Bought it at Walmart Mexico.  

 

I can google recipes, but wondered if anyone can suggest what to do with it.  Something easy-ish.  

 

I've never tasted it at restaurants either.

I love black garlic and am never without it. I get it both from regular multi-cloved garlic and from the local single head garlic.

I use it mostly simply as a replacement for regular garlic but particularly like it with pasta. I add it to pesto, too. And I consider my black garlic risotto to be a winner.

 

You can mash it into mayo and use that as you prefer.

 

But a personal favourite is this stir fried chicken with black garlic, here served with orzo.

When I had a second home in the countryside, I used to blacken garlic myself, but my neighbours in the city wouldn't thank me for trying that here, so now I buy it from the store.
