Re: Where do you keep your garlic?

I keep my onions in a green bag in the crisper.

I keep my heads of garlic in a mesh bag in a drawer in the kitchen together with my good knives and my garlic smusher.

I have a basket on the kitchen counter...I keep both my onions and garlic in there. however, if the onions aren't super fresh I put them in the vegetable drawer in the fridge.

Onions last forever in the fridge - I usually don't have space so I keep them in a little basket thing (like they sell at dollar stores) in a cabinet.

I have a little garlic keeper from BBB - its terra cotta. If I have too much to fit in there, I put the extra with onions.

I keep my taters with the onions too.

Re: Where do you keep your garlic?

i have one of those garlic holders that look like a giant plastic garlic. Mark Bittman actually says not to put garlic in the fridge and apparently my garlic is supposed to keep for months.

Re: Where do you keep your garlic?

I keep it on a little shelf above my sink, in this little dish thingy. I don't keep it in the fridge because from experience, I've found that it loses its potency when it gets refrigerated.

Eta...as far as onions, I can't help ya...I skeeve the texture of 'em and only buy what I need for the dish I'm making. And then I puck them all out. Ah, food issues. LOL

We keep it in a little terracotta container on the counter. I think someone gave it to me for my shower.

Onions go in my vegetable drawer in the fridge.

Re: Where do you keep your garlic?

Both in a basket on my counter. I find that storing garlic in the fridge makes them taste different.
