🌱Fermented Superfoods Spotlight #2 — Black Garlic

🧬 Why It Matters

Black garlic starts as regular garlic, then transforms through slow fermentation into a soft, sweet, umami‑rich superfood with amplified benefits:

- Higher antioxidant levels → supports cellular protection

- Gentler on digestion compared to raw garlic

- Natural immune support from sulfur‑based compounds

It’s one of the most approachable ferments — no strong smell, no intense flavor, and incredibly versatile.

🍽️ How to Use

- Mash into sauces or dressings

- Add to stir‑fries or roasted vegetables

- Spread on toast like a savory jam

- Blend into marinades for a deep, caramelized flavor

Small amounts deliver big flavor and big benefits.
