Garlic Introduction: Garlic is the underground bulb of the Allium species of the Liliaceae family. The whole garlic plant has a strong and spicy garlic smell. The garlic head, garlic leaves and flower sprouts can be eaten as vegetables. They can not only be used as seasonings, but also can be used as medicine. It is a famous plant with dual uses of food and medicine.

Efficacy of garlic: Garlic has various biological activities, such as preventing and treating cardiovascular diseases, anti-tumor and anti-pathogenic microorganisms. Long-term consumption can play a role in disease prevention and health care.

How to store garlic? In addition to placing garlic in a dry and ventilated place, you can also store it by frying golden garlic. The method is to wash the garlic, remove it from the outer mold, and put it in hot water. Fry in oil until golden brown. After the oil drips away, wrap it in a preservative mold and put it in the refrigerator, so it can be stored for a long time.

Suitable storage temperature for garlic. Suitable storage temperature range for garlic: 0.6-0℃ or 30-34℃. Low temperature storage: Garlic should be dried before storage. If not dried, the garlic will rot due to excessive humidity.

How long can garlic be stored without going bad? Garlic can generally be stored for 7 months without going bad. However, if it begins to sprout after 7 months, it cannot be eaten.

Can garlic be stored in the refrigerator? Garlic can be stored in the refrigerator. If you put it in the refrigerator when the weather is hot, it can prevent garlic from growing sprouts, but it must be closed well, otherwise it will smell.

How to store garlic for a long time without a refrigerator? Put the garlic into a plastic bag and seal the bag. The carbon dioxide gas exhaled by the garlic sealed in the bag cannot be emitted, which increases the concentration of carbon dioxide in the bag and relatively reduces the oxygen content. At the same time, it lacks water absorption, and the garlic will be in a dormant state.

Garlic storage methods 1. Low-temperature storage: Garlic should be dried before storage. If not dried, the garlic will rot due to excessive humidity. Garlic should generally be stored in a vegetable cellar or house with a temperature of 0.6-0°C and a relative air humidity of 65%-70% that is ventilated, dry, and smoke-free. This method can be stored for 6-7 months.

2. High-temperature storage: After experiencing a low-temperature dormancy stage, garlic will germinate rapidly at 5-18°C. If the harvested garlic is stored in a high-temperature environment of 30-34°C, it can stay fresh for more than one year.

3. Storage humidity: Under relative humidity conditions of 40%-50%, it can also inhibit the respiratory metabolism of garlic and delay germination. Low oxygen and high carbon dioxide can also inhibit garlic respiration and germination.
