🧄 What Is Burning Garlic?
Burning garlic typically involves placing peeled garlic cloves on a small heat source like a pan, burner, or even charcoal and allowing them to char or smolder gently. This releases a strong, smoky, sulfur-rich aroma that fills the room — and this process can have interesting effects on your body and environment.
