The Stinking Rose: Unlocking the power of garlic
Wednesday, 21 March 2012 09:48 Joe Benevento
Garlic was my first love of the kitchen, and totally changed the way I looked at food forever after. I was 12 years old, and my mom’s friend was cooking dinner. He was a “real Italian, from New York,” and on the menu that night was linguini and clams, with garlic bread. As he went about the kitchen, creating magic, my task was peeling and chopping the garlic. I was instantly hooked. Thirty years later, with over half of those years spent in kitchens all over the country, I am still hooked.
