Info:
Elephant garlic (Allium ampeloprasum var. ampeloprasum) is a perennial.
It is not a true garlic, but actually a variant of the garden leek.
Tall, solid, flowering stalk and broad, flat leaves much like those of the leek.
Forms a bulb consisting of very large, garlic-like cloves.
The flavor, while not exactly like garlic, is similar to garlic.
Milder than garlic, more palatable to some people than garlic.
Drying for a few months reduces the moisture content, and also bring out a fuller flavor.
