Confit Garlic, Easy to follow recipe + Easy salad dressing.
Hi everyone,
Today I am waiting for the builder to get back to us with the final quote and I am a bit impatient to find out the final cost of our negotiations process. As much as I want to build a perfect house, I need to be very mindful of the budget and make sure we have some money left for unforeseeable circumstances. We would love to keep our mortgage as low as possible while not sacrificing to much on our list. It is truly a juggling art and we try to save money as much as we can, especially that we are planning our trip to Poland 😊.
In that spirit I decided to do some confit garlic at home to replicate the one I purchased on the garlic festival. It was a bit pricey for a small jar and if I know how easy it is to make, I would have done it from the start, but it was good to taste it and get an idea how versatile it is. So far, I used it in salad dressings, sauces and marinates. I am sure that it has lot of other uses and please share if you use it in some other way. I am keen on exploring new possibilities 😊.
I used 6 garlic heads and covered in 2 cups of olive oil, then simmer on low heat for 45 minutes. The key is to make them soft and infuse some beautiful garlic oil but be careful not to burn them 😊.
For example, I use it on my garden salad to go with our dinner. To make a dressing combine 4 table spoons of garlic oil with 3 table spoons of red wine vinegar plus 4 cloves of confit garlic and a juice of half a lemon. Mixed it until smooth and drizzle over the salad, finish with salt and pepper to taste.
