GARLIC A COMMON HOUSEHOLD HERB
Traditionally and historically garlic is best known for its use in cooking for flavouring stews, pasta sauces etc. Eaten raw this herb strengthens the immune system, but some might say “at a price!” One such person was Thomas Nash, who once said, “Garlick maketh a man wynke, drynke, and stynke.” (First husband of William Shakespeare’s granddaughter Elizabeth Barnard)
