no, when i have extra garlic i grind it with the meat
grinder, drench it with lemon juice and freeze it in
small containers. when i grew several hundred garlic
bulbs (of many cloves each) and had extra garlic i was
weeding from a garden out back i would have plenty
still left by late winter which would be starting to
sprout (if kept dark and cool it doesn't sprout as
easily). i like the bits of green in it at this
stage.

you could probably use lime, orange or any other acid
like vinegars. probably also sugar or salt.

i've also pickled ground garlic and made relishes or
bbq sauce type bases from it keeps that ways for a few
years at least.

i no longer grow as much garlic and so am not having
to grind and freeze or put up garlic as much.
