There are lots of recipes now for ‘refrigerator’ type pickled garlic, which use the least heat possible in processing in order to retain the most of the raw benefits:

Excellent idea! I once tried some pickled garlic that was absolutely amazing! I could’ve eaten the whole jar. The guy who made it had ambitions of marketing it, so he wouldn’t give me the recipe despite my begging. Refrigerator pickled garlic would be awesome to have on hand when colds and flu are going around. I also like the idea that was posted about wrapping the minced garlic in some rice paper. The garlic I grow is very strong, so it can be quite challenging to chew up and swallow a raw clove.
