You can spread the cloves on grilled bread, marinate olives and feta with the garlicky oil, mash cloves into store-bought mayo, or stir into mashed potatoes.

Yield Makes about 2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 3

4 heads of garlic, cloves separated, unpeeled
A small handful of thyme sprigs, rosemary sprigs, and/or bay leaves
1 1/2 cups extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 250°F. Place garlic, herbs, and oil in an 8x8" baking dish or a small saucepan. Cover with foil and bake until garlic is tender, 60-75 minutes. (You'll have to pop one out of its skin to test it; it should be soft and jammy). Let cool.
  • Garlic confit can be made 2 weeks ahead. Transfer to an airtight container and chill. Reheat over low heat before using.
