Black Garlic is trending on menus and while it’s usually associated with savory dishes, there have been some incredibly creative applications recently that make fermented garlic the focal point instead of an added bonus.
The ingredient adds a unique depth of flavor and can be seen on all sections of menus, including cocktails. Check out the recipe for the Heart of Glass cocktail from Kwei Fei in Charleston, South Carolina.
“Sichuan cuisine is salty, sweet, bitter, acidic, pungent, nutty, and spicy. This cocktail brings you back down to earth using Reishi which comes from Sichuan and is known to locals as Ganoderma Lingzhi. This concoction is the perfect detox and retox at the same time.” — Tina Schuttenberg, Co-Owner of Kwei Fei
Preparation
- Shake and double-strain into a coupe glass.
- Garnish with Black Garlic & MSG caviar*.
Additional Notes
*Tina Schuttenberg fills house-made caviar pearls with black garlic and MSG as a garnish for her Heart of Glass cocktail.
