Note: Last week we talked about how to make a garlic confit with 50 raw garlic cloves. One of our listeners wrote to us with a warning about garlic infused oil and it's link to potentially fatal botulism. Some precautions to take in order to avoid botulism in oil infusions are: - Wash all soil-contaminated produce before adding it to an oil infusion - Add an acidifying agent such as lemon juice or vinegar to the recipe at the rate of one tablespoon per cup of oil - Keep oil infusions refrigerated in order to retard the growth of any microbes - Discard infusions after one week, or sooner if apparent cloudiness, gas bubbles, or foul odor develop - When in doubt, throw it out
