Details

If you love garlic, these seeds are for you! The flat, tender leaves have a flavor midway between garlic and onion. The subtle garlic flavor is perfect for use in uncooked dishes where raw regular garlic might be overwhelming or too spicy. Delicious in salads, spreads and flavored vinegars.
