    Love garlic. Fresh is better than bottled - but I use both. It adds
    "something" to most meat dishes. Thats just my humble opinion, of
    course 😉

    I don't like roasted garlic so much. Takes the punch out of it (?).

    Imho,

    Lol.. I tried raw clone the other day, I went all teary! It was punchy
    though!

    I was taught to boil spinach with garlic to takes off the weird texture
    that spinach leaves on the tongue. It works.

    Talking about roast - sage and onion stuffing! Yum. 🙂

    I've had garlic ice cream. I liked it, but I'm one of those people who
    doesn''t believe in too much garlic.

  8. Heheh, I used to fear garlic as a kid, mostly because my dad is such a
    garlic nut. He would put a half bulb of it in a stew, and pity the
    person that mistook a clove for a piece of potato or onion ;-) Now I
    just love fresh garlic. I like the smell of it on my fingers, but not
    garlic breath :-D

    Best,
    Christine

    My mother was a garlic fan. When I was a kid we would make "garlic
    sandwiches" by taking freshly baked bread and putting a smear of butter
    and some garlic slivers on it.

    I like the taste of garlic and tend to use a lot of it.

  14. I think that certain parts of Italy use even less garlic than other
    parts, but the main thing I heard from various cooking shows is that
    Italians just don't often like to eat the garlic itself... it's used
    more to flavor the oil or whatever dish is being cooked, but since it's
    put in in larger hunks it can be removed before serving or eating.

    Personally, I love roasted garlic and could practically eat it with a
    spoon... it's not spicy or strong that way (don't know about breath
    with it though... can't smell my own afterward).
    I also put garlic in a variety of things, including spinach (sauted
    with onion and olive oil, with an egg added at end) and just loads of
    other things, especially ethnic ones. I also keep garlic on the
    counter so I can quickly have 1-2 pieces of crostini, which makes a
    great snack (cut surface of raw garlic swiped over a toasted slice of
    baguette, etc. which was first lightly coated with olive oil ...after
    the garlic, I also add a bit of salt --and a shred of parmesan if I
    feel like going to the trouble).

    Italians certainly use garlic, although definitely not as much
    as some other cultures or some Americans. You want to
    see a place where garlic is in just about everything, visit
    Korea, or certain regions of China. Wow...talk about
    an Overpowering Garlic Experience....
