Do you know black garlic? Many people may have heard that they have heard but not eaten.

Speaking of garlic, while there is a good image that looks good for health, there is also a negative image that there is a unique smell. However, black garlic is good for health and it does not care about its unique odor. So, this time, I will introduce the reasons why black garlic does not smell.

□ With black garlic

Black garlic is ordinary white garlic aged in high temperature and humidity for 3 to 4 weeks. In other words, it is originally a normal white garlic.

Garlic originally contains amino acids and carbohydrates, but when these ingredients are matured, the content of amino acids and polyphenols in garlic is increased compared to normal garlic.

Therefore, it is characterized by being sweet and easy to eat. In addition, there is also a function that enhances the immune system because the antioxidative action is strengthened. Black garlic is a good food to stay healthy.

□ The reason why you do not smell

Black garlic does not smell because allicin, which is the odor component, changes to other substances.

The origin of the smell of raw garlic is a component called allicin. Allicin, which is the source of allicin, is also found in garlic and other onion and long green onion flavored vegetables, and is a type of sulfur-containing amino acid. As long as the allicin remains in the garlic, a strong smell is emitted.

By the way, as a measure against odor, have you ever heard that it would be better to bake or fry and eat instead of crushing or cutting garlic? As a matter of fact, allicin, when it is heated, damaged, or aged, becomes attached to other substances or changes itself, making it difficult for it to smell.

Likewise, aging and fermenting like black garlic will dilute the function as allicin. In aged black garlic, allicin is almost nonexistent, and the distinctive smell of garlic is lost. Also, since the substance after Allicin changes its form is a stable component that is resistant to heat and irritation, it can be said that black garlic does not care about its odor.

□ Finally

Black garlic is a nutritious food that doesn’t bother the smell. We also recommend eating black garlic for your health. If you are interested in black garlic, please feel free to contact Okazaki.
