sallykate 6 Jan 11:32am, 6 Jan 2024 13,014 posts	0 sallykate I think I used to get jars of minced garlic and ginger from shops selling Indian spices. Good for when I wanted to make a big batch of a curry sauce.
Sharkie 6 Jan 12:20pm, 6 Jan 2024 22,291 posts	0 Sharkie Garlic bulbs are pretty much like onions - you wouldn't keep those in the fridge would you, Pix? I can't imagine not using enough garlic to warrant buying fresh. A three bulb string is my usual - and there are only two of us.
EvilPixie 6 Jan 12:22pm, 6 Jan 2024 50,505 posts	0 EvilPixie It's years since I bought fresh tbh We grow onions and I was thinking grow garlic! Which would mean I'd have lots which was enough reason why I thought of this
Sharkie 6 Jan 12:22pm, 6 Jan 2024 22,292 posts	0 Sharkie Agree with Sally though - and if you don't have any Indian shops then the world food sections in the big supermarkets often have much better value spices and other ingredients than those little jars.

Hanneke 6 Jan 12:37pm, 6 Jan 2024 117,445 posts	0 Hanneke I buy my spices bulk on line. I use half a tiny pot a day, so ditched those long ago and grow my own garlic. I use at least a bulb a week. I will have a look to see what garlic offerings they have of the "lazy" variety and feed back.
Fizz :-) 6 Jan 12:41pm, 6 Jan 2024 8,608 posts	0 Fizz :-) I keep onions and garlic and potatoes in the fridge.
Little Miss Happy 6 Jan 12:43pm, 6 Jan 2024 6,833 posts	0 Little Miss Happy I split the garlic into cloves, peel and freeze then use straight from frozen.
alpenrose 6 Jan 12:47pm, 6 Jan 2024 62,160 posts	0 alpenrose I used to buy garlic salt but it always went solid on me before I could use it. These days I buy organic garlic in Sainsbury's and it usually lasts me for months in the cupboard where I keep onions and potatoes.
