Soft-necked garlic is strong flavored and stores well because it has several protective outer layers of papery skin.
Hard-necked garlic is mild tasting and best used soon after harvest since it has only a few layers of papery skin and thus keeps poorly.

Cut garlic—raw or cooked—will be pungent and hot.
Minced or crushed raw garlic will be the most boldly potent of all.
