Have you ever tried baking an entire clove? I've heard they put out quite an odor but taste great!
Yes the whole bulb. Cut off the top and bottom. A little olive oil. Love roasted garlic, spread it on toast.

If you think about it, those shoots under the snow aren't doing much now. Just get them in the ground as soon as you can and see what happens!
Very true, however fall planted garlic may send out both roots and tops and come spring, it is off and growing very early. At the vary least the fall planted garlic will have developed a nice root system over winter and have a big jump on spring planted garlic. For spring planting, the earlier the better for sure. It is worth a try. You will get something.
