Roasted Garlic and Roasted Garlic Oil

Roasted garlic adds a rich dimension to so many different dishes—and it's super easy to prepare. I usually roast about 2 heads of garlic at a time, but this recipe is easily halved.

Ingredients

2 cups grapeseed oil
20 garlic cloves (about 2 heads), peeled
  1. In a large saucepan, heat the oil over low heat. Once the oil begins to shimmer (be careful not to let it boil), add the garlic cloves. Cook the garlic uncovered for 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until the cloves are easily mashed with a fork. Store the cooled oil and garlic cloves in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

  • It sounds easy enough however, I have never tried "roasting" it in a "frying" pan.
