FAQs

What does black garlic taste like?

Unlike raw garlic, black garlic is fermented until it becomes sweet, dark, and syrupy. It adds a deep, savory umami and a hint of balsamic sweetness to the pepperoni that balances the spicy pimentón notes.

Can I use this for cold sandwiches?

Absolutely. While it is incredible when heated on a pizza, the complex flavors of the black garlic and red wine are very present even when served cold in a sub or on a cracker.

Is this product “shelf stable”?

No. This is a fresh, deli-style product that must be kept cold. It is shipped with ice packs to ensure it arrives in peak condition.
