It’s hard to forking believe the Elephant Garlic is a close relative to the Leek and isn’t a Garlic at all. Elephant Garlic is a member of the onion family and is NOT a true garlic.

They are best used raw when you want a hint of the garlic kind of taste.

Elephant Garlic has a higher sugar content than real garlic and burns very easily and when burnt  becomes very bitter.

Elephant Garlic isn’t Garlic.
