Synopsis
A zesty paean of praise to the greater glories of garlic, this lip-smacking foray into the history, consumption, cultivation and culinary/curative powers of the stinking rose features chef Alice Waters of Chez Panisse, and a flavorful musical soundtrack. Lovingly photographed, it’s an odyssey of garlic feasts and interviews with afficionados. Promoting garlic as the first line of defense against blandness, it titillates the taste buds with shots of sizzling dishes.
