Never Film The First Time

It’s time to store our homegrown garlic stash for the year, so we are cleaning it, weighing it, fake braiding it, and getting it stored. We are also attempting to make a garlic sauce condiment called Toum.

My grandmom would put her garlic up in mason jars with olive… when she opened those jars the aroma would fill the house. We knew something special was about to be cooked when she opened the garlic… miss her everyday, she was 90 years young when she left us

Beautiful Harvest Of Garlic 🧄🧄🧄🥰

[@grim_dave]

You've got yourself on the record saying "we needed to clear our seed bank, we have a baby on the way, we're not too worried about our yield." Getting harvestables on a shot like that is well worth the time and effort. And you'll start fresh with a new seed bank next year.

[@CherylAnderson-qs4iq]

We finally got to see your baby's face! She's so calm, content - and beautiful! Now I'm wishing we'd get to see your other kids faces too! We see them walking around and working with you, which is so nice to see. They're all learning so much from all you do on a daily basis around gardening and growing food. Now I recall that the boys also learned how to weld or something like that too. Do you home school or do they go to public schools? I can see they're caring, observant, involved & intelligent, and good looking, like their parents, but don't know how old they are, or their names. I've been watching your family grow for a few years now and really like when you cook & explain as you go along. I like your down to earth & thoughtful personalities. Oh, almost forgot - when making the whipped up garlic and it seemed more soupy than you'd imagined, I thought if you'd just whip up a few more cloves of garlic, then add it into the mix, you'd be adding some .more substance & texture, if that's what you'd wanted. You could also whip up some chicpeas & add some of that purree for a nice sptead or dip, almost like a humas. I could see adding veggies too, like a sauteed cauliflower, some artichoke or maybe some kind of a lightly cooked green, maybe a raw or lightly sauteed kale. How nice to have earned all those heads of garlic, onions & more with a bit of good-for-you work by the whole family, outside.Are you planning a fall harvest? You are in a warm climate, so have a longer growing season than I do, but I forgot what state you're in. 🌻

I planted hot mustard all around everywhere as a cover crop and to deter root worms... It has worked so far

[@MynewTennesseeHome]

I usually buy a 1/2 lb bag at the feed store. It's sold as a cover crop. If you ever let it go to seed, you'll have it forever. Most seed companies also sell a red Asian (spicy) mustard that reseeds well.

Elephant garlic has a 3 year lifespan….the small cloves turn into big cloves, the big cloves will grow into a huge head, and then they split and produce the baby cloves again… keep planting. Also, it’s actually part of the leek family and when dried, makes a great garlic powder.

Hey guys, that is the onion fly maggot. We’ve battled it for years in PA. This year we sprayed spinosad preventively every week and we had a fantastic harvest. Previous years, the onion fly wiped out our entire onion crop and damaged our garlic. Wiped out our leeks as well. Spinosad is key.

Hello Hollar family. I so enjoy watching your videos. Your family life is very inspiring and the content is very entertaining, for lack of a better word. Love all your children. The girls are sooo precious, and the boys/brothers seem to think so too. Just wanted to say I love Corbin's haircut. Looks so much cooler for the hot humid summer. Also, after watching a video of yours on making garlic scape pesto, I for the first time made some of my own. I saw the scapes at a farmer's market and picked them up. Just this evening for dinner I used it to make a garlic scapes pesto pizza on the grill using naan bread. Soooo good. Enjoy the rest of your summer!

My garlic was full of worms last year. This year I moved the bed , but it was so wet this spring that the Music garlic never even got scapes and the Susanville just rotted in the ground. The elephant garlic got rust but did produce so very large cloves. Some years things just don’t produce well. 🤷‍♀️every year is different. You did good.

[@flyonthewall28]

For a fluffy toum it’s best to remove the germ from the clove and add lemon juice and oil gradually. If it breaks take a small amount in the processor add an egg white and start whipping and then gradually pour back the liquid garlic which has been removed. 😊

[@dkaysette]

I removed the germ and did it exactly like this and my last batch failed just like Meg's. I've ALWAYS had perfect success with toum before this last time. One time in the past it broke for me and the egg white trick worked perfectly but this last time, even that didn't work. Any other ideas as to what could have been different? Also, I have tiny hole in my food processor so I can pour the oil in and it gradually and slowly drips the oil in and it didn't work for the first time ever. :(

[@thelittlebrownranch9105]

This is helpful info. I knew adding ice water into the mix was wrong. I suspect that was misunderstood and it should have been to create an ice water bath for the bowl where mixing is occurring.

[@mtmuzicman]

Hi guys! I love watching your story! I love making taum and have a couple suggestions for you. It’s more like making mayo than hummus and sometimes I even use it instead of mayo. I find it best using a mason jar and an immersion blender. For that size, start with 1 cup of peeled garlic, amounts of salt, lemon juice, and oil can vary depending on the texture you want. I usually have the garlic, 1teaspoon salt, 1/4 cup lemon juice in the jar and zip it with the blender til smooth. Leave the blender at the bottom (not running) while you add 2 cups of neutral-tasting oil. Once in, start the blender and slowly, slowly raise it up the jar as it emulsifies underneath. That makes a thick, dip-like, mayo-like consistency that mostly fills the mason jar. For a thinner, sauce-like consistency, use up to 1/2 cup lemon juice and up to 3 cups oil (and up to 2tsps salt), but you’ll probably need a bigger container. Good luck!

[@kathrynblodgett1969]

As you were finishing with the garlic "sauce" and thinking of what you could use it for, first thing I thought of was garlic butter. Soften some butter and whip that in. Just the idea made me hungry. Lol

Sometimes if you plant really small elephant garlic cloves or it doens't get cold enough during the winter , or some other unknown reason, elephant garlic will produce a round but if you plant it, it should produce cloves the following year.

[@andy38andrews96]

You are correct. And if you plant the little brown bulblets, they will make a round bulb the first year. The second year they will split into cloves. Around 70 years experience here growing elephant garlic.

We use sunflower oil for toum. Avocado turns it ever so slightly green and it didn't emulsify as much. When it works, it's like garlic mayo. Keep trying, it's well worth it.

I peel and freeze whole cloves. Great for adding to anything that you are cooking.

[@NoOneUKnow-c3y]

I infuse some of my garlic with honey for a cough syrup and immune booster. I just leave it on the counter and burp the jar every once in a while for about 2 weeks. Then it lasts for about a year, but I will usually use it up before that. This is my very first year of harvesting home grown, so I am rather excited to get to experiment with other options too. Thanks for the great ideas. See you on the next one.

It’s weird to be a grandma already, I still don’t feel I’ve mastered the mom role yet.😂 But I guess we all learn as we go along. My daughter wants me to stay with her for the first month, at least, she said she’d prefer if I stayed for the first year😂😂 I’ve told them they can move back home and we can make the top floor of the house it’s own Appartement, but she don’t want that. I understand that too. She lives 150 yards from her work , where she is a manager. So she can easily run down there if needed , even when she’s off. Her boyfriend work is 400 yards, so it’s very central and all of the shops and conveniences is just out the door . They are nesting so bad now, the whole flat has gotten a makeover and the nursery is beatiful❤ Still, it’s really weird to see my baby with a baby belly. I feel she just became a teenager😢 I actually felt the baby kick for the first time on Friday, so it really is happening . it got me all teared up🥹

[@kellydyer5844]

Hi there! I’ve made Toum before and it’s delicious! The trick is to get the garlic, salt, lemon juice and the ice water processed in the food processor really well. And while the processor is still on, pour in your oil slowly to emulsify. Here’s a helpful trick….place your processor ‘tube/cylinder’ in the processor/lid and there is a small hole in the bottom of said ‘tube/cylinder’ which you can pour your oil into and it will drizzle a steady and slow stream of oil for you so you don’t have to stand there and hand pour a slow steady stream yourself! The tube will only hold maybe 1/2-1 cup of liquid at a time but that may vary depending on what appliance you have. Toum is a Lebanese Garlic Sauce if you want to search for more info on a how to but it’s delicious and was so stoked to see you guys trying it! Love your vlogs!❤
