Ingredients:
3 heads garlic, broken into cloves, ends trimmed, peeled
1 cupextra-virgin olive oil
Directions:
Combine the garlic cloves and olive oil in a small saucepan over medium-low heat and bring to a gentle simmer. Lower the heat, likely all the way, to maintain a gentle simmer, like bubbling seltzer, for 45 minutes to 1½ hours, until the cloves are very tender and golden brown. Transfer to an airtight glass jar, making sure the cloves are submerged in the oil, and refrigerate for up to 2 weeks. Or freeze in an airtight freezer-safe container for up to 3 months.
