Purple Garlic & Purslane Cold Salad

Why people make this dish

Many of us love sashimi, buffets and salads — raw, cold foods that, if not handled well, can trigger acute gastroenteritis with vomiting, diarrhoea, cramps and fever (usually settling on its own within a couple of days). Nourilo offers this purple-garlic-and-purslane cold salad as a traditional kitchen remedy, valued for warming the stomach and supporting gut health. Purple-skinned garlic carries more allicin and antioxidants than the white kind, and since most allicin breaks down when cooked, raw garlic is preferred here.
