I love garlic and enjoy eating it prepared in many ways just for the fun of it. The first time I ever tried pickled garlic I knew it was something special just from rush I got and how good it made me feel even though I didn't know how special it really was then. While pickled garlic is worth eating just for the taste and snacking quality alone, I have learned that there are other aspects to pickled garlic that make it even better because of how it good it makes you feel and for how long.
While eating garlic raw, cooked or processed usually results in more odorous fat-soluble compounds, pickled garlic has less odorous water-soluble compounds.
Fat-solubles circulate via the lymphatic system whereas water-soluble compounds go directly into the bloodstream - that's where the rush comes from.
Recent research (Lawson and Wang, 1995) shows that garlic soaking in vinegar gains potency as it ages and that both the garlic and the vinegar have steadily increasing amounts of S Allyl cysteine for about 5 years.
This means the older it gets, the better it gets and the more tart it gets and the more intense the tingle you get when you eat it. By adding a little wine,the taste can be improved and even more different water-soluble compounds are created.
Buy a few spare bottles and let some of them age gracefully. I ate a lot of pickled garlic in my quest to find some good enough to sell with pride on my website and I have chosen to sell Hosgood's products because I believe they are of the highest quality and well made by people who care about quality and safety and their reputation. I have tried their products and I really like them or I wouldn't sell them and if y'all don't buy them, I'll have to eat them - but that'll be OK, they'll just get better with age.

These huge green olives stuffed with crunchy garlic are absolutely fabulous giving four different satisfactions at once - olive, garlic, crunchy and briny. They are Tart, salty, olivey and each time you chew you get another crunchy explosion of garlicky goodness that you can feel course right through your whole body. If you can overcome the impulse to keep them all for yourself, they make a great gift for that hard to please gourmet friend or to get a lot of rave comments as an hors d'oeuvres at that upscale coctail party. Note: these things are so addictive, you may not want to share them with anyone. Better get at least one extra jar - you're gonna need it.
Large 10 oz. jars just $8.00 each

Fabulosa! Finally, a rich garlic salsa that doesn't blow your socks off. Medium is the closest real Texans ever get to Mild - just ask one, she'll tell you.
This supurb extra-thick salsa focuses on the garlic content and using milder chiles resulting in a full, rich flavor that has a spicy zing to it.
For a welcome change from the same old thin salsas with a lot of heat but little real flavor, try this rich tasting, crunchy salsa that will perk you up and get your guests to raving over it.
It's the crunch that's missing from most salsas; this one is really thick and has plenty of satisfying crunch.
Large size is 12 ounces and costs $6.00.

Fabulous! Finally, a rich- tasting, full-bodied Hot garlic salsa that you can actually taste and doesn't burn you out. This thick, crunchy hot salsa focuses on the garlic and more jalapeno peppers than the medium salsa above so that it has all the same great depth of flavor and pleasing chewability but with more heat. It makes you feel good all over. The crunchy garlic is the secret.
Large size is 12 ounces and costs $6.00 |
Fabuloso! Finally, a hot and strong garlic salsa with teeth! Fiery Hot Garlic Salsa has all the richness of flavor of the our other salsas but with habanero chiles instead of jalapenos, resulting in a much hotter salsa that is not for those who are tender of stomach or timid of palate.
Large size is 12 ounces and costs $6.00.
