Young onions pulled before the bulb has fully formed, so they're sweeter and milder than a mature onion. The whole plant is useful: slice the tender bulbs raw into salads and salsas, and use the green tops like a spring onion. They're also excellent halved and charred on the barbecue.
One our regions primary crops, garlic is universally recognised as a potent medicinal plant, most commonly used to prevent and reduce the severity of the flu and common cold. Low in calories and very rich in Vitamin C, Vitamin B6 and Manganese. High doses of garlic appear to improve blood pressure and contains antioxidants that protect against cell damage and ageing.
