About Dientes de ajo
Dientes de Ajo, or garlic cloves, are a versatile ingredient commonly found in cuisines worldwide, from Mediterranean and Asian dishes to Latin American recipes. Native to Central Asia, garlic has been cultivated for thousands of years and is prized for its bold flavor and medicinal properties. Rich in nutrients, it contains vitamins B6 and C, manganese, selenium, and antioxidants. Garlic is celebrated for its potential health benefits, including supporting heart health, boosting immunity, and reducing inflammation due to the presence of allicin, a sulfur compound activated when garlic is crushed or chopped. While garlic is low in calories and fat, its strong taste means it’s often paired with butter, oil, or salt in recipes, which can add extra calories and sodium. Used in moderation, garlic cloves can enhance the flavor profile of dishes while contributing positively to a balanced diet.
