I would like to process the garlic flowers from my garden. How should I proceed?

At home, simply put the chopped garlic flowers in oil with some lemon juice and store in the fridge. This will start a slow fermentation process. Lemon juice is used to decrease the pH and to promote the lactic bacteria that are naturally present.

IMPORTANT: It is essential to keep homemade garlic flowers well refrigerated to prevent the growth of the “Clostridium botulinum” bacteria, the bacteria responsible for botulism.
