Cooking Garlic
Cooking garlic over a high heat and letting it brown will turn the garlic slightly bitter. With some recipes you want that flavor but when you want a soft, sweeter garlic flavor, as in Tomato Sauce or Fettuccini Alfredo, cook the garlic very slowly over a low heat so that it turns a soft white color and then translucent.
