We asked you to send us your best garlic recipes, and you delivered. We handed them over to Chester Aaron, garlic farmer extraordinaire, to sift through all those garlic-inspired dishes. Eight pounds of garlic later (seriously), he picked his favorite three.
Then we asked three judges here in DC to pick a winning recipe. Let me introduce our judges:
Chef Carla Hall: competitor on Bravo's Top Chef and the owner of Alchemy Caterers.
Chef Rock Harper: winner of the TV show Hell's Kitchen on Fox and the executive chef at a new restaurant, Ben's Next Door.
And Bonny Wolf: NPR's food essayist and the host of the final round.
We actually have a tub of the winning recipe on our table here at Weekend Edition, and I can confirm that it is one powerful concoction. All three of the top recipes will be on our website tomorrow, so you can be the judge.
Might I suggest you follow the winning dish with a course of breath mints — spearmint, perhaps?
UPDATE: The top three recipes are now posted on the main story page.
