How to make honey with garlic
Step 1: Prepare the garlic
Peel the garlic cloves carefully. You can leave small cloves whole, but larger cloves can be lightly crushed or cut in half. This helps release more flavor into the honey. Do not mince the garlic too finely, because whole or halved cloves keep better in the jar and are easier to use later.
Step 2: Sterilize the jar
Wash the glass jar and lid well with hot water and soap. Rinse thoroughly and let it dry completely. A clean, dry jar is important for keeping the mixture fresh.
Step 3: Fill the jar
Place the peeled garlic cloves into the jar. Do not pack them too tightly. Leave a little space so the honey can flow around them.
Step 4: Add the honey
Pour the honey slowly over the garlic until all the cloves are completely covered. Use a spoon to press the garlic gently if needed, helping remove trapped air bubbles. Make sure no garlic is sticking out above the honey.
Step 5: Close and rest
