Garlic That Spreads Like Butter

Never heard of garlic confit? Neither had I.

Thanks to Bon Appetit, I was introduced to this delightfully delicious spread. I have and I'm never, ever giving it up. It's easy to make, keeps for two weeks, and is delightfully delicious with just about everything!

I mildly modified one of the Bon Appetit versions: herby garlic confit. So there's is linked in the first mention of their name, and my adjusted version is listed here.

Rosemary & Bay Leaf Garlic Confit:

Preheat oven to 250

Ingredients:

4 heads of garlic, separated but unpeeled

4 bay leaves

2 rosemary sprigs, leaves removed but not chopped

1 1/2 cups olive oil (extra virgin)

Place all ingredients in 9x9 baking dish and cook for 90 minutes.
