GARLIC CONFIT



Garlic Confit image

This is a genius technique in which you slowly cook garlic in oil and herbs. Use it to make Martha's Roasted-Garlic Toast with Tomato, Spaghetti alle Vongole, and Stuffed Artichokes with Capers and Cornichons.

Time 2h20m

Yield Makes about 1/2 cup mashed

Number Of Ingredients 3

3 large or 4 small heads garlic
6 thyme sprigs
Extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 275 degrees. Using a serrated knife, remove the top third of each head. Place garlic, cut-sides down, in a 6-cup loaf pan. Add thyme and enough oil to just cover (about 2 cups). Cover with parchment-lined foil and bake until garlic is soft, 1 hour to 1 hour, 15 minutes. Let cool completely, then transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate up to 2 weeks. (Oil can be strained after a day or two and refrigerated separately.)

Confit is a method that preserves food in oil and was used before the invention of refrigeration. Use the garlic cloves in mashed potatoes, pasta, garlic bread, or as a quick way to season steamed veggies. Look for bulbs that have cloves that are tight and the skin should have a purple hue. I've used thyme but feel free to use your favorite fresh herbs.

Time 2h35m

Yield 20

Number Of Ingredients 3

2 bulbs garlic
¾ cup pure olive oil
2 sprigs fresh thyme

Steps:

  • Cut the tops off the garlic bulbs, place on a clean working surface, and press down firmly with the flat part of a large knife to separate the cloves from the bulb. Remove the skins and discard.
  • Pour oil into a very small pot; add garlic cloves and thyme.
  • Turn heat to medium and cook until bubbles start to form. Lower the heat to the lowest possible setting and cook until garlic is soft but not brown, 20 to 25 minutes, depending on the size of the cloves.
  • Place garlic cloves and oil in an ice cube tray and freeze until firm, 2 to 3 hours. Remove frozen cubes from the tray and store in a freezer bag.
