How to freeze garlic
1. Low temperature guarantee, low temperature will cause the garlic to break dormancy and activate alliinase.
2. If you want to turn green quickly, you can add white vinegar (the effect is better)
The function of white vinegar is to increase the permeability of the cell membrane without damaging the cell wall. It accelerates the greening of garlic and tastes better; of course, if you make sweet and sour garlic, too much sugar, too little vinegar, or it is not sealed and exposed to light will cause the garlic to turn green, but the taste is very different.
Therefore, white vinegar, sealed and protected from light, with a little sugar, can make frozen garlic with good taste and good color. Come and try "frozen green garlic", which is the name of a kind of garlic soaked in vinegar in your hometown. In winter, every household will choose new garlic, carrots, cabbage and celery and soak them in vinegar to make this little cold dish. Especially during the Spring Festival, when we eat too much greasy food, a plate of frozen green garlic placed on the dining table becomes a popular dish. Not greasy, not greasy, and full of crispiness. Moreover, garlic soaked in vinegar can relieve heat and cold, prevent colds, and has the effect of strengthening the body. However, this dish should not be stored for more than two months.
Because the ingredients for the green garlic were not complete this time, celery was not included. Except for the lack of celery's turquoise color, the taste has no impact at all. I made a big bottle and almost finished it before I thought of posting the recipe, haha~~

Tips
White vinegar can be replaced with other vinegars, but some people think that the color of frozen green garlic made with white vinegar is better.
In addition to cabbage, green onions and carrots, you can also add celery stalks, cut into strips, and put them in together with the cabbage and carrots.
When taking out side dishes, the utensils (chopsticks) used must be clean and oil-free, because the vegetables in the bottle will spoil quickly if they are stained with oil.
