One of my favorite spring sights at the farmers market is the appearance of bulbs of fresh garlic. It is wonderful to cook with as it is still quite sweet with just a hint of the aroma and strength of the dried stuff. Also, unlike the dried, the fresh comes straight from the earth somewhere nearby rather than in a container from China. I use it in every way I can think of, but especially in home fries, sautéed with bitter greens (tonight it was kale), and cooked in butter until soft and sweet to add to scrambled eggs or to use as a dip for crusty bread.

Beautiful! I’ve never seen fresh garlic before, it’s funny…
Its very tasty too – if you have a farmers market handy you should be able to find it there BUT only at this time of the year.
I had never seen / tasted fresh garlic until Cooking School in May in Italy. It is a wonder to behold! Of course, none of the grocery stores in the US has it…another item to add to the “must grow in the garden” list. So yummy! Great photo.
