Ingredients
whole garlic cloves peeled and slightly pressed or bruised
1 cup of raw honey or enough to cover the garlic cloves
Instructions
Place the peeled garlic cloves into a wide-mason jar. Add enough honey to completely cover the garlic cloves.
Place the lid on the jar loosely, then tuck into a dark place.
Every day or so, tighten the lid on the jar and flip it upside down to coat the garlic cloves with honey. Loosen the lid again when you return it to the upright position.
Within a week, you should see small bubbles start to form on the surface of the honey.
