Much less of a hassle to peel and use than regular old garlic, would recommend

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solo_garlic

Solo garlic is believed to have originated in Yunnan, China, a mountainous area. The product is known as 独子蒜 “only-child garlic”

Thank you China :rat-salute-2:

spoiler

独子蒜

Oh hey, that first character is the same as in the Japanese word 独身, dokushin, meaning single (as in not in a relationship)

Aren’t Chinese characters magical :soypoint-1:

I was also suspicious of this newfangled garlic but it was completely unfounded

I say newfangled despite this stuff having been around for thousands of years
