Garlic

Garlic is a type of Allium that is popular in many cuisines. It has a pungent and distinctive flavor that can be used to add flavor to food. Garlic pairs well with other Alliums, such as onions and shallots. It can also be paired with meats, such as chicken, beef, and pork. Garlic also pairs well with vegetables, such as broccoli, cauliflower, and Brussels sprouts.
