From Clove to Table: The Entire Life Cycle of Garlic｜從一瓣蒜到餐桌：大蒜的完整生命週期

Garlic is planted in the autumn, awaits the snow in the winter, yields its shoots in the spring, and is harvested in the summer. Throughout the cycle of the four seasons, it has accompanied me through three of them. Sweet pickled garlic offers a pure sweetness; Laba garlic strikes a balance between tartness and sweetness; and garlic chili sauce brings the heat. Much like the year itself—a blend of sweetness, sourness, and spice. Garlic lettuce, dry-pot potatoes, steamed sea bass, sliced ​​pork with garlic sauce... Through a winter of quiet dormancy, they have exchanged their slumber for this entire table of culinary abundance. 秋天種蒜，冬天等雪，春天吃苗，夏天收蒜。 一年四季，它陪我過了三個季節。 糖蒜是甜頭的，臘八蒜是酸甜的，蒜蓉辣醬是辣的， 就像這一年，有甜有酸有辣， 蒜蓉生菜、乾鍋馬鈴薯、蒸鱸魚、蒜泥白肉… 它們用一冬天的蟄伏，換來我們這一整桌的豐盛。 #rurallife #cooking #chinesefood #food #recipe #delicious #鄉村生活 #garlic #planting
