There is Something about Garlic!

Posted on November 6, 2008
Freshly Cut Wild Garlic Stems at Langza, Spiti

You either like Garlic or hate it. I have not met too many people who are ambivalent about it. I belong to the camp who love it. A few days back I was eating Pasta at our campus restaurant (the perks of being partially associated with a hotel management school, even though I am not directly associated) and there were cloves of cooked garlic in the dish. I just loved it. Today I was talking to the instructor and asked him how did it tasted so good. Hmm, they baked it after marinating it in umm, many things. Sounded really complicated to me. So I gave up all the plans of making something like that myself.

Wild Garlic Flower, Spiti Region

So, today I am going to be content with posting some pictures of wild garlic growing in the Spiti region. When I was there I loved the colors of the wild garlic flower. I was also allowed to take one wild garlic out of the heap that you see in the first photograph.

    Thanks for the fresh garlic picture. I had never seen a fresh garlic before. No comments on “liking” garlic though 🙂

    Kusum, but this one was different from the normal Garlic that I have seen. I know Garlic is not everyone’s cup of tea.
