Guest guest Posted June 9, 2005 Report Share Posted June 9, 2005 This is the recipe I mentioned a few months ago. Finally fell out of an old cookbook. Now I better make it again, we sure love garlic in my family. This is a very attractive platter and the garlic isn't strong once it's marinated. It's very good for you also. " Marinated Blanched Garlic " 1/2 cup canola oil 3 Tblsp. white wine vinegar or your favorite seasoned vinegar 1 Tblsp. Dijon mustard 1 diced serrano pepper (jalapeno will work too) 1 cup blanched garlic. chopped parsley or cilantro Break garlic apart into cloves. Drop cloves, unpeeled into rapidly boiling water to cover. Boil without lid, until cloves are tender when pierced, about 3 minutes but up to 10 minutes if the cloves are large and thick. Pour into colaner to drain. When cool to touch pinch tips on cloves between thumb and forefingers and squeeze garlic clove out of its skin now set bowl of garlic aside. In a 2 cup jar blend together oil, vinegar, mustard, diced hot pepper and parsley or cilantro. Stir in the blanched garlic. Refrigerate for several hours. When ready to serve line a platter with lettuce leaves, then arrange tomato slices over lettuce leaves. Spoon marinated blanched garlic over tomatoes, making sure to cover tomatoes with dressing.
