The very first time I made Lasagna, for dinner with friends, the recipe called for "two cloves of garlic". Unfortunately, I did not know the difference between cloves and buds ... after an hour of peeling garlic, I swore I'd never make the dish again. All the attendees were persona non grata for several days. I wish I'd had this picture then - would have saved me from 50 years of mocking ... 🍺🥌 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare fudge Posted July 17 #21306 Share Posted July 17 The same happened to us, my neighbour asked for a recipe for chili con carne, it called for 1 garlic clove, she put the whole bulb in about 15 cloves! We were invited for dinner, when we entered the house boy did it smell of garlic!! 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had the garlic bouillabaisse and Rojaan had the 40 clove chicken. We were heading east and stopped at a Factory outlet mall. Rojaan wanted to buy something at Pier 1 imports. but every time either of us opened our mouth the server took another step backwards. No idea why. 1 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grand Duchess Posted July 17 #21312 Share Posted July 17 For something more fancy, in Zug they invented the Chriesiwurscht a while ago, obviously couldn't process all their cherries in schnaps. There are two versions, one to grill (which I like better) and one to heat in water. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you have the garlic ice cream? A very zen experience: the bite of the garlic contrasted with the soothing creamy mouthfeel and cold as yin and yang [or vice versa, I never remember which is which] 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
