🌱 Producer Introduction：
Born in a family of agriculture, I have followed my elders in farming since I was young, and I went out to earn a living to middle-aged. At that time, I discovered that a lot of pesticides on foreign crops were discovered. In view of this, I established my "Hong Kong Organic Fruits and Vegetables Farm" in 2006.
To be listed as "organic" is the industry of conscience. We have promised organic regulations for more than 13 years. The crops we produce make my family, friends and customers who buy my crops feel trust.
Now the farm has 18 acres of land, and organically grown crops are selected as the characteristics of the farm. Examples include: strawberry, Taiwan candied date, pineapple, fig, dragon fruit, passion fruit, guava, potato, purple yam, variegated carrot, Variegated cherry tomato, rice, corn, mushroom organic products and organic seasonal fruits and vegetables, etc.

It originated in Uzbekistan in central Asia, and was later introduced to countries such as West Asia and the Mediterranean Sea. Currently, garlic is also grown in Europe. Garlic has a cultivation history of more than 5,000 years, and both ancient Egyptians and ancient Greeks ate garlic for healing and health care. According to ancient records, garlic was introduced into China during the Western Han Dynasty and developed into many varieties throughout China. At present, Sichuan, Xinjiang, Jiangsu, Fujian, Taiwan and other places are mostly planted, and the main producing areas are Shandong and Henan.
Variety：According to the size and color of the garlic cloves, there are: (1) large garlic cloves (larger garlic cloves are suitable for growing garlic, with a spicier taste and higher yield); (2) small garlic cloves (smaller garlic cloves are suitable for cultivating garlic seedlings);
(3) White garlic (lighter taste, lower oil content); (4) Red garlic (more spicy taste, higher oil content, lower yield); (5) Black garlic (white garlic after fermentation Garlic, high concentration of allicin);
(6) Solitary garlic (not divided into cloves, only composed of a single clove, less yield, more pungent, and higher in oil content.)
Supply Season：Garlic seedlings (garlic mature but unbearable plants) are generally mature from November to March). The bulbs are mature late, and are usually excavated when the leaves from April to May. Because garlic will have dormancy after harvest, proper storage can be preserved for nine months. Hong Kong is available all year round.
Storage Method：Placed in a dry and ventilated place, too much humidity will accelerate the germination of garlic. No need to refrigerate for storage. In summer, special attention should be paid to moth-eaten problems.
#Should Be / Avoided：
Pros: Western medical research indicates that garlic can significantly reduce cholesterol and blood pressure, and improve the ability of anti-coagulation, thereby promoting cardiovascular health.
Taboo: People with yin deficiency and fire are not allowed to eat. Allicin in garlic has a stimulating effect on the stomach, and people with gastrointestinal diseases should not eat it. Chinese medicine believes that garlic is a hot medicine, and excessive consumption will cause fire, resulting in deficiency of liver yin and kidney yin. Excessive consumption of garlic for a long time can damage eyesight. The organic acids and allicin in honey will produce substances that irritate the stomach.
*Edible Compatibility：
Affordable: Lean pork can promote blood circulation, quickly eliminate physical fatigue, and enhance physical fitness. Phase gram: Consumption with western medicine may affect the efficacy of western medicine. Because garlic can temporarily promote liver metabolism, speed up the decomposition rate of drugs, and indirectly affect the concentration of drugs in the blood, resulting in a decrease in drug efficacy. Not suitable for consumption with honey, jujube, bayberry, pheasant, Rehmannia glutinosa, Polygonum multiflorum, etc.
Cooking Skills：Due to its strong smell, garlic is often used as a seasoning. Garlic is generally diced and added to main dishes or thoroughly crushed into minced garlic. Allicin is not naturally present in garlic, and must be produced by the chemical action of alliin and alliinase through the chopping process. After allicin is formed, its potency will decline due to oxidation, so minced garlic should be used as soon as possible. Allicin will decompose quickly when exposed to high heat, so it is recommended to add garlic only when the food is nearly cooked. Allicin is also not resistant to alkaline environments, so garlic is also pickled in vinegar.
Notes：Raw garlic is more irritating to the stomach, so it is recommended not to eat it raw. Germinated garlic reduces its therapeutic efficacy. And the latest animal research found that garlic may help weight control.
The breath caused by eating garlic is caused by the volatile sulfide propylene sulfide in garlic. Chewing gum or gargling with strong tea usually does the trick. If the situation does not improve, you can drink a glass of milk. The chemical reaction between milk and garlic can completely remove the garlic smell.
Dish：Stir-fried vegetables with minced garlic, prawns with minced garlic, minced garlic, etc.
Supply Period： Garlic Seedlings (Garlic Mature But Unbearable Plants) Are Generally Mature From November To March).
