Elephant Garlic Approximately 6 Garlic Cloves £6.95
Not a true garlic and most closely related to the leek (with a swollen stem base). Elephant Garlic, as the name suggests produces jumbo sized bulbs with relatively few very large cloves – around four times the size of others – which are milder tasting and less pungent than true garlic. Very versatile in the kitchen – use it as a vegetable sliced and grilled, or sauteed in butter or olive oil, as a flavouring for casseroles or sliced raw in salads. Approximately 6 cloves. The sections, or cloves of each bulb should be separated and planted just below the soil surface from early November to late December. Space rows 15-20cm (6-8″) apart and allow 10cm (4″) between cloves. Lift and dry the plants, as with onions, once the foliage turns yellow in July. Full growing instructions included. Garlic has become an essential part of many kitchen gardens as our food tastes have changed and its health benefits have become more widely known (it lowers blood pressure, fat and cholesterol levels and combats bacterial, fungal and viral infections).
