Pickled garlic is a delightful culinary preparation made by preserving fresh garlic cloves in a mixture of vinegar and salt, often with added spices for enhanced flavor. This preservation process mellows the sharpness of fresh garlic, resulting in a product that has a tangy, slightly sweet flavor with a softer, yet still crunchy texture. Its long shelf-life and distinctive taste make it a must-have in many kitchens around the world. Store in a cool, dry place and refrigerate after opening.
