Description: Russian Red GarlicJust Harvested June 2024 Price is for 1 lb of bulbs The popularity of this garlic has to do with its spicy flavor and lingering aftertaste. The red string on these bulbs lets you know Russian Red is very bold and does the job when you need a big garlic kick either raw or when cooked. Bulbs can vary in size, but the cloves are large and marbled with deep reds and brown. Russian Red garlic is a variety of garlic that is prized for its strong, pungent flavor. It is typically used in cooked dishes, as the flavor can be too overwhelming to eat raw. Infusing oil with Russian Red Garlic creates a flavorful base for cooking. Simply add peeled garlic cloves to a bottle of olive oil and let it sit for a few weeks to infuse the oil with the garlic's aroma and taste.
