Pickled Garlic image

When garlic is pickled, its flavor mellows, becoming slightly sweet and tangy -- yet it remains very garlicky. The pickling process is quick -- after sitting just one night, the cloves are ready to be popped from their skins and tossed in salads, spread on bread, or eaten as is.
