What Is Black Garlic?

Black garlic is aged garlic that's been fermented at low heat over several weeks. The result? Sweet, sticky cloves with deep umami flavor, mild acidity, and none of garlic’s traditional bite. It’s prized for its antioxidant richness and cardiovascular benefits—supporting healthy blood pressure and cholesterol levels while delivering a delicious complexity to any dish.

Ingredients

  • 2 slices of whole grain or sourdough bread, toasted
  • 1 ripe avocado
  • 1 tablespoon I Love Black Garlic Organic Purée (or 3 Organic Peeled Cloves mashed)
  • 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
  • Pinch of sea salt
  • Pinch of red chili flakes (optional)
  • Microgreens or arugula for garnish
  • Drizzle of olive oil (optional)

Instructions

  1. Toast your bread slices to golden perfection.
  2. In a small bowl, mash the avocado with lemon juice and sea salt.
  3. Spread a thin layer of I Love Black Garlic Purée on each slice of toast.
  4. Top with the mashed avocado mixture and smooth evenly.
  5. Sprinkle with chili flakes and garnish with microgreens or arugula.
  6. Drizzle a little olive oil over the top for extra richness (optional).
  7. Serve immediately and enjoy every savory bite!
