Black Garlic

I never expected to get a call from my friend at Finlandia but here it came and with it was 2 days of pretty food shots. Some were icon in-sets like the one above but others were for the website. I chose to show this one because I have been shooting food for many years but this is the first time I have seen Black Garlic. The pieces of garlic look like charcoal but they seem to work wonders in recipes or as in the case here, mixed into a soft cheese. I guess there is always something new to learn...
