  • Combine peeled garlic cloves and transfer to fridge. Let it pickle for at least 14 days before enjoying but I recommend waiting for 21 days or more for best flavors. Pickles should hold in the fridge for at least 8-12 weeks, if not longer. Note - I recommend cutting the garlic cloves in halves to quicken the pickling process.
