Van Zyverden 3ct Cloves Garlic Purple Creole

Product Description

Garlic, like shallots and onions, is a member of the allium family and is a species within the allium genus. Garlic is one of the most popular vegetables used to season in cooking. Studies have shown there are many benefits to adding garlic to your dishes. It is said to lower blood pressure, reduce inflammation, help lower cholesterol, support immune function and may reduce blood clotting. Garlic is easy to grow and is a great addition to your edible garden. Creole garlic is known for its distinctive flavor, which is often described as spicy, robust, and pungent. The bulbs are generally smaller than those of other varieties, having a tight, purple-tinged skin. They are prized for their strong flavor and aroma. Purple Creole is sometimes referred to as ‘Creole Red’ due its bulb coloring. Creole garlic is typically grown in the southern United States, as far south as Louisiana, and is a popular choice for Southern gardeners. The garlic bulbs we ship are usually on average between 1-1.5″ in diameter, which by industry standards weigh approximately 12-16 bulbs per pound.
