The following is taken from "The Complete Garlic Lovers' Cookbook," and it is incredible!

Spaghettaccini Carolini

1 lb. spaghetti noodles
4 Tbs olive oil
1/4 lb butter
24 cloves fresh garlic, peeled and chopped
1 lb. fresh jumbo shrimp, peeled and butterflied
1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
1 bunch broccoli, cut into serving size spears
2 C fresh chopped mushrooms
1 C chopped fresh parsley
1 C chopped green onions
1 Tbs dried red pepper
2 Tbs flour
1/2 C dry white wine
1 pint heavy cream
1 small wedge (3-4 oz)of quality Parmesan cheese, grated
Salt to taste

Cook noodles according to package directions with 2 Tbs olive oil. Meanwhile, melt butter in large skillet over medium high heat. Add chopped garlic and shrimp, cook until pink (do not burn garlic!). Set aside. In another skillet, stir fry red bell pepper and broccoli in remaining 2 Tbs olive oil until crisp. Drain and set aside. Add mushrooms, half the parsley, onions and red pepper to the garlic and shrimp and saute for about 1 minute. Add flour, mix thoroughly, and add wine. Simmer for about 30 seconds, then add cream and heat through, stirring. Drain noodles and add to sauce with half the grated cheese. Toss gently until the noodles are well coated and cheese is melted. Salt lightly. If sauce is too thin, continue heating until it reduces to a creamy consistency. If it is too thick, add some more cream. Gently toss in the stir fried veggies and garnish with the remaining chopped parsley and grated cheese. Serve immediately. Makes about 8 servings.

It sounds real tasty, I'll try it this weekend when I have the extra time to process all that garlic!

Easy way to "shell" the garlic is to separate the cloves and drop them in boiling water for a few seconds. Then you can pop them out pretty quickly.

I usually just smash them with the flat of my knife , hitting it with my palm,but I'll try the boiling water trick.
