Many people store garlic so that it is always at hand, because with its help any dish becomes tasty, aromatic and intriguing.

However, it is extremely important to learn how to store the product so that it remains as fresh, strong and high-quality as possible.

Some people use the refrigerator for this purpose, which is a big mistake. As a result, the garlic loses some of its aroma and becomes much softer.

What is the best way to store garlic?

Take a dry and clean glass container that comes with a tight-fitting lid. You can even use a regular jar if you can close it tightly.

We immediately separate the garlic into cloves, but leave the peel. If at this stage you notice that some of the cloves are too soft, then it is better to use them for cooking in the near future, rather than storing them.

Pour the selected garlic into the container. Meanwhile, mix one part of flour with ten parts of soda and add the resulting mixture into the container.

All that remains is to close the garlic and shake the jar several times.
