So, we grew lots of garlic! Which was very fun and very exciting – but now, what to do with it? If you want a recipe that tastes amazing while making your entire house smell like garlic for a 24-hour period of time, look no further.
In all seriousness, this recipe did stink up my house, but I have found the resulting garlic spread to be very versatile and delicious. Mix this into salad dressings, use it to top hummus, mix in with greens or a batch of pesto, stir into roasted or mashed potatoes, make garlic bread. I even used mine to top a tomato toast last night and it was very good. The possibilities here are endless – anywhere garlic can go, this can go.
I took pictures of the process, so I decided to post this as a picture recipe instead of listing out the instructions. Let me know what you think of this format!
Happy garlic times, everyone!
Peel 40-50 garlic cloves. Place in blender. Top with 1/2 cup olive oil. Blend for 60 seconds, until smooth.
Add blended mixture to a saute pan and cook over very low heat. After about 1 hour, mixture should caramelize and become golden brown. Cool for 30 minutes before packing and enjoying!
