I rarely bother putting less than half a bulb in anything. Is it correct? Meh, I don't care. My palate is what it is, garlic is good for you, & I'm the person who gets to decide what goes in my mouth, not Andrea. I like to use the right amount, not the white amount.
This is problem woth lemons. They vary so widely around ghe world. Juice of half a lemon means very different thing depending on whether you are in us, Mexico, india or Thailand
Some professional advice: Treat garlic like salt, you can always add more garlic later, but you cannot take it out. If you are serious about your home cooking, keep portioned frozen garlic confit paste on hand.
It’s not the size that matters, it’s how you use it,
It also depends on the age and type of garlic. Some are milder/stronger than others.
It should be supplied in weight. That makes it even more specific…
"exact measurement!"
uses volume
bruh
This is silly, everybody knows if the recipe calls for 3 garlic cloves you but at least 9 cloves to it 🎉
use grams ffs. the volume measurement is pointless if you don't have the same cut
I mean… Weigh it?
"Oh the recipe says I need 6 grams of garlic, how much is this clove? 4 grams, ok let me then get this smaller clove, oh it's 2 grams, perfect."
unpopular opinion>>> if the recipe calls for a certain amount of garlic, I trip it every time.
Should be grams if its really specific
ok heard you loud and clear, 3 solo cloves
When in doubt always add extra…. it's garlic…. cant go wrong.
Nobody puts Garlic in the corner
I’ll skip the garlic, thanks.
And then there's us asian
Measure garlic? HAHA no such thing
So funny you say "exact amount" and then measuring in Kindergarden units xD
When in doubt put more garlic, you can never go wrong by putting more garlic.
An even easier way to remember is to remember that there is no such thing as too much garlic
It's quite literally, doesn't matter.
Measuring by volume 👎🏼 – Measuring by weight 👍🏼.
ew, she uses tablespoon as measurement? I would just weigh the garlic in grams.
Volume is useless, you need weights for acurate measurements, i definitely wouldnt trust any recipes from these people
Love it
I always way garlic.
Sometimes I even weight it
Tablespoon is an exact unit, just like bathtube or football field
But volume isn't consistent for solid ingredients. You could fit a lot more garlic in that spoon. Why won't Americans weigh their dry ingredients?
Neither, double it.
If it matters…. weight matters NOT volume.

The amount of garlic definitely changes the flavor. More is better, never use less.
people, before metric system was invented:
Why use volume over mass?
Love her watching and learning, so calm is her voice it goes into my head straight! ❤❤❤👍👍👍
Love this cook
Why not grams or oz
I never go by individual pieces or volume. It’s either half a head, or a full head and increases by that measure.
there are tens of millions of Italian grandmothers and great grandmothers and so on who strongly disagree
