My garlic stays pretty good from harvest in late June till early in the new year, but then serious sprouting starts, so I mince and freeze several dozen cloves' worth, flat in a ziploc bag. The food processor works great to make a more or less consistent mince. Still have to peel the cloves, though.
Dave Marshall (@dkmarsh.bsky.social) reply parent
Well. I use garlic granules, not powder, and Iād have to say it has an entirely different set of applications from fresh garlic. And yes, I use fresh garlic. I even grow it!

So they'll conjure up some gobbledygook wherein they say that Trump can't do this but they'll allow his having done it to stand while awaiting further clarification of some totally obscure tangential issue by the lower court to which they remanded the case.

Even a small upright freezer (ours is 5 cu ft) holds a remarkable amount of preserved produce. We do corn, green beans, tomato sauce, and bell peppers. Plus we get an ~18 lb turkey at Thanksgiving (for 2) and freeze several pounds of meat and several quarts of stock.
