KOREAN RED
- A rich yet mellow Asiatic Garlic.
- Harvests VERY early in season - stores about 5-6 months.
Asiatic garlics typically have six to eight cloves per bulb in a circular configuration around a central scape. They're generally large bulbs with fat cloves. The bulb wrappers are firm, tight and vivid with broad, bold purple stripes merging into areas of solid purple. A very strongly colored garlic. The clove covers are silky and a lovely golden tan with a rosy aura and tiny pink veins. It is one of the very first cultivars planted in the fall and the first harvested in the spring around here. The taste puts it in a class almost by itself.
This Asiatic Hardneck is very popular in Korea and is the secret ingredient for some award-winning Kimchi! Known for its heat, Korean Red is a great choice for those who like spicy garlic with full flavor. 7-10 cloves per bulb and stores up to 6 months.
