Garlic Gulch Days in Progress!

Anyone in the family get a cold yet? Ward off the cold and flu with some garlic at Mitchelli's! Besides with All Hollows Eve just ahead it might stave off the vampires and goblins of the night! The medicinal qualities abound in this tiny morsel - even the Egyptians noted 22 medicinal applications for the smelly bulb in their Codex Ebers. In 1858 Louis Pasteur realized it could kill bacteria. In 1983, biochemist Sidney Belman reported that by painting the skin of laboratory mice with garlic oil, he could inhibit the development of skin cancers.

Garlic subtle? No way! Subtlety is not garlic’s long suit. How such a small, delicate-looking package can pack such a wallop is a wonder. So, even if you think garlic isn’t one of your passions, and the amount of garlic called for in some recipes alarm you, go ahead and give ours a whirl - you are in for some delicious surprises! Our culinarians have created dishes for every palette. Try them out and see what suits yours best.

“There is no such thing as too much garlic” -T. McQuaid
