How to Make Garlic Oil And Roasted Garlic Cloves

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a small oven-safe bowl, toss 1 whole head of garlic (about 12-16 cloves), 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper together.
  3. Drizzle remaining 1/4 cup olive oil over the garlic. Cover the bowl with aluminum foil.
  4. Roast for 35-40 minutes, or until the garlic is soft and golden brown.
  5. Remove from oven and let cool slightly. Once cool enough to handle, gently squeeze the roasted garlic cloves out of their skins.
  6. Strain the garlic-infused oil through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a clean jar or container. Discard the solids.
  7. Store the roasted garlic cloves and infused oil in airtight containers in the refrigerator. The oil will keep for about a week, and the cloves for up to 3 days.
