I have a jar of this fantastic concoction in the fridge at all times. I typically make it every couple of weeks and use the oil and the cloves in a variety of things ranging from adding to potatoes I’m mashing (see picture below) to simple crostini with smacked cloves and a drizzle of oil to adding to a tomato sauce for subtle sweet garlic taste.
There’s not an actual recipe, add whole cloves to olive oil in a small pot and cook slowly. Couldn’t be easier!
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups olive oil
Whole garlic cloves, I use about 40 for this quantity of oil, but lower the count for less oil
Directions:
Heat oil on low in a small saucepan, add the garlic and cook for 45 – 60 minutes until the cloves are soft.
Store in a glass container in the fridge for up to 10 days. I use a mason jar.
Enjoy!
Veronique
