Black Garlic Stir Fry Shrimp

Submitted by Denise on Sunday, 17 May 2009



Aged Black Garlic was first thought of as a dietary supplement or a “superfood”; it has only become the hottest culinary addition in professional chef and home-chef kitchens recently.  It is slightly sweet like molasses with a hint of fresh garlic. It’s texture is slightly chewy and gooey, which adds a nice depth to a stir fry sauce.

Remember the package David of Earthy Delights sent us?  It is the package that keeps giving!  Every time, I start to use something new, I just smile, as it is always so much fun.  This time was no exception.  David, was so kind to include this culinary must have, Aged Black Garlic.  I thought it would go really well with a simple stir fry of shrimp with rice noodles (gluten free).  The depth and the sweetness of the garlic added a very intense flavor to the dish, almost syurpy.  For veggies I used what was on hand, celery, carrots and green onions and I only cooked them until they were slightly warmed though and still crunchy.  The noodles added a nice silky texture to tie the dish together.

Recipe:  Aged Black Garlic Stir Fry Shrimp

1 lb peeled and devined shrimp
4 celery ribs, sliced thinly at a slant
4 green onions, sliced thinly at a slant
2 carrots, sliced thinly at a slant
1 head of aged black garlic, peeled and sliced thinly
1/4 cup canola oil
1 package rice noodles, soak for 8 – 10 minutes, drain well
1/8 cup sesame oil
4 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon fresh ginger, minced
Make sauce, by combining sesame oil, soy sauce, sugar, and ginger, stir and set aside.  Heat 1/2 of the oil in a wok or deep dish saucepan until very hot, add shrimp, cook until pink, about 5 minutes.  Remove from heat and set aside.  Add rest of the oil, garlic, onions, celery and carrots and stir fry for about 10 minutes, until warmed but still crispy.  Remove from heat and set aside.   Add noodles to the pan and stir fry for about 3 minutes, add sauce, veggies and shrimp and warm for about 3 minutes.  Serve.  Eat.

Aged garlic extract lowers blood pressure in patients with treated but uncontrolled hypertension: A randomised controlled trial

http://www.maturitas.org/article/S0378-5122(10)00227-6/abstract
Volume 67, Issue 2, Pages 144-150 (October 2010)

Discipline of General Practice, School of Population Health and Clinical Practice, The University of Adelaide, Adelaide, South Australia 5005, Australia

Abstract
Objective - To assess the effect, tolerability and acceptability of aged garlic extract as an adjunct treatment to existing antihypertensive medication in patients with treated, but uncontrolled, hypertension.

Design - A double-blind parallel randomised placebo-controlled trial involving 50 patients whose routine clinical records in general practice documented treated but uncontrolled hypertension. The active treatment group received four capsules of aged garlic extract (960mg containing 2.4mg S-allylcysteine) daily for 12 weeks, and the control group received matching placebos. The primary outcome measures were systolic and diastolic blood pressure at baseline, 4, 8 and 12 weeks, and change over time. We also assessed tolerability during the trial and acceptability at 12 weeks.

Results - In patients with uncontrolled hypertension (SBP≥140mmHg at baseline), systolic blood pressure was on average 10.2±4.3mmHg (p=0.03) lower in the garlic group compared with controls over the 12-week treatment period. Changes in blood pressure between the groups were not significant in patients with SBP<140mmHg at baseline. Aged garlic extract was generally well tolerated and acceptability of trial treatment was high (92%).

Conclusion - Our trial suggests that aged garlic extract is superior to placebo in lowering systolic blood pressure similarly to current first line medications in patients with treated but uncontrolled hypertension.

Increased Anti-oxidative Potency of Garlic by Spontaneous Short-term Fermentation

Abstract 
Fundamental anti-oxidative properties of 80% ethanol extract fromgarlic fermented for the relatively short period of time (40 days at 60–70◦C, 85–95% relative humidity) were examined. Superoxide dismutase(SOD)-like activity, scavenging activity against hydrogen peroxide and the polyphenol content of the garlic extractwere increased 13-folds,more than 10-folds, and 7-folds, respectively, as compared with those of the control
garlic extract. The results indicate that relatively short-term spontaneous fermentation potentiates anti-oxidative properties of garlic in fresh form, which is, at least in part, attributable to the increased level of polyphenols.Since superoxide is the primary upstream radical of the chain reaction with reactive oxygen species and hydrogen peroxide is generated from the scavenging reaction by SOD, the fermented- garlic is suggested to possess desirable anti-oxidative properties.

Black Garlic versus Raw Garlic

Garlic has long been used in food dishes and supplements for its health benefits. But, now there is a new kid on the block that is challenging garlic lovers to a new taste. We are talking about black garlic.

What is black garlic? In essence, it is a type of garlic that is black. Black garlic is aged raw garlic that has gone through a fermentation process. Some trendy restaurants have introduced it to our taste buds and it has met with rave reviews.

What is the difference between black garlic and raw garlic? Raw garlic is the type that most people are used to. It comes in a bulb that contains several cloves. They are off white in color and have a pungent odor.

Raw garlic is great pressed as a marinade for steak or an addition to soups and stews. It adds a piquant taste that enhances our food without the need for salt which can raise blood pressure.

Garlic supplements are taken to lower cholesterol. That is bad cholesterol we are talking about here. Unfortunately, eating a lot of garlic can result in the smell being excreted through your pores. While you will be healthier, those around you won’t like the smell very much.

Garlic is also good for the heart. It helps lower blood pressure, stops harmful arterial plaques from forming and may lower the risk of future heart attacks in heart patients.

So, what about black garlic? It has some of the smell of garlic. Some describe it as sweet and sour at the same time.

One thing that black garlic does not have, however, is the odor of garlic. You won’t smell it through your pores or on your breath. The texture is different, too. Where raw garlic is firm and smooth, black garlic is soft like jelly or a kid’s fruit snack treat.

They can be eaten alone as a snack or cut up on salads and such. Like raw garlic they can be pressed and the juice used as a delicious topping for dinner dishes. People who may not care for garlic specifically may take a liking to black garlic.

There are also health properties of black garlic. For one, it has a greater antioxidant power than regular raw garlic. For those fighting the aging process, this is good and tasty news. A compound not found in raw garlic, s-allylcysteine, is produced that lowers bad cholesterol, helps to prevent heart disease and other conditions including cancers.

While both have positive health benefits, the lack of odor and the sweet and pungent taste puts black garlic a little ahead of raw garlic. If you like raw garlic there is no reason to stop eating it. But, if you want to try a new taste, give black garlic a try.

BLACK GARLIC NOODLE RECIPE

black-garlic-noodles

Black Garlic Noodle Recipe
1/2 pound dry noodles or about 2 heaping cups of cooked noodles
about 8 cloves black garlic, sliced thinly
1 tablespoon grapeseed or vegetable oil
1 teaspoon sesame oil
2 teaspoons fish sauce or soy sauce
handful of chopped cilantro or herbs
salt and pepper to taste
1. Have cooked noodles ready in bowl.
2. In heated pan, add grapeseed oil then add sliced black garlic. Allow black garlic to slowly sizzle in oil and slightly crisp up.
3. Immediately add cooked noodles, gently toss in pan with the black garlic.
4. Add sesame oil and fish sauce. Cook noodles for about another 2 minutes.
5. Remove noodles from pan, add chopped cilantro and herbs. Add extra salt and pepper to taste.
**For added moisture to noodles, you can add maybe about 1/4 cup stock, or even a tablespoon of hoisin sauce (diluted in water). We’ll be experimenting with more variations on these black garlic noodles with a light cream sauce. Doesn’t that sound tasty?
