Black Garlic
Elevate your pantry with our Black Garlic—a culinary transformation of premium raw garlic into dark, syrupy gems. Through a patient, month-long process of slow-ageing under controlled heat and humidity, the garlic sheds its pungent bite and emerges with a soft, jelly-like texture and a striking ebony colour. The flavour is a complex revelation: a mellow, balsamic-like sweetness balanced by savoury notes of porcini mushroom and a subtle hint of liquorice. It is pure, concentrated umami.
This versatile kitchen staple is designed to be your new secret ingredient. You can thinly slice the cloves over seared scallops or fresh salads—much like a black truffle—to add a sophisticated finish to your plate. For a deeper infusion of flavour, try grating it over creamy pasta and risotto, or simply mash the cloves into softened butter and vinaigrettes. It is equally delicious smeared onto crusty bruschetta or used as a rub for roasted chicken to unlock an incredible depth of savoury goodness.
