Help! My lid is stuck!?

It happens! Once opened and utilized, chopped or minced garlic, while not considered an adhesive, can certainly act like one. We used continuous-thread lids for freshness, however they have a tendency to stick. To loosen a stuck lid, try runny the jar under hot water for a minute or two, then use a rubber glove/mitt or a grippy kitchen cloth for better traction.

How much Garliki should I use??

The general conversion 1 teaspoon of Garliki is equal to 1.5 cloves of garlic. However, we have found many of our users utilize closer to a 1 to 1 ratio given the rounded flavor of the garlic (and because it's just so darned tasty).

Can I eat Garliki raw?

Our Fermented Garlic Cooking Paste is made using a spontaneous fermentation process that not only enhances the flavors but also reduces the pungency of raw garlic, making it suitable for consumption without cooking. However, please note that while Garliki is safe for raw consumption, it's always a good idea to consult with a healthcare professional, especially if you have any existing health concerns or conditions. We recommend incorporating Garliki into your favorite dishes, sauces, dressings, and marinades to add a delicious and nutritious garlic flavor to your meals.

Does Garliki need to be refrigerated?

Yes, we recommend Garliki to be refrigerated after opening to ensure that it stays fresh and delicious for all your culinary needs.

It says "fermented" - does that mean Garliki has alcohol?

When in the cooking process should I add Garliki
