It’s a good idea to always have a batch of this in the fridge as it transforms a meal into something really delicious. Serve with pasta, quinoa, salad, chicken, meat or have a spoonful with some grilled fish. Simply delicious.
One of the main ingredients, garlic, has been used for medicinal purposes for centuries and it’s the compound allicin that has therapeutic effects. You will benefit the most by eating garlic in its raw form because cooking garlic can deactivate the allicin (which is not to say that cooked garlic isn’t good for you as well). So, this recipe is a real winner!

6 large garlic cloves, crushed
4 tbsp capers, chopped
