GARLIC

At Zestiny we grow Russian garlic (elephant garlic). It offers all the comfort of normal garlic with a softer, sweeter profile. Its large cloves are easy to work with and they mellow beautifully when cooked.

Uses

  • Roast whole for a creamy texture
  • Sauté gently for mild flavour
  • Add to soups, stews, and sauces
  • Use raw in dressings without overpowering

Storage

  • Store whole bulbs in a cool, dry place
  • Avoid refrigeration
