Pickling tones down the flavour of garlic however, it is a delicious ingredient to add to a number of dishes, like salads, stir-frys and of course hummus. Dehydrate It! Use a food dehydrator. Just peel the cloves and cut the garlic into nice thin slices. Place the slices in your dehydrator and cook them until crisp. Alternatively you can use an oven. Just place some baking paper on a tray, place the slices on top and cook it in for about 30 minutes at 45°C. Store the garlic in an airtight container at room temperature for several months.
