I usually just change “cloves” to “heads” and then the recipe is about right.

Lol yeah. Any recipe that calls for a clove or two may as well not have any garlic.

I have never heard “whoa, there’s too much garlic in this”.

I have. Once.

A friend of mine added all the garlic he had into a sauce.

The whole place was garliccy for a few days and the sauce was like liquid garlic…

It was bad. But it was way too much

Some just don’t like garlic or onions. My wife is like that. She will eat live octopus and goat’s brains or other more adventurous stuff but just don’t like garlic or onions. Sometimes I’ve tried to hide it in the food but she notices it. Oh well

I over spice everything, garlic included, but:

I had a girlfriend that misread a recipe and made a pot of gazpacho with four whole heads of garlic instead of four segments. It was quite spicy, but I loved her and ate it anyway.

No matter how much I showered and brushed my teeth I stank of garlic for the next couple days.

It was tasty, though.

Nah, I put too much garlic into Hummus the first time I made it.

There’s definitely such a thing as too much garlic. At least RAW garlic. It was nearly inedible and I quite like garlic.

Yeah raw garlic is rough. I usually roast it when making hummus. But even then, I found powdered garlic to be the best tasting. And I can never add enough roasted or powdered garlic.
