Fri, June 24, 2005 - 1:39 PMwhen we boil crawfish down here, we boil the garlic in the heavily seasoned water, and eat the garlic just like that, or make garlic mashed taters with them -

Wed, June 29, 2005 - 9:05 AMMy favorite is to chop, oh, about 2/3rd of a head of garlic, and about a fourth of an onion, and sautee them with some olive oil, and then at the last minute add some finely slivered red chard (about a half a pound) and let the garlic olive oil and onions coat and warm the chard.
Then I toast some bread and smear it with brie (or any other soft cheese, I just happen to be partial to brie) and then top it off with a couple of spoonfuls of the chard mixture. It just melts the cheese, and soaks into the bread-and it's super super super yummy!

1 t. pepper
1/4 t. cloves

Mon, October 17, 2005 - 8:24 PMA good pesto is hard to beat. Fresh basil from the garden, pine nuts, parmesean, olive oil, and don't be shy with the garlic. It's like foreplay on a plate. -

Re: favorite garlic dish
Mon, October 17, 2005 - 8:49 PMGot a big tub o' homemade pesto in the fridge right now ... mmm.
BTW there are all sort of crazy variants to pesto, some of which aren't bad. Two you will see in Italy are using walnuts or almonds instead of pine nuts and using other fresh herbs such as parsley for all or part of the basil.

Tue, October 18, 2005 - 4:07 PMFor a quick cure for the Munchies, I heat some Virgin Olive Oil, and chopped Garlic in a fry pan and then when the mix is right I add either Locatelli Romano or Asaigo cheese. Then dip my favorite Sourdough roll and sit back and enjoy.
BTW when making Hamburgers I use Chopped Garlic and Locatelli when forming the patty. The rest of the ingredients is my secret...
