I've heard that one can store peeled garlic cloves in olive oil.


You need to soak the peeled cloves in vinegar overnight to acidify them,
then they're OK for a few months refrigerated in oil. And the vinegar
makes great salad dressing!

Or just pickle the cloves.... I've got a couple of recipes on my personal
page in the .sig below.

FWIW, much of the large amount of garlic consumed by Asians in general and
Koreans in particular is in pickled form.

Yours in bad breath,
