Slow-Cooked Garlic Confit
"Confit" is food that has been preserved in fat, and when this method is applied to garlic cloves, the flavor becomes concentrated, it brings out the natural sweetness, and tames the strong bite. Add to soups, stews, vinaigrette, mashed potatoes, spread on crostini, or eat on its own!
