Seasoned cooks are familiar with this method of preserving garlic. Here’s how to do it: Start by taking half a kilo of garlic cloves and soak them in warm water for about an hour. Once dried, you will notice that the skin flakes easily from this soaking.
Next, place all the garlic cloves in a sterilized glass jar. Add two tablespoons of coarse salt (around 30 grams). To preserve the garlic, you can choose to add a few tablespoons of apple cider vinegar or wine vinegar, depending on your preference.
Finally, boil some water and let it cool. Before sealing the jar, add a slice of lemon on top of the garlic. Shake the jar to mix all the ingredients well.
Using this method, your garlic cloves will stay in perfect condition for over a year, without rotting. You can use them whenever you want, without having to peel them each time you use them. This tip, widely adopted by many cooks, turns out to be practical and, above all, effective.
