Did you know that to get the full health benefit of garlic and onions, you have to cut them up and then wait 5 (garlic) or 10 (onions) minutes before using them? That way the health-promoting alliicin can form. Unless you do that, you will miss out on all the beneficial effects. And then cook it, ideally, for no longer than 15 minutes.
