Hi I am going to make this recipe tonight because it sounds so good! Any ways i was wondering what you mean by 5 to taste garlic. What does that mean. Thank you for your recipe !

The recipe does not contain that phrase - it just lists garlic and you would use as much garlic as you like. A couple of cloves at least, I would think, minced.

Garlic is listed as an ingredient in that recipe, I don't see where it says how many cloves to use. "To taste" means to your liking. If you like a lot of garlic in your food, then use a lot in the recipe (to your taste). If you don't like garlic, then use very little or leave it out.
I am clueless about the "5" because I didn't see that in the ingredients or the directions.

I took a couple of looks at the recipe you cited, and I'm afraid I don't understand what your question is. Could you clarify?
