We explore the fascinating world of garlic preservation techniques in our upcoming course scheduled for the 26th of April. Prepare to tantalize your taste buds and discover the incredible diversity of flavors that can be achieved with this humble yet extraordinary ingredient.
First on our aromatic agenda is the exquisite Garlic Cheong, a delicacy that involves the preservation of garlic in golden honey. This sweet and savory fusion not only enhances the natural pungency of garlic but also creates a unique harmony of flavors that will undoubtedly leave a lasting impression on your palate. Explore the nuances of this ancient preservation method that not only adds depth to the garlic but also offers potential health benefits associated with the consumption of honey.
Next up, we delve into the mysterious realm of Black Garlic. Uncover the secrets behind this culinary alchemy, where garlic undergoes a transformative journey of slow and controlled heat, resulting in a deep, dark, and remarkably complex flavor profile. Learn the art of patience as we unravel the science behind the conservation process, unlocking the hidden depths of umami and richness in every clove.
Venturing further into the realm of preservation, we explore the bold flavors of Dried and Smoked Garlic. Witness the magical metamorphosis as garlic cloves are carefully dehydrated and infused with the mesmerizing essence of smoke. This preservation technique not only intensifies the garlic's taste but also imparts a smoky aroma that adds a distinctive character to a wide range of dishes.
Last but certainly not least, prepare to be intrigued by the vibrant and visually stunning Blue Garlic. Immerse yourself in the world of fermentation as garlic cloves are submerged in a brine of salt, resulting in a striking blue hue. Uncover the art and science behind this ancient preservation method, exploring the tangy and savory notes that develop during the fermentation process.
Join us on the 13th of march for a culinary experience that promises to be a feast for the senses. This course is not just a celebration of garlic but a deep dive into the diverse techniques that transform it into a culinary masterpiece. Your taste buds will thank you, and vampires might just reconsider their stance after experiencing the rich and varied world of preserved garlic delights.
What can you expect: tasting the versatility of Garlic while going home with a head of black garlic, smoked garlic and a pot of fermented garlic and cheong garlic!
