Did you know that the way you chop your garlic affects the taste and flavour of your food?

Recently, Chef Kunal Kapur shared a reel on Instagram where he mentioned how chopping garlic determines the taste level of garlic in the food.

Adding whole garlic to your dish will give you a weak flavour; crushed garlic gives a mild flavour; sliced ones give a medium flavour; chopped provides a strong flavour, and the paste gives the strongest flavour.

So, next time when you cook decide which flavour you want in your dish.
