3 garlic cloves means you take a head (bulb) of fresh garlic and take off three of the pieces (cloves) and peel them, then follow the recipe instructions. You will find the heads of fresh garlic in the produce section of the grocery store. You can also buy garlic that is already peeled, but it loses flavor over time. Whole cloves are actually a totally different spice. You will find them in the section of the store where all the spices are, in a little spice jar.
If youâre creating a long document full of bulleted lists, be consistent and decide at the start to end each item with, or without, a period. Within a grouping, always use all periods or no periods. Try not to alternate throughout the document.
Length of taper period. The type and distance of a race plays a role in the design of your taper. Generally speaking, longer races will require longer taper periods. For example, the taper for a full Ironman may be as long as 2-3 weeks, while the taper for a sprint triathlon may be 3-5 days. Likewise, tapering for a marathon requires a longer period than tapering for a 5k. Additionally, the sport will dictate the length of the taper.
