Your garlic won't be 100% fresh, but you will have an infused oil.

I plant it as it shoots. I also use the green tops from early planted garlic in cooking. I have an abundance of the stuff as I just LOVE it. Fried rice with fried garlic plus handfuls of chopped garlic tops , and a bit of rocket just for variety,and chilli for breakfast is great! I would also like to find a way to encourage the garlic to keep for longer. I miss roasted garlic for the other 6 months of the year. I am going to try drying it next year. I have heard that this gives the closest flavour to fresh garlic. I will try this using the food dehydrator. I think I should have enough. I have about 2000 plants in, so this should just about keep me going.

The cloves will dry & remain usable for over a year (at least mine are still good...)
