong><em>Earthmother</em></strong> you are Hungarian! My husband is Hungarian. :-) Garlic is just so good and good for you. I agree with you on never having too much garlic. Being Hungarian, I think I was weaned on garlic.

I rub it all over my hands and under my nails under running water. Works like a charm. Oh, and by the way, you spell that which the lemon cleanses in your mouth, "palate." "Palette" is what an artist puts paint on. --- Hi <strong><em>Betsy</em></strong> and welcome! Thank goodness for stainless steel.
