#4theLoveofGarlic: A Garlicky Event and Giveaway #Sponsor


The Italians have a saying: chi usa l'aglio non fa mai sbaglio. The gist of it is this: using garlic is never wrong. Agreed. While I am not Italian, I learned to cook in Italy, so my cooking sensibilities hail from there.
The Garject 

So, when Dreamfarm offered their new Garject to a group of bloggers to review*, I was in. Immediately. And for six days, leading up to National Garlic Day which is Wednesday, April 19th, we'll be sharing garlic creations, reviewing the Garject, and hosting a giveaway. Six of our lucky readers will win their very own Garject.

  1. I like garlic in almost everything, hah! My favorite thing to do is is to roast it, and eat it as a spread on toasted baguettes along with tapenade and whatever else I have handy.

I've Pickled Blueberries , Pickled Asparagus , Pickled Cranberries , Pickled Pumpkin , and even Pickled Chard Stems ! This I did last night for an upcoming recipe challenge that requires I include radishes. Ummmm...of course I'm pickling them!
