Collection: Potatoes, Onions, Pumpkin & Spices

Garlic is a plant in the Allium (onion) family. It is closely related to onions, shallots, and leeks. Each segment of a garlic bulb is called a clove. There are about 10–20 cloves in a single bulb, give or take. 

Garlic grows in many parts of the world and is a popular ingredient in cooking, due to its strong smell and delicious taste.

However, throughout ancient history, the main use of garlic was for its health and medicinal properties.

Its use was well documented by many major civilizations, including the Egyptians, Babylonians, Greeks, Romans, and Chinese.

Scientists now know that most of garlic’s health benefits are caused by sulfur compounds formed when a garlic clove is chopped, crushed, or chewed.

Perhaps the most well-known compound is allicin. However, allicin is an unstable compound that is only briefly present in fresh garlic after it’s been cut or crushed.

The sulfur compounds from garlic enter your body from the digestive tract. They then travel all over your body, exerting strong biological effects.

The sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas) is an underground tuber.

It’s rich in an antioxidant called beta carotene, which is very effective at raising blood levels of vitamin A, particularly in children.

Sweet potatoes are nutritious, high in fiber, very filling, and delicious. They can be eaten boiled, baked, steamed, or fried.

Sweet potatoes are usually orange but also found in other colors, such as white, red, pink, violet, yellow, and purple.

Sweet potatoes are only distantly related to regular potatoes.

Ginger is among the healthiest (and most delicious) spices on the planet. It belongs to the Zingiberaceae family, and it’s closely related to turmeric, cardamom, and galangal.

The rhizome (underground part of the stem) is the part commonly used as a spice. It’s often called ginger root or, simply, ginger.

Ginger can be used fresh, dried, powdered, or as an oil or juice. It’s a very common ingredient in recipes. 

Small washed potatoes are potatoes that have been cleaned and are ready to cook. They are often used for boiling, baking, roasting, and mashing.
