I thought the garlic was right on mark; the perfect balance. Enough to taste, but not too much to overpower the shrimp and sauce. I don’t know if it happens with garlic, but it is my understanding that if you always oversalt, your taste buds become accustomed and you no longer taste the saltiness. Same with sugar, people that cut back on sugar will find things too sweet that they didn’t before. Pete, maybe you are habitually using too much garlic that you can’t taste it at the regular recommended amount. And if you want to add more garlic, go for it, season to your own taste; that’s what cooking is for.
