Do you eat garlic often? Do you include it in your meals?

 

I love garlic and when I think about my first memory about garlic, I recall my childhood. I actually tried to rub garlic over the crust of bread and it left such spicy and delicious taste. Me and my siblings we all had a lot of fun when we compete each other who could resist that spicy taste and not to drink water. Since then I always I add garlic in my cooking, no matter if it is soups, some wok dishes, vegetables or potatoes I always had garlic in my cooking.

 

What benefits do you know about garlic?

 

Garlic has many health benefits. Often when we have any viral infection we need to trigger it using garlic, better not to cook it completely. It has also an effect of antioxidant but also vitamin C.

 

Is it easy to find garlic in supermarkets in your country? What is its price on Steem?

 

Garlic is easy to find in local supermarket, but also in many specialised shop like Asian shops and also in Polish shops. Recently my colleague told me that he planted garlic at home in plant pot and I was completely surprised, that it is growing in such environment. I thought that it needs a lot of sun but obviously if they can grow in home circumstances then it is one of the plant that has no problem with little space and less light. The price of one bulb is approximately 10 Steem, I usually buy in supermarket.

 

Do you have any special way of storing garlic to preserve its properties?

 

Garlic like dry and dark space, that is why I usually leave them on plate and in cupboard. In the past I put them in fridge but they become just soft, so I then started to leave them in normal temperature but dry space and they stayed for a long time fresh and delicous.

 

What is a famous dish in your country that includes garlic as a main ingredient?

 

There is a simple delicious meat with vegetable stew, I actually add all possible vegetable and they all come in their own time. Important is do not add garlic too late because then you do not have any taste of garlic.
