Ingredients




1 liter Olive Oil
8 Cloves Garlic

Preparation

1 Place olive oil in a sauce pan over a low heat. 2 Peel and add the whole garlic cloves to oil. 3 Keep the temperature low and adjust the heat so that the garlic cloves create very small bubbles. 4 Leave on heat until the cloves shrink to about half their size and turn dark brown. Be careful to avoid burning the garlic as this will give the oil a bitter flavor. 5 Allow to cool, remove garlic cloves and return to the bottle the oil came in.

About


This oil can be used to add garlic flavor to salad dressings and as a finishing oil that can be drizzled over a variety of dishes. Use extra virgin olive oil for a stronger olive flavor.
