I thought everyone used it

My husband loves garlic, so we use it alot it in cooking. I've come quite accustomed to it and dishes that I used to not use it in, when I have other peoples seem pretty bland to me. We put whole cloves of garlic in our roasts and it is so good, might be bad for the breath but hey thats what toothpaste and gum is for!! Also besides flavoring your food its really good for you.

Traditionally, we use garlic for almost every dish...there are very few dishes that do not use garlic. And I love garlic...so I use quite a bit of garlic in my dishes. But I've never had the problem of 'garlic breath'...maybe because it's cooked well. But sometimes when I'm lazy to peel garlic, I cook dishes that don't use garlic at all. There is a group in India...who do not use onions or garlic at all in their dishes. It is taboo according to their religion and there are special restaurants for them...or special dishes are prepared for them in the regular restaurants.

Yes I do, I bake a chicken in a pot sometimes and throw garlic cloves in it. It tastes AMAZING but a million breath mints won't cure the smell :)

It is used in our Indian dishes and its a good source of mineral and vitamins. We also use is frequently in our dishes. It helps us in our digestion. I agree with you, that some people do not like its taste and do not eat thosed cooked vegetables, which have garlic in it.

Yes I like using garlic in cooking. I used to grate it with a cheese grater, but I went and bought a garlic press last week. I like it in many things, with other herbs and spices too. If you are cooking with tomato based foods, then get the tomatoes warm before adding the garlic and the flavours will combine much better. It is always a good idea to brush teeth between meals or chew minty gum in any case, so garlic is no worse than anything else on the breath, you need to be hygienic about these things.

WE use a lot of garlic in our cooking and in condiments as well. Usually we use it when we stir fry. I like the smell of garlic especially in friend peanuts when it gets a little brown. Its healthy to the body and I like it and when its with the other dishes, it doe snot really leave any bad smell. « Gab »

oh yes... i do... i love garlic and always use it in most of my cooking... and i don't find that my mouth smells bad after that... fortunately, my hubby also loves garlic as well... so we don't have a problem in terms of food as we have the same taste...

I love the smell of garlic. Its yummy, it adds a certain zest to the food, a very subtle smell and flavour without which somehow the same food would have tasted very bland indeed. Rice is our staple food and if nothing else is available, I would just put some peeled garlic in butter, fry it (heavenly smell) and have it with hot rice. Wonderfully tasty anyday. Same here for pulses and curries. Almost anything smells amazingly appetizing with the addition of a few flakes and the smell does tickle our taste buds.

Yea I use it a fair amount myself....garlic (usually powder but it depends on what i'm making) and Onion are two of the most use spices in this house LOL

we use garlic, actually thy are good for health. i like the taste of garlic mainly in non veg foods. i think it has strong smell but no problem. we use it.

i think so. we add garlic in most of our dishes and i like it. it is healthy too!

Yes,I use it sometimes,a little like them.As I eat it,I can not open my nouth.LoL.

i always use garlic whenever i cook. i really love the smell of it especially when i mince it

everyday,I am using garlic.actually,i don t like it too much.but indian dishes must use it.i don t know why

I use garlic as often as I can when I am cooking. I like the way it tastes and I like that you can use it practically in everything and it won't make the dish taste bad.

I am very fond of garlic, powdered, minced, crushed chopped, pickled, roasted, stuffed in an olive, you name it - we like it! We love garlic pizza too! just poke some holes in your spread dough - coat it with olive oil and sprinkle on some italian seasoning - now spread over top some sauteed garlic or even a lot of garlic powder if you prefer... top with mozzerella , bake and voila! (also good with some diced tomatoes on top)

I use garlic all the time. I have a container of garlic salt sitting on the back of my stove so it is easy to reach. I love garlic. Besides tasting good, it is good for you.

Hi arka, I always use it, not only for the flavour and taste. It is good for health too. too much of garlic is also bad for health. You can have garlic pearls after food as supplements if you do not take garlic otherwise. Garlic and its cousins (onions, chives and scallions) are probably the most intriguing of all vegetables. Garlic lowers cholesterol, reduces the risk of heart disease, fights infection and boosts immunity. The studies suggest that garlic may: lower total cholesterol lower LDL ("bad") cholesterol lower blood pressure help keep blood thin, reducing the risk of blood clots and stroke, function as an antioxidant. There are also some preliminary findings suggesting that garlic may lower elevated serum levels of homocysteine.
