You don't need to, but I like how they steam and roast right in the bread which mellows out the flavor substantially and creates a mushy garlicky surprise.<br />;-)<br /><br />if you chop them up, the flavor is all there, but you don't get the differentiation with the texture.<br /><br />I hope this helps a bit!!<br />stephStephanie ODeahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08618710485017373256noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5090591139439935093.post-74718802734567542632015-07-01T15:00:42.760-07:002015-07-01T15:00:42.760-07:00Recipe sounds delicious, but I do have one questio...Recipe sounds delicious, but I do have one question before I try it: why do you leave the garlic cloves whole?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5090591139439935093.post-46477526192542666482013-07-19T09:44:29.143-07:002013-07-19T09:44:29.143-07:00Did anyone figure out the separation issue and yie...Did anyone figure out the separation issue and yield good results?<br />carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11757446462068595081noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5090591139439935093.post-67785424306585383012011-07-19T06:10:29.090-07:002011-07-19T06:10:29.090-07:00Mine turned out fine but cooked very quickly.

I doubled the dry ingredients but not the wet ingredients. I used 2 cups of coconut milk (thinking that the higher fat content would be less likely to curdle or separate) and only 4 eggs (I thought 8 was way too many to put in the small amountNancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05333617577413121561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5090591139439935093.post-91612235497945109912011-01-29T07:14:46.475-08:002011-01-29T07:14:46.475-08:00This was super easy and delish!

The garlic infused the rest of the spoonbread with a gentle and lovely garlic flavor. I was glad for that because I was worried about it being too sweet, which wasn't a problem. I served it as a side dish with chili, but I ate it first because I didn't want the chili flavors MadisonHomeCookernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5090591139439935093.post-696912155428167422010-10-31T14:01:44.672-07:002010-10-31T14:01:44.672-07:00When I mixed everything together, I could definite...When I mixed everything together, I could definitely see the split that everyone has been talking about.

My daughter and hubs wouldn't touch it but I had a go at the cornmeal bit and it was fairly nice.
