Tips for Cooking with Garlic on a Low Carb Diet

Garlic is naturally low in carbs-one clove has about 1 gram of carbs-so it's a perfect flavor booster for keto and low-carb meals. To maximize its impact, use fresh garlic cloves rather than pre-minced or powdered versions, as they offer a more pungent, aromatic flavor. Sauté garlic briefly in oil or butter before adding other ingredients to release its essential oils, but be careful not to burn it, as burnt garlic turns bitter. For a milder taste, roast whole garlic cloves until soft and spreadable; this adds a sweet, nutty flavor to meats and vegetables. You can also infuse oils or butters with garlic to drizzle over finished dishes.
