Preparation method
Separate the garlic heads into individual cloves. Leave them in their skins.
Place the cloves in a saucepan and cover with olive oil so that they are completely submerged. Heat the oil to 90 °C over medium heat. Then remove the saucepan from the hob and let the oil and garlic cool completely. Pour everything into a clean, lidded jar.
Chef's tip
Confit garlic will change its texture and lose its strong pungent taste. Squeeze the prepared garlic out of its skin and use it to flavour various dishes. It's great with roasted or grilled meats, in mashed potatoes, squeezed into various sauces, dressings, flavoured butter, etc. The garlic-infused oil has the same uses.
