Garlic has antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, and it has been widely used in folk remedies since ancient times. Interestingly, its effectiveness was even recognized in Western vampire folklore, where garlic appears as a tool to ward off evil spirits.
Modern medicine has also proven that allicin, a compound found in garlic, helps prevent cardiovascular disease. With the globalization of K-food, Korean garlic cooking methods are gaining significant attention overseas, and garlic scapes and black garlic, in particular, are being exported as health foods.
