The recipe for black garlic was developed in Japan in the 2000s from fresh garlic heads. The garlic cloves are left to mature for 15 to 20 days in a closed, warm (60 to 80°C) and humid (70 to 90% humidity) place.
The garlic will slowly transform itself… The sugars naturally contained in the garlic will caramelize, according to a chemical reaction that can be observed during the cooking of a food. Visually, the garlic clove changes color and becomes black. This enzymatic degradation will also modify the taste of the garlic clove. It loses its sulfur compounds. In the mouth, black garlic is melting… Its flavors are more sweet and sour… Amazing and delicious!
Black garlic is an excellent source of minerals and trace elements: calcium, phosphorus, iron, selenium… and it is particularly indicated to stimulate the immune system and prevent cellular aging.
