LEER EN ESPAÑOL

You could say it was accidental. The high consumption and the love for garlic within the Orientals are well-known, but like everywhere in the world, they do not like the lingering smell.

Then, a researcher in Japan found a way to develop odorless garlic and among the many tests done, he put a whole head of garlic, with full coverage of shells, in a smoking process (with a certain type of wood from a Japanese tree) and fermentation, for a certain time at a certain temperature and humidity.

Black garlic, a superfood many haven’t heard of

After this period, the scientist noted that, besides the cloves taking a blackish tone, it also lost about 97% of the smell that it had. But when he analyzed it, he realized that the common components that constitute garlic, and of course its properties as well, had amazingly increased 10 times.

This was the beginning of a whole marketing process and is now widely known throughout Japan.
