Tip - Getting More Flavor From Garlic
Garlic, How to obtain a mild or stronger flavor from the
same clove or bulb:
The flavor comes from sulfur compounds that are exposed when
the membranes of the individual cells are severed or broken
and come in contact with the air. So...understanding this we
can assume that a clove of garlic that is run through a garlic
press or smashed under your chefs knife will offer your dish
a stronger flavor then will garlic that has been sliced or
quartered. A roasted or simmered bulb will be even milder.
