After harvesting, carefully wash the bulb and roots. Let the garlic dry in a shady, well-ventilated, moisture-free area for a week or more. You can hang the freshly harvested bulbs from their stalks if you like. Thoroughly drying garlic bulbs develops and concentrates their flavor, so don't rush the process.
