Stovetop Garlic Confit

Step 1

Add the garlic and olive oil to a small saucepan (add additional olive oil if the garlic is not fully covered). Heat the pan on medium heat until simmering, reduce to low and simmer for 30-40 minutes, or until the garlic is very soft. If the oil begins to boil, reduce heat even more.

Step 2

Allow the garlic confit to cool before transferring to an airtight container and storing in the refrigerator.
