Thinking ahead here... this is the first season in which my wife and I have grown our own garlic (three varieties: Music, Czech Bzenc, and Russian Giant). It's a long way from here to harvest, but I'm already thinking about preserving in case we can't use all of what we grow. I have tasted several varieties of pickled garlic in the past, some with and some without chiles (though I admit a preference for the former). Has anyone gone down this road before and come out with wise advice (other than "Don't")?
