Garlic
Pink garlic ⚖
510400
Pink garlic, selected by Le Delas, is a prestigious variety particularly prized in fine dining for its delicate aroma and excellent shelf life. Its cloves, protected by skins with characteristic pinkish hues, offer a subtle flavour, less pungent than that of white garlic. This high-quality product is a must-have in professional kitchens for adding an elegant, lingering hint of garlic to dishes without excessive bitterness.
Professional uses, preparation and storage:
► Culinary bases: It is the ingredient of choice for cold or hot infusions in cooking oils, compound butters or garlic creams. Its mildness allows it to be incorporated into delicate emulsions without masking the flavour of other ingredients.
► Slow cooking: Used whole (with its skin) when roasting meat or root vegetables, it slowly caramelises to offer a melt-in-the-mouth, sweet texture, ideal for accompanying lamb or full-flavoured poultry.
► Preparation: For optimal digestibility, it is advisable to remove the central germ. For raw preparations, such as aioli or pesto, pink garlic adds a subtle intensity and a fresh, aromatic flavour.
► Storage: An exceptionally long-lasting product. It should be stored in a dry, cool and well-ventilated place, away from direct light to prevent premature sprouting and preserve the firmness of the cloves.
