Elephant Garlic
(Allium ampeloprasum)
Not really a true garlic, Elephant garlic is more closely related to the leek family. Its common name probably came from its giant size. Each big clove can be almost the size of a whole head of regular garlic!
Elephant Garlic flavors most dishes with a softer, less intense flavor than regular garlic. Perfect for a mellow, sweet garlic taste that doesn't overpower other ingredients. Bake the big cloves and spread their succulent roasted interiors to top bruschetta or baked potatoes. Excellent for soups and stews. Medium to late maturity.
