Always more with garlic. Calls for “2-3 cloves” means at least half bulb. On spice, I’ll hold off if I’m cooking for others that can’t deal and just leave that on the side when serving.
I’ve put double the garlic a recipe called for before and it was still not enough. Who the hell are these people writing recipes for? Vampires? Or do recipe writers live in some place that has really strong garlic??
Unless the recipe calls for an absolutely egregious amount of garlic, I sometimes triple or even quadruple the garlic the recipe calls for. One clove is barely perceptible to me now.
Ingredients I always ignore the amount given in recipes:
Garlic, lime juice, cinnamon, cayenne pepper, chocolate chips, raisins. There’s probably more.

It is technically possible to use too much garlic, but at that point you’re concerned about the amount of money being used to season a single item.

I honestly think that a lot of recipes are written for people who just don’t like things that have a lot of flavor
Yeah I think the right amount is either zero or a lot. There’s nothing I want a little bit of garlic in.
Oh I’m compassionate on hot spices, but if it’s just for me? GAME ON, LET’S SWEAT
Always double the garlic, at least.

That was 2 bulbs of garlic right?
