Caramelized Garlic

Slow Cooker Cooking

 

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

1 bulb elephant or 2 bulbs of regular garlic -- intact

olive or vegetable oil

good quality crusty bread -- thickly sliced

 

To prepare the garlic, use a serrated knife to cut off one-fourth of the

top of the bulb, exposing just the tops of the cloves. Place the

garlic, cut side up, in the insert of the slow cooker. Pour in oil to

come about one third of the way up the sides of the garlic bulb. Cover

and cook on high for 4 to 6 hours or until the garlic is very soft when

pierced with the point of a sharp knife. Cool the garlic bulb in the

oil.

 

To serve, place the whole bulb in the center of a rimmed plate. Pour

some of the garlic oil around it. Pass the bread. Squeeze the softened

cloves of garlic onto the bread.

 

NOTE: The fragrant garlic oil can be stored in the refrigerator in a

tightly covered container for 1 month. Use it in salad dressings,

drizzle it over soup, pasta, or grilled vegetables.

NOTES : Every trendy restaurant, at one time or another, has set out

roasted garlic along with slices of crusty bread on which to smear it.

Using the oversized elephant garlic gives a milder flavor, but the

regular variety is just as tasty, if a little more pungent. If you are

only cooking one bulb, it's best to use a small (1 quart) slow cooker.
