Directions
-
Peeled 1 c Extra virgin olive oil 1/2 c Fresh lemon juice (or Balsamic vinegar) 1/2 ts Salt 1 ts Freshly ground or cracked Black pepper 1 tb Herbs (oregano is nice, or Create your own mixture) Start by peeling all that garlic.
-
Now bring a saucepan of water to boil.
-
Once the water is boiling, turn off heat and drop garlic cloves into hot water.
-
Let sit in water for 3 to 5 minutes.
-
(Use the shorter time if you like a sharper raw garlic flavor; the longer time results in a much milder garlic flavor.)
-
Remove garlic and plunge into (or rinse thoroughly with) cold water to stop the cloves from "cooking" any further.
-
Dissolve the salt into the lemon juice.
-
Now make a "viniagrette" with the olive oil, lemon juice/salt, pepper and herbs.
-
Place garlic into jars and pour oil mixture to top the cloves.
-
Refrigerate for a minimum of 1 week.
-
After one week, eat straight (or, for the faint of heart,
-
slice up garlic and
-
mix with your salad greens).
-
Be sure to keep refrigerated.
-
I don't know how long this will last in the refrigerator because I eat it up too fast.
