Garlic Confit is very easy to make and will enhance just about anything you add it to. We've made Garlic Mashed Potatoes, Shepherd's Pie, and added it to Polenta with Stroganoff Sauce. Other great pairings ideas are to add it to pizza, Avocado Toast, Pasta and Garlic Bread!

Ingredients

  • 1 cup garlic peeled and stemmed
  • ¾ cup olive oil extra virgin
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 2-3 thyme sprigs

Instructions

How to make Garlic Confit

  • Combine the garlic, extra virgin olive oil, bay leaf, and thyme. Cook over very low heat until the garlic cloves are a light golden brown. The garlic clove should smash easily when pressed against the bottom of the pan with a spoon. Allow the garlic to cool in the oil, and remove the thyme and bay leaf. Set aside.
  • Garlic confit can kept refirigerated for 7 -10 days. The oil, without the garlic cloves, will last up to a month refrigerated.
