Yesterday, I made bread dough and a batch of blueberry cupcakes.

Today, I baked both loaves of bread, made the blueberry frosting, and frosted the cupcakes that made it to today (5 out of 12 fell victim to those of us who can't resist sweets).

I wasn't going to bake today but y'all are motivating me! So ... blueberry scones coming up! Hopefully. If my blueberries are still good. If not, I have frozen strawberries!

Jared, in some dishes you just want the flavor of the garlic, which is savory and delightful. So you crush or mince it to get the oils.*Rarely do you want a whole clove of garlic in your mouth! Sometimes you don't mind getting a LITTLE more than just the oils, so you chop it fine. A good example is if you add it to hot oil to flavor the oil so it cooks a little along with chopped onion for example to flavor meat. Careful not to crisp it or blacken it, though, that makes it bitter. You can bury whole cloves in the fat cap of a roast before baking.

*ETA Example, soups.

I use whole cloves in my pickles. I have not tried the ones in my Hot Sweet pickles but the ones that I use in my Hot Dill pickles come out nice and crunchy and tasting exactly like a dill pickle. Of course the jalapeños in the Hot Dill pickles also come out tasting just like a dill pickle too.

20 minutes to go before I lop off the heel of my fresh loaf of GF bread and slather on the butter and apple butter! If you show up, you can have a slice!
