I harvested a little garlic on the weekend and wow, it smells amazing! For the next few weeks it will hang in our little cottage in the backyard drying, and I will wait, patiently, until I can use it.
Yum garlic! Your gardens look awesome Kim :) It's nice how the business of preparing and planting the garden transitions to a more laid back pace of harvesting and occasional weed pulling.
You too? We harvested ours Monday night. I should have thought about where to dry it beforehand; I ended up scrambling to rig up a piece of wire screen on a pair of sawhorses in the shed...which is so far from an ideal setup it's almost ridiculous (we barely have enough room in the shed as it is...). But I cannot wait to be able to use it... xo
yum!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to eat it!
DeleteWow! That's quite a bit! I love fresh garlic.
ReplyDeleteI can smell them here-heavenly! My dad grows garlic and if I'm lucky I get a bagful :)
ReplyDeleteIt is heavenly. Hope you're a lucky girl this year :)
DeleteYummy!!!

ReplyDeleteThanks so much Josee. I totally agree, we are loving the slower pace around the garden right now. Although the canning is about to pick up in pace...
Deletethat's so cool. I've never harvested garlic but I've been curious about it. bet it smells amazing.
ReplyDeleteIt is really easy to grow and tastes to good. Definitely try it.

ReplyDeleteHaha, that is too funny. Hey as along as it dries that is all the matters, right? I can't wait either, we are counting down the days.
DeleteThe garlic looks perfect! It reminds me of my grandfather who was always so proud of his garlic. Sweet memories :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, I will let you know how perfect once we taste it :) Happy to bring back those memories for you xo
DeleteI which I had done the same, sur next year I will ! Seems very tasty
ReplyDeleteNext year for sure, keep in mind that garlic has to go in the ground in the fall, for a summer harvest :) Enjoy!
