Garlic has a strong, pungent flavour, and for most people garlic is only eaten in small quantities. Garlic can be eaten raw or cooked; raw garlic has a sharp flavour, and the longer the garlic is cooked, the flavour becomes milder and sweeter. Garlic can be roasted, stewed, stir-fried, or used in a salad dressing or as a marinade. It was originally cultivated in Asia but is now used across a variety of cuisines including Italian, French and Middle Eastern.
