Kitchen Bytes: Garlic, a love story

A garlic hater? Gasp, tell me how you can't love such a perfect combination - misunderstood yet Versatile.
Pfft... and how dare you dump the poor bulb into "dating 101" rulebook.
Heartless vampires you lot are.
As you can tell, I lurve garlic.
Raw and chopped up, tossed in salad for a peppery tinged bite.
Garlic flakes, sliced thinly and deep fried. Sprinkled atop teppanyaki for the extra nutty crunch.
Sauted with vegetables like asparagus, choy sam and kailan.
Roasted whole with a drizzle of olive oil and salt and then squeezed into pasta or sauces for a sweet touch.
Made into Aioli or reduce with herbs and butter to make a yummy garlic spread.
And let's not forget it's medicinal properties - lowering cholesterol among them (and we foodies know we NEED this)...
Enough of the odes, send in those recipes peeps!!!
p/s: i have been brushing up on my meager photoshop skills esp since i've yet figured out how to masterfully capture food photography. This pic is one of those attempts... :)
