@@X1ma_ In psychology, catharsis (ancient Greek κάθαρσις "purification") refers to the hypothesis that acting out inner conflicts and repressed emotions leads to a reduction of these conflicts and feelings. Catharsis is primarily used when a reduction of negative emotions (anger, rage) is to be achieved through the - also symbolic - expression or channelling of aggression, such as hitting a punching bag, or the substitute acting out of aggressive feelings in fictitious or virtual form (e.g. via theatre, film, video game). The popular assumption based on Aristotle that aggressive actions have a cathartic effect is controversial and has been refuted many times. Onscure on the other hand... Well, that's just a typo.

Well yes, but actually no. Black garlic is also just garlic, but fermented. There are different kinds of garlic (there are two subspecies of garlic, including ten major groups of varieties in total, and hundreds of varieties or cultivars), but most of them are pretty much the same in how you may use them.

Preserving things is oil is like one of the oldest preservation methods. While there is a risk to get bacteria in- this risk is applicable to literally any type of food that you make at home.

Try tasting the flowers before the small individual flowers open. I've never tried garlic flowers but leeks, chives and several "red"onions all have delicious flowers and the taste is quite strong. I would recommend checking out the rabbit hole that is all and any types of wild garlic (I love ramsons) and the delight with wild garlic is that most people I know only eat the leaves because the root is so small and by leaving the root you get a season supply of yummy leaves. My comment might be completely mute as you might not be able to eat what I've suggested and then I'm sorry for dangling garlic-esc tasting possibilities in front of you. I hope you are able to find something tasty that really scratch that garlic itch for you.

I like the way you think.

Small tip about powdered or dehydrated garlic: if you want a stronger, more pungent flavour, you can re-hydrated (with water, not oils) for a few minutes before putting it to heat. It's actually re-activate the allicin.

the collab with Erwann Heussaff caught me off guard lol. It's true though, no chance you'll only use one clove here in the ph but rather do at least half a head of garlic per dish. Fresh, too, no jarred or pre-prepared garlic.

You forgot pickled garlic! But this was so cool I've always wanted to try black garlic. I'd love to see more food related videos from you guys :)

Like you, I'm more of a cooking enthusiast than a professional chef or cook. But I am still surprised when I meet people who say they don't use onion and/or garlic for most dishes. Even if you only use a small amount, it will add complexity and depth to the flavour of any dish!

God the production on that dinner scene, love it

11:16 How did you get fresh local peaches? Peaches are in season after garlic is in Ontario.

Sure, she got a chef to explain garlic flavour, but I expected to see a review of her own dishes, either by her or by her friends :( all that traveling and she didn't provide a conclusion. Don't get me wrong it was interesting to learn about all the garlic types, but I missed a conclusion.

This is one of the chanels I even click on, when I feel like I'm not too interested in the topic (this time I was, though), just because every video is so well made and so entertaining that I know I'll love it anyway.

I love the editing style. I'm going to be launching my own channel soon, and I'm modeling after the editing style of this channel.

Start off dish by stir frying garlic - carmelizes, cooks down Grated garlic during cooking - Adds acidity and pungency without carmeliIng or cooking it down Confit garlic at the end - Sweetness and jamminess without adding pungency Serve with dehydrated crunchy garlic - flavor additive like salt

a really great preparation i cant believe other cultures go without is ginger-garlic paste. it's a paste of ginger, garlic, vinegar, and salt. it's a staple in Indian cuisine and is insanely good. plus its smell alone is the best amuse bouche anyone could come up with.

Love this video! I wanted to add a fun thing: here in Italy there is a very good and strange type of leek called aglione (big garlic) that looks really identical to garlic, but a lot bigger and more sweet, in a way. You should really try it if you can! PS: pasta aglio e olio is actually called pata aglio, olio e peperoncino in Italy and is made like you said, but without lemon and with lots of chili pepper (it's kind of an university student staple)

As someone on a Mediterranean country I'm slightly shocked by the statement that Italians would use had clove of garlic on a pot of pasta. I'm not Italian, but at that point I double checked what a clove of garlic is (it's the single small thing in a head of garlic)... if a recipe takes garlic its never less than 5-6 cloves, and peeling half or a full head of garlic would be a standard starting step on a recipe, followed by olive oil in a pan.
