S01E02 -Garlic: The Stinky Rose of Every Kitchen

from She's Always On About Food · host Urmimala Bose

It’s punchy, it’s polarising, and it makes everything better (except your breath). In this episode of She’s Always on About Food…, we take a deep-dive into the magical, myth-filled world of garlic. From vampire repellent to ancient medicine, sacred ingredient to flavour bomb — garlic has been both loved and feared for centuries. We’ll trace its journey across the globe, explore how different cultures use it (yes, even Indian tadkas), and question why some people still avoid it like, well… the plague. It’s not just seasoning — it’s identity.Whether you roast it, smash it, or sneak it into everything — this one’s for the garlic lovers. 🧄✨Track:Music from #InAudio: https://inaudio.org/ MokkaMusic - Fly Away (https://youtu.be/OAPK_KQFIIY?si=oL3g_CT3TOG_Dr7_)"Asian" by Infraction (https://bit.ly/47HTiFP) Music promoted by Inaudio: http://bit.ly/3qxoX6UArabian Gaming Ambient [Eastern Music] by MokkaMusic / Desert Eagle (https://youtu.be/ChDWV4r3-6M?list=PL7pkSK1xbGD5VwmKfDVmijKTMN-JiJFmy)"Pantheon Pulse / Greek music " by Faris Al Orfali (https://youtu.be/hg-FNnmQSR0?list=PLDGqcetPORQ-C09P9byofUbl05qQxC7hy)International Cuisine Music Royalty Free Music from Bensound (https://youtu.be/8dP1YwHN4FA)Aegean Echoes / Greek music (https://youtu.be/MuRG2u3GwmM?list=PLDGqcetPORQ-C09P9byofUbl05qQxC7hy)
