Como fazer Kittencal's Do Ahead Garlic

Separate 30 large heads of garlic into individual cloves.
Peel the skin off each garlic clove. (Tip: Soaking the heads in warm water for 10 minutes makes this step easier)
Add the peeled cloves to a food processor and pulse until finely minced.
Transfer the minced garlic to a medium glass bowl.
Add 6 tablespoons of olive oil (or enough to coat the garlic and prevent sticking).
Stir until the garlic and oil are thoroughly combined.
Spoon the garlic mixture into an ice cube tray, filling each compartment evenly. Press down gently to compact.
Freeze for at least 4 hours, or until solid. Once frozen, pop the garlic cubes out of the tray and store them in a freezer-safe bag for up to 3 months.
