Hmm.

If the smell is the taste, my crock pot experiment of chicken and bean soup with excessive garlic still needs something...

What do you put in soup? Other than carrots, that is, because I'm allergic to them.

Have ou ever checked to see if you're allergic to parsnips? If you aren't, they should substitute nicely for carrots.

Also, you could try sweet potatoes, which have the sweetness and oranginess.

(I'm thinking of carrot substitutes becaue I'm thinking along the lines of 'earthy and sweet'.)

Also, try cooking the garlic whole (just peeled) and then mashing it, rather than crushing or chopping it. Very different flavor.

I've never tried parsnips, at least not knowingly. I should do that sometime. If I get all itchy, I'll know.

And I threw in the cloves whole already. I like it better that way.
