🧄 What is Black Garlic?
Black garlic is fermented white garlic that's been slowly aged until it turns soft, sweet, and dark in color. But it's more than a flavor bomb—it’s packed with antioxidants, supports heart health, and contains compounds known to benefit gut health and immunity. The result is a savory ingredient that brings both nutrition and depth to any dish, especially ramen.
