Step 1

Peel the garlic if you haven’t already. Press the garlic bulb with the back of your palm to break it up, then remove the outer paper. Use your fingers to separate the cloves and peel the paper off it

Step 2

Add the garlic cloves to a blender/food processor, add a little oil and process until puree or paste-like. You can also process it minced if that is how you like it. The whole process should take about 30 seconds to 1 minute depending on the quantity you are making.

Step 3

Season the garlic puree with salt (this is optional by the way especially if you would be storing this in the freezer)

Step 4

Spoon the puree in a cleaned jar and store in the fridge for up to a week. (Do not store longer than this in the fridge to avoid botulism poisoning)
