Brilio.net - Garlic is one of the kitchen spices that is widely used as a base spice for various dishes. Garlic can provide a fragrant aroma and add enjoyment to cooking. This spice can be used in sliced form, crushed, or mashed first and then added to cooking.
It's not surprising that some people often stock this kitchen spice in large quantities. The goal is to make it easy when you want to cook impromptu. However, stocking large amounts of garlic is actually quite detrimental. The reason is that if you store it incorrectly, this garlic can rot and become dry. As a result, the onions are just wasted.
Some people then get around this by storing garlic in newspaper. This method is thought to make the garlic last a long time. After wrapping the garlic in newspaper, place it in a cool, dry place.
However, apart from wrapping it in newspaper, apparently there is a method that is no less effective that you can try, you know. This method was shared by one netizen with the Instagram account @mvnnialwi. The account owner admitted that he only relied on a mixture of two kitchen ingredients.
