Australian garlic is usually the Italian variety of garlic. Also commonly available in Australia are imported Chinese, Spanish and Mexican garlic, peeled garlic cloves are imported from Asia. Do not store uncooked garlic in the freezer or the refrigerator. Refrigeration encourages the growth of mould and freezing destroys the texture of garlic and results in an acrid flavour. Never store raw garlic in oil at room temperature; this can lead to botulism, a potentially lethal form of food poisoning. Australian garlic is available from spring to the end of summer. Imported garlic is available all year round.
