Modern research has shown that garlic has the ability to lower cholesterol and blood pressure as well as offer protection against strokes and heart disease. It also appears that consuming regular amounts of garlic helps to fend off infections including the common cold. Further research is also being done to determine if garlic provides protection against stomach cancer. With all this going for it and since it adds so much punch to so many things, there's no reason not to include it as much as possible in your cooking.
One of the easiest ways to keep garlic on hand is to buy the already peeled garlic sold in small plastic containers. Pour enough olive oil over the garlic cloves to cover them completely. Stored in the refrigerator they will keep for weeks.
And, yes, my toe was broken and still hurts. And, yes, this is the meal we missed last Thursday.
