I freeze my garlic all the time. If it is in juice it may soften when it thaws out but it is still good.

The garlic should be fine even though it may have softened a bit due to the freezing.

No reason why it shouldn't be OK. As everyone has said, it will be a little softer, but probably also tangier as freezing exaggerates spicy flavours. So less may need to be used, but try it first to see.

I am glad the jar did not burst!
Garlic is so good for you that it would be a shame to not use it but i do think it will have a stronger flavor so I would use sparingly until you check it out.

I freeze everything of any fresh vegetable including chopped onions, celery and garlic. So my answer would be yes, it would be perfectly fine!

I have been freezing garlic for years. I place it in a mason jar, vacuum seal it and then freeze. When ready to use it, I micro plane it and use in the recipe.

HOWEVER, I find the frozen garlic is significantly less potent. If I normally would use four cloves, I use a dozen to 15 frozen cloves.

It will be great in soups and casseroles
