What it is
Black garlic is regular garlic that has been aged under controlled heat and humidity for several weeks. This process turns the cloves black, gives them a soft, chewy texture, and creates a sweet, balsamic-like flavor with notes of tamarind and molasses.
Why it's used
Manufacturers use black garlic puree as a flavoring ingredient, adding a complex, savory, and slightly sweet taste to foods. It is commonly found in dips and salsas, seasoning mixes, salts, marinades, and salad dressings.
Health notes
Black garlic is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a source of antioxidants, though research on its specific health benefits is ongoing. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated garlic and its derivatives, but specific evaluations for black garlic puree may vary. Evidence regarding unique health effects at typical consumption levels is still developing.
Allergen info
Not a major allergen. Black garlic is derived from garlic, which is not one of the nine FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
