American Garlic Recipes

American cooking is a melting pot of comfort food — from slow-smoked barbecue to skillet classics, big on bold, crowd-pleasing flavour. When American cooks work with garlic, they reach for butter, smoked paprika, brown sugar, mustard, hot sauce and good stock, and the techniques that come up most across these recipes are simmering, boiling, frying and baking.

The aromatic foundation of savoury cooking almost everywhere — pungent raw, sweet and mellow when cooked. In this collection it's most often cooked with smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, all-purpose flour, unsalted butter, olive oil and celery. The dishes here span american classics ready in as little as 10 minutes to slower, more involved cooking that rewards a relaxed afternoon.
