Pickled garlic in organic olive oil from MANI

Pickled Greek garlic in olive oil is not only a Mediterranean classic but also a miracle ingredient in the kitchen. Because it gives you twice the flavour. The garlic in olive oil with herbs is the result of traditional handcrafting. The hand-selected Greek garlic is marinated in high-quality organic extra virgin olive oil and refined with selected Mediterranean herbs such as rosemary, oregano and thyme.

Dual use:

• Garlic: The mild, aromatic garlic cloves are ideal for refining dishes such as salads, jacket potatoes, fish or as an ingredient in sauces and marinades.
• Olive oil: The olive oil, infused with the flavour of garlic and herbs, is ideal as a dressing base or for seasoning dips and sauces.

Pickled garlic I Shelf life and flavour

To preserve the freshness and flavour of the garlic, we recommend storing the product away from light and heat. Once opened, the garlic should always be covered with olive oil, stored in a cool place and consumed within three weeks. The difference in flavour between fresh and pickled garlic is as follows: raw, fresh garlic is the most aromatic and pungent. Pickled garlic, on the other hand, is somewhat milder, as the olive oil takes away some of the garlic's pungency. In terms of ingredients, the difference is small.

What is pickled garlic used for?

Pickled garlic is a fantastic ingredient for adding the finishing touch to many Mediterranean dishes. As the flavour of garlic is somewhat milder than that of fresh, raw garlic, pickled garlic is a good choice for adding refined and subtle flavour. Here are some tasty ideas:

For salads: A Greek farmer's salad is already a highlight with its fresh ingredients such as cucumber, red onions, tomatoes, green peppers, feta, kalamata olives, olive oil and apple cider vinegar. But pickled garlic gives it that certain something. Mix finely chopped, pickled garlic cloves with a little olive oil from the jar and a dash of apple cider vinegar to make a delicious dressing - this gives the salad a wonderfully spicy and aromatic flavour.

Soups and stews: Italian minestrone in particular benefits from the mild flavour of pickled garlic. Already incorporated into the vegetable base, it adds a wonderful depth that perfectly complements the fresh flavours of the minestrone.

Fish and vegetable dishes: Pickled garlic goes well with baked or grilled fish dishes. Served with jacket potatoes and fresh herb quark, chopped garlic gives the potatoes a harmonious, flavourful note. It also goes perfectly with grilled vegetables.

Dressings and dips: In addition to pickled garlic, the aromatic oil from the pickled garlic can also be used. This is ideal for refining dressings and dips. In tzatziki, a dash of garlic oil adds a special touch and emphasises the freshness of yoghurt and cucumber. Our recommendation: herb quark with pickled garlic

To make an aromatic herb quark with pickled garlic, place 250 g of quark in a bowl and stir until smooth. Stir in two to three finely chopped cloves of pickled garlic and 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Add fresh, chopped herbs such as parsley, chives and dill, season with salt, pepper and a squeeze of lemon juice to taste. Mix everything well and leave to infuse briefly. Tastes great with jacket potatoes, bread or as a dip with vegetables!
