I know onion has antiseptic properties, but never heard of garlic as anaesthetic?

If you filled a sack with garlic you could beat someone unconscious with it.

love the stuff - we get through between 1 & 2 bulbs a week of the larger bulb variety. Just purchased a stunning garlic crusher (would not normally ever consider paying +£20 for a garlic crusher, but in need of a new one and I finally decided it may be worth trying... fantastic item that even crushes ginger as well.

Link please. We've just broken a good 'un and the other we have is not great.

Roast Garlic in it's skin; when cooked squeeze it out on to bread and spread like butter, very nice.
Also when cooking Pork slice garlic thinly, create slits in the meat with a short knife and insert the garlic before cooking, infuses the meat whilst cooking.
Or for a real garlicphile a french dish called chicken stuffed with garlic, yes you've guessed, take your chicken and put as may cloves of garlic into the body cavity as you can, normally somewhere between 25 - 30 then roast the chicken.

I know onion has antiseptic properties, but never heard of garlic as anaesthetic? For some reason I don't think I will be putting it to test any time soon though..

I understood gangsters would tip their bullets with Garlic to create blood poisoning.

 

[T.M.H.N.E.T]

Love it. In fact I can smell it currently

Use a silver bullet for multi-purpose anti-mythical beast ammunition, for when you are unsure whether you are up against a werewolf or a vampire.

Absolutely love garlic, however it depends on what the recipe is as sometimes it's better to use less to not overwhelm the other flavours.

Garlic mayo, yum. Improves many things. Moules & Frites are impossible without it.
