Instructions
- Peel the garlic. To do this, place a few cloves of garlic inside of a sealed jar and shake it vigorously. This way, the skins will become loose and easy to remove. Repeat with the rest of the garlic.
- Place garlic inside of a large saucepan and cover it in the olive oil. Add the peppercorns, chilli flakes, rosemary and bay leaves.
- Bring the oil to a light simmer, then turn down the heat as low as possible. It’s very important for the heat to not be too high - the oil shouldn’t be bubbling. Allow to cook for 30-45 minutes, until the garlic is soft but not completely falling apart.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat and allow it to cool down fully. You can place it in a cold water bath to speed up this process. Then, use a slotted spoon to transfer the garlic to a jar. Finally, pour in the oil, seal, and store in the fridge.
Notes
- How to store garlic confit
- After making the garlic confit, store it immediately in the refrigerator once it cools down. It is generally advised that the confit is consumed within 2 weeks.
