This recipe calls for 4 garlic ~~clove~~ bulbs.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 5 months ago

I always assume editing typos in garlic measurements. Sure, they wrote tsp, but they meant tbsp.

4 cloves? What is this, a recipe for white people?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

TL;DR: Probably.

Some facts

I did, in fact, come across a recipe shortly before I saw this post that called for four cloves of garlic. A dish I've since made, and blatantly disregarded the quantity of garlic.
I found the recipe on a search engine. I have it set to "all regions" but anecdotal evidence suggests it prioritizes my region.
I live in a country with majorily Caucasian people, of which I match the majority.
In skimming over my reply I noted I was being vague about the search engine and nationality, which seems silly. DDG and Conflicted States of America.

You measure garlic with your heart, not in cloves or bulbs.

Too much vanilla extract makes things start to taste very unlike vanilla, but adding more garlic just makes it more garlicky.

Garlic is only replaceable by more garlic.

I love how they phrased this. Beautiful

The only time I've regretted this is when I first made hummus

That's when I amended the rule to only apply to COOKED garlic, not raw.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 5 months ago

Tbf though, if the recipe doesn't already call for a shitload of garlic, it's not a recipe for hummus.

Brb making a batch of aioli.

Then just roast that shit a little bit first...

And, when suitable, almond extract

I used to be a completely garliholic until one time a family member made a dish that was so unbelievable garlicky that I haven't been able to eat it in excess since.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

but I don't like being stinky :c

garlic is super delicious, but the moment I'm done eating I have to deal with the aftertaste and smell for hours, and it makes me really uncomfortable
