Warning: I tried the 'freeze your garlic' hack last month and got a weird bitter taste instead of fresh flavor
I chopped a whole head just like the video said, froze the cloves in a bag, but when I threw them into my sauce they turned brown and tasted almost chemical - anyone else have this issue or did I just do it wrong?

Oh man, yeah that bitter chemical taste is classic freezer burn. You gotta wrap those cloves tight in plastic wrap first, then put them in a freezer bag and squeeze all the air out. Also, don't chop them before freezing - freeze whole cloves and grate them straight from frozen into your dish. That way they don't oxidize and turn brown on you.
