Ok, I just looked it up. The only way I'd considering doing it is with an Instant Pot, as I don't have a rice cooker, and my slow cooker doesn't have a "warm" setting, just high and low, which I guess is too warm.

So, has anyone made black garlic successfully in an Instant Pot or other pressure cooker?

Never heard of Black Garlic? Sourdough Multigrain Seeded

I dehydrated a new batch of starter last weekend so I am ready to give more out!

Apparently the old Oregon sourdough starter was trending on social media recently. It makes sense because it is very good starter!

Ron, I KNOW IT IS AN EXCELLENT SOURDOUGH STARTER. All
I bake is ONLY with your sourdough starter. NEVER FAILED. I
have two jars....since I bake weekly. Family, Friends, and ME.

I was watching Youtube gardening videos last year and remember one where they made black garlic using the heat from a compost pile. I think they wrapped the garlic in foil and buried it near the top of the pile. I guess the long term 150 degree or so environment was just right for the process.

Here are a couple videos where the guy puts the garlic in jars that go in the compost pile.

My compost doesn't get that hot. What I read was it needs a loooong time, like 4 weeks (!) at 140-150 degrees.

Not bad for my first attempt at making pasta. 9 1/2 feet long, and that is not an exaggeration.

I guess I can cut it into 2 foot strips, then freeze it to make ravioli later.
