Learn about Garlic and Garlic festivals in Ontario
Manage episode 435324617 series 3210426
Want to learn more about garlic? How to grow it? How to cook with it? How to enjoy it? Yes, even where to get garlic ice cream (the answer is at the Ukrainian Centre in Sudbury).
My guest in this episode of QOL is Peter McClusky, author of Ontario Garlic: The Story from Farm to Festival. Peter shares garlic's history - starting in central Asia - how it was shunned and now embraced. While Sudbury has its festival at the end of August, Toronto holds it celebration of all things garlic on Sunday September 29th. Visit their website www.torontogarlicfestival.ca for a full list of vendors, participating restaurants... Attend and try garlic desserts, garlic beer, and even expert advice on "... how to keep vampires at bay."
