The Easiest Black Garlic Recipe - No Foil - Less Smell
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
Lets dive into the mystery that is.. Black Garlic! While some think black garlic is fermented, it actually isn't. It's slow-cooked & aged over 2-6 weeks in a slow cooker, rice cooker, or in my case pressure cooker! Really anything you can seal and keep between 140-170F will work for making black garlic.

Quick UPDATE to this: In the video the temperature I quoted my unit got to were not accurate, I tested my pressure cooker empty and it would get up to nearly 170F, but FULL it's more like 135 - 145 sitting inside. Outside in the cold air it only got up to 117-125 which is why it took me longer than expected to make the black garlic. So keep that in mind if you make your own batch!

The purple on the outside definitely has a stronger better flavor raw or cooked, but black garlic I guess not. Because the flavor difference is definitely pronounced otherwise

@@Passionforfoodrecipes it really helped make the case for me why I should bother to take 4 weeks to do this where I would have to remember to keep turning my pressure cooker back on every day to avoid the automatic shutdown. I wonder if keeping it outside in colder climate like mine (Chicago) will affect the internal temperature and thus the fermentation process though

So I pretty much figured it was due to having it outside that it wasn't ready in two weeks. And sure enough, you inspired me to test it out and while sitting outside (28F) after 4 hours sealed and on the warming setting the pressure cooking seems to be holding steady at 117F, which is not quite warm enough! I image different cookers will perform differently. For the final week I wound up bringing it back inside and stashed it in my basement. And yeah remembering to check the warming setting got annoying, so what I wound up doing was just resetting up twice a day, once when I got up and once when I went to bed. That way it would never be off because I forgot, unless i forgot twice in a row lol.

If all u care about is that it has double the antioxidants then just eat twice as much regular garlic. I just saved you 4 weeks. Youre welcome. More importantly antioxidants naturally occur in the body and as long as you eat some vegetables sometimes you get plenty of them. High doses are not helpful for anything and can cause multiple kinds of cancer and cardiovascular disease(nih.gov). Dont believe grape juice commercials.

@cHAOs9

Electricity is nearly free unless running big appliances (ac, washer/dryer, etc). It costs around 10 cents per kilowatt hour. A rice cooker on warm takes about 30 watts. Thats 333 hours (about 14 days) for about a dollar. So 28 days (4 weeks) straight would cost about 2 bucks. American money. It may cost a different amount in whatever country thinks its ok to yell everything in caps.

You've just infused your black garlic with a ton of petrochemical toxins because you used plastic. Faster is NOT better. The fermentation process takes as long as it does for a reason. It needs that time to naturally produce the healthy constituents which make black garlic good for you. Who wants a long fermented garlic, you ask? I do, as do many other people. Plastic, non-stick anything, aluminum foil etc is going to contaminate your food & create health risks for you & anyone who eats this.
