And what a beautiful harvest! I agree with Ivory – garlic goes into almost everything I make unless it is sweet! Can’t get enough. One of my favorite ways to fix just garlic is to remove outer husks, trim the top of the whole head so the tops are exposed and bake (or nuke) mostly submurged in some chicken broth & dotted with butter & chives. When it is soft squeeze from the husks and spread on crispy baguette & dip into the broth. Just make sure you don’t have a date or that your significant other has some as well!

I have garlic growing wild at my home but the bulbs are very tiny – almost more work than it is worth! I tried replanting some this fall – perhaps they are like flower bulbs and need to be thinned every so often? We will see. I also planted some elaphant garlic cloves from the grocery. Don’t know if they grow in my area (NW OH) but I hope so!

I read to plant in the late fall so they can begin to root before it frosts and harvest when the leaves begin to turn brown. Don’t need to water much especially after established. It makes it more “garlicy” just like witholding water from hot pepper plants after established (unless they begin to wilt of course!) makes the peppers hotter.
