JeffB - Are those miso-fermented garlic cloves just like Black Garlic? I just love Black Garlic! And is the fermenting substance pure miso, or miso mixed with buckwheat or other grain hulls?

TIA,
Nance

I've never had Black Garlic but I'm sure it has a lot in common (taste, nutrition) with miso-fermented garlic (aka 'ninniku miso-zuke'). The miso-zuke I had was just miso and garlic, but I see you could add a little mirin:

The Elizabeth Andoh book "Kansha: Celebrating Japan's Vegan and Vegetarian Traditions" is a great resource for Japanese style veggie ferments, including nuka zuke (rice hulls).
