Great Xannie, that garlic chicken sounds good!
Big, good idea.
Joe
Thanks Foodb! Neat site! Lot’s of good sounding recipes.
Ok, no more garlic in the fridge for me. Keep in a paper bag they say is good, or somewhere dark. It is the sprouts that may be kinda bitter.
Joe
well, you are all correct.
the chicken turned out great.
I find the shoots from the sprouting garlic works well in keeping vampires out. Use a red thumb tack and pin the sprouts on the front and back door about eye level. I have yet to have even one vampire from entering my home.[}:)][}:)]

from you all.

i always thought if garlic was sprouting,
you couldn’t use it because it would be bitter.
I’ve never had a problem using cloves that have the green stuff in them. When I crush the cloves I just pull out the green shoot and it’s fine.

It’s late enough in the year.. Plant it outside. Harvest next fall..
Sprouting makes garlic harder to chop/press, in my experience, otherwise it doesn’t seem to affect the quality. …Mind you, I’m not the best of cooks, perhaps there’s just too much else wrong with what I cook for anything as minor as bitter garlic to do much harm.
Garlic sprouts are tasty sprinkled anywhere you’d use green onions. I used them all the time when I had a garden.
Thank you Donna. If I ever have sprouted garlic again I will give it a try. Doatsie
