According to Days of the Year (www.daysoftheyear.com), today is Garlic Day! The origins of this obscure holiday might not be entirely clear, but its purpose is obvious: take to the kitchen and celebrate the many uses of garlic by cooking up a feast"- daysoftheyear.com
Not only does garlic add intense flavor to your favorite savory recipe, it also provides a wealth of health-promoting benefits, such as reducing the risk of heart disease, lowering cholesterol levels, fighting off viruses and infections, cleansing the body of toxic metals, and so much more.
Garlic has found its way in many cuisines around the world, and in honor of Garlic Day, we wanted to share of our favorite recipes. "For one day only, put aside your concerns about bad breath and indulge in twenty-four hours of delicious, garlicky goodness – it is Garlic Day, a day to recognize this pungent little clove"- daysoftheyear.com.
