Oh, it's amazing. Get a head of garlic and rub off all the exterior papery stuff (but not the skin of the individual cloves. Some people also cut the pointy tips off. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast until soft. Get some nice bread, warm bread. Pull off a clove, hold it by the bottom and squeeze it like toothpaste onto a slice of bread. Enjoy the most wonderful garlic bread variant.
You can also make black garlic, and it becomes fairly sweet

No joke - my wife and I were eating so much of it for a while that you could smell it on our sweat.
Also, what they say is true: we got zero mosquito bites during that time.
The legends are true then, the blood-sucking vampires were skeeters all along!
I think I hate vampires less than mosquitos
Just grab a tiny fork and go to town.
