There are few smells as universally intoxicating as the smell of roasting garlic<\/a>. Thankfully for the cooks out there, there doesn't have to be a fancy multi-course meal in the works to bring about this particularly delicious smell. In fact, this slow cooked garlic is so delicious that people are swarming the internet to learn how to make it! Read on for a simple process and all the hints you need to make delicious garlic confit at home.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

What Is Garlic Confit?<\/h2>\r\n

Confit<\/em> is a French cooking technique where you cook or preserve something in its own fat, like the classic duck confit. But vegetables can also be confited, cooked low and slow in plenty of oil. Garlic confit requires only a few minutes of active work, then the garlic and oil will work their magic in a warm oven.<\/p>\r\n

In the end, you'll have plump cloves of slow cooked garlic in a tasty garlic-infused oil to use in dressings, cook with or drizzle on some nice bread.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

How to Make Garlic Confit<\/h2>\r\n\"Toh\r\n

To make garlic confit, you only need 2 ingredients, plus whatever additional seasonings you'd like. It's a great dish to make if you have an excess of garlic hanging out in your kitchen, especially if it's starting to turn into sprouted garlic<\/a>! I recommend olive oil<\/a> for this method. It has a much lower smoke point than other cooking oils<\/a>, but that's not an issue because this is roasted at such a low temperature.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
