HERB GARLIC CONFIT
When I heard you can roast garlic in oil to be spreadable, I was instantly sold. When I saw that the process takes on 20 minutes, I fell in love. I’ll be transparent, for the last 5 years I always reach for reacdy made minced garlic. Having to cook all the time it just makes for a seamless process. However, the difference in this roasted garlic versus ready made is just blaring. There is so much more flavor. If your’e trying to get motivated to mince garlic again, you have to make this roasted garlic!
So what is garlic confit?
It’s garlic roasted in olive oil that can be infused with herbs and spices. You can throw it in everything from soups to salad, sandwiches, or simply throw on some bread with a lil salt. Bonus, you can use the infused oil after making it. With zero waste, this recipe is truly a win win!
What’s great about this concept? Everything. It’s quick, easy, affordable, takes only 20 minutes, perfect for any season, can easily be made in bulk, has notes of oregano, you can switch up the herbs, it can be used in anything and everything, thrown on bread or used on a “charcuterie” board, and the flavor of the garlic is just so good!
