Garlic, O Beautiful Garlic

I really really love garlic!  Garlic bread, garlic pizza, aioli (obviously Spain's version of ambrosia) ..........  Think you might get the idea.  I adore the flavor - eer, think the boyfriend may have to learn to love it as much as me.

Apparently it has anti-viral, anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties is full of zinc, vitamin b and calcium ..... so not only does it taste good but it is also really good for you.  At Masterchef (which I visit religiously) I found the Garlic Farm (www.thegarlicfarm.co.uk)

Based on the Isle of Wight, these people are truly brilliant.  They make garlic mayo, sell seeds, pickle the garlic (Vampires Revenge is wicked) and even make garlic beer.  Have I tasted it?  Not yet but I do feel a pilgrimage coming on.  Ooo, now that would be fun - perhaps next year, to improve the food blogging - naturally - I can visit a few more foodie places.

Now that is a thought ..............
