Print Recipe

Ingredients

1 quart olive oil .
2 lbs garlic cloves, peeled

Directions

Step #1 Preheat oven to 250°F.
Step #2 place garlic in a deep cassurol dish & cover with oil.
Step #3 Add extra if needed to cover all the garlic.
Step #4 don't use ase much as called for if it wont all fit in your dish.
Step #5 This is not an exact recipe here.
Step #6 The main thing is that all the garlic is covered with oil.
Step #7 Cook in the oven until the garlic is soft & squishy.
Step #8 Remove from oven & let it cool a bit.
Step #9 Remove garlic from the oil & set aside.
Step #10 Let the garlic cool completly in the fridge before you cover it.
Step #11 Pour oil through a coffee filter & into a shallow pan & let it cool in the fridge before you bottle it.
Step #12 Keep refridgerated & use the oil soon.
Step #13 The garlic can be frozen if you want to hold ontoit for awhile, but it will break down when it's thawed.
Step #14 I like to puree it into a smooth past & use it that way.
Step #15 BE ADVISED! SOME LOCAL HEATH DEPARTMENTS CLAIM THAT THERE IS A RISK WHEN MAKING HOMEMADE FLAVORED OILS.
Step #16 To help avoid any risk of illness I suggest that you treat this entire procedure like you are doing home canning.
Step #17 SANITIZE EVERYTHING THAT WILL COME INCONTACT WITH FOOD! I can't stress this enough.
Step #18 Botulism is nothing to mess around with.
Step #19 I have never had a problem with my flavored oils.
Step #20 Always smell them before you use them.
Step #21 If there is any doubt about the quality, TOSS IT! You can't be too careful.
Step #22 Be careful & enjoy.
