Black Garlic. While its easy to get lost in the chemistry, its essentially garlic cooked at about 140° for a number of weeks.

It gives it a very sweet taste of umami. Uses can be ice cream, aoli, toast or bread crumbs, vinaigrettes, sauces, pesto, dehydrate to a powder & etc.
Rose water origin dates back to Persia (& what is now Iran). Has had medical & religious uses but is also culinary staple in Arabic cuisine.

From Rose syrup on K& #39;nafeh,ice cream, Roz Bil Halib(rice pudding) to drinks etc. Maybe im geeking but its fragrance is honestly magical.
