Next time you buy the huge bag of USA garlic from Sam's you should try make this. Cleta gave us a jar and it was gooood.
Here's Cleta's recipe:
Blanch garlic in boiling water for 2 minutes. Put into ice water to stop the cooking.
Boil 1/2 cup each of shoyu and water, 1/4 cup each of sugar and white vinegar* until sugar dissolves. Let this cool completely then pour over the garlic to cover completely leaving about 1 inch of air space. Put a piece of plastic over the top to seal off the air and cover.
1 week later, pour all the sauce into a saucepan and bring to a boil for 1 – 2 minutes. Cool completely then pour back into the jar of garlic. This is to kill off any bacteria. Wait about 2 weeks before eating.
The garlic could be splotchy but it’s okay to eat. It could have a bluish tinge but it’s okay to eat. The blue is due to the extreme acidic condition and also because garlic contains blue pigments
* Can also use rice vinegar.

Ono and healthy! I like the garlic from Sam's Club. Bigger and cleaner. I use them to make black garlic - which reminds me - I need to eat more of it. Garlic is SO good for us!
sounds easy & ono
Mmm, I need to try this!
Izsmom, it's ono, mild, not harsh.
Aunty, I like their garlic too, especially 'cause it's USA.
Kat, easier than I thought would be.
Susan, me too!
I just saw a bag of this at Sam's and wondered what anybody would do with such a huge bag. This is quite intriguing.
Kay, you should try make. Landon really likes it. It's a lot milder than I expected.
