ONION-GARLIC PUREE



Onion-Garlic Puree image

This aromatic puree is designed to be a base ingredient and is a great way to build flavor and texture without adding fat. It eliminates the need to add a lot of butter and cream to Macaroni and Cheese with a Crusty Crunch (page 174), for instance. You can stir it into just about any sauce or soup for a fat-free flavor punch.

Yield makes 1 cup

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 large Vidalia onion, roughly chopped
9 garlic cloves, roughly chopped
1/2 cup water
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Combine the onion, garlic, and water in a microwave-safe bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap, and microwave on high for 10 minutes.
  • Pour the mixture into a blender and blend until it is completely smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste, if desired. Store in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 72 hours.

AIL OU ECHALOTES CONFITS (GARLIC OR SHALLOT CONFIT)



Ail Ou Echalotes Confits (Garlic or Shallot Confit) image

This recipe can be made with garlic or shallots or even pearl onions or a combination thereof. While in Gascogny, rendered duck fat would be used. You can use olive oil, lard (pure lard rendered by farmers who raise organic stock is available more and more)or other oils. The duck fat really is the best and can be re-used if strained and carefully treated. The confit is a wonderful garnish for meat or salad and can be a wonderful addition to sauces.
