1-\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Buy fresh Quebec garlic in season<\/strong>: In addition to being more flavourful, juicy and exquisitely crisp, fresh garlic doesn’t have its germ! (Buy it directly from our\u00a0our online store<\/a>\u00a0as of early August.)<\/p>\n 2-\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Buy garlic directly from producers<\/strong>: Garlic bought directly from producers has never been stored in cold rooms, which cause the cloves to germinate early. (The producer: that\u2019s us!)<\/p>\n 3-\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Buy garlic from an experienced producer<\/strong>: The way garlic is dried is critical for ensuring that it will keep well throughout the year. Experienced producers know how to process garlic at each of the different steps of production to ensure the quality of the bulbs. (Le Petit Mas has 25 years of experience!)<\/p>\n 4-\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Buy a garlic variety that naturally stores well<\/strong>: Garlic varieties do not all have the same shelf life. The Music variety we grow naturally keeps well (it will keep from one harvest to the next), while other varieties have a shorter shelf life.\u00a0(The Music variety is the one we sell!)<\/p>\n 5- Follow your producer\u2019s advice on how to store garlic<\/strong>: Ultimately, if you buy our garlic, keep it handy on your kitchen counter or in your cupboard at room temperature (around 20\u00b0C). Since our garlic has not undergone a dormancy period (which happens when it is kept in the cold), its biological clock has stopped. The germ will grow very slowly inside the bulbs and won\u2019t come out for several months\u2014or even not at all\u2014before the next harvest.<\/p>\n Order your Quebec garlic as of early August\u00a0<\/a>and enjoy it throughout the year!<\/p>\n While waiting for the next harvest, try our fermented garlic flowers<\/a>,\u00a0available year-round in stores<\/a>. Once opened, the jar keeps in the fridge for over two years!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" 1-\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Buy fresh Quebec garlic in season: In addition to being more flavourful, juicy and exquisitely crisp, fresh garlic doesn’t have its germ!
