1. Oh, thank you!
I love this.
Years ago, I was going to make pasta al pesto for a date and the recipe I found called for two cloves of garlic. I did exactly the same thing! Fortunately, I realized my mistake before I killed us both. |

3. Actually, you might have killed evil microorganisms if you had kept them in!!
Having said that, I was once served mac n cheese with an abundance of garlic - it was a bit much, to put it lightly, so I sympathize!

13. It's more common than you think...
I have had people at the grocery store ask me if a bulb was considered a clove.

4. My friend used two bulbs instead of cloves in lasagna once...
She said that even the clothes in her closet smelled like garlic!

7. Garlic miso soup with tofu for lunch now
Source>>https://www.thespruceeats.com/easy-garlic-miso-soup-recipe-3377996
Ingredients 5 cups water 1/4 cup miso 3 cloves garlic, minced 3/4 tsp garlic powder 1/2 cup sliced shiitake mushrooms 1 tbsp soy sauce 1 tbsp sesame oil 1 block tofu, any kind, sliced into small cubes 3 scallions (green onions), sliced Ditections Steps to Make It Heat water just to a low simmer, then reduce the heat so the water is hot but not actually simmering or boiling and then stir in the miso. You want to be careful that the water doesn't boil when you add in the miso, but rather it should be just below the boiling point. Stir well to fully dissolve the miso and make sure there are no clumps, then, stir in the remaining ingredients and allow to heat for a couple minutes, just to gently soften the garlic and mushrooms. Stir well, and serve. No shitake mushrooms, sliced button ones. |

8. Thanks for this yummy vegan soup recipe.
I have been trying to eat mostly vegetarian except when I am tempted by grilled trout or the occasional grass fed roast beef. It seems to help reduce arthritis inflammation if I eat vegan, but I'm not an Orthodox Vegan.

9. That recipe sounds AWESOME! Sorry for shouting, but I just so happen to have all
of the ingredients on hand and was wondering what kind of soup I was going to make tomorrow.

10. If you have time, drain the tofu
Wrap it in paper towels, put a weight on top, cube it, bake the cubes turning once, I like the slightly more chewy texture in the soup.

11. Thanks. That is my standard for tofu preparation. I am relatively new to tofu
cookery. Not real sure of other ways to cook it but I don't like a soft or rubbery texture that happens without your prescribed method.

12. I like scrambled extra firm w/ mushrooms& spinach or
mixed with with cheese, salsa & Mexican spices in a tortillia for a b-fast wrap.
Turmeric helps to make it look like scrambled eggs. |

18. Oh, I have to try that. Have white miso and everything else
but the tofu, and I do have the rest of a package of shirataki-type noodles. Yum. Just wish I saw it earlier. Perfect gray day for it.

15. I had a variation on this issue but with shallots.
When the recipe calls for two shallots is it the two "cloves" inside the bulb or is the bulb itself.

16. Use the whole thing.
Only about half of them actually have two lobes.
They're so variable in size that "one shallot" is almost meaningless anyway; when I'm developing recipes at work I always measure the shallots and onions. |
