What is the edible part of garlic?

The edible part of garlic is the bulb, specifically the cloves.

Here's a breakdown:

* Bulb: The entire structure of garlic, made up of several cloves.

* Cloves: The individual, small, bulb-shaped sections within the larger bulb. These are the parts you typically peel and use for cooking.

While the entire bulb is technically edible, the cloves are the most commonly used and flavorful part.
