ROASTED GARLIC WITH HERBS AND OLIVE OIL
This is a wonderful healthy, tasty spread or sauce depending on how much olive oil you use. You can even use it as a rub placing under the skin of a chicken or turkey. Fresh herbs are of your choice. Spread on bread or toss into pasta adding pasta water and additional olive oil to loosen. I use a mortar and pestle or Molcajete y Tejolote [mohl-kah-HEH-teh ee teh-hoh-LOH-teh in which the grinding process releases the oils, and flavor essence of the ingredients. When done carefully you will produce a product that is more flavorful than a product prepared in a food processor. If you just need to "get the job done", do it in a mini food processor.

Provided by Shannon Hinkle

Time 30m

Steps:
- 1. Turn oven to 425 degrees and let preheat. Prepare your corn ears and clean them up. Get out a cookie sheet and your foil.
- 2. Mix together olive oil, garlic, and butter if you wish, in a bowl. Add in pepper, as much as you like.
- 3. Set an ear of corn on a piece of foil on the cookie sheet. Rub the corn with the mixture and roll corn around to get it well coated. Wrap up in foil.
- 4. When all corn is wrapped up, stick it in the oven for at least 15 mins. If you like it a little more roasted, go for 20 mins. I always do 15 and it comes out great.
Tips:
- Choose the right garlic: For the best flavor, use fresh, firm garlic bulbs with no signs of sprouting or bruising.
- Roast the garlic properly: Roasting the garlic brings out its natural sweetness and mellows its flavor. Roast the garlic until it is soft and golden brown, but not burnt.
- Use a good quality olive oil: The quality of the olive oil you use will make a big difference in the flavor of the roasted garlic oil. Use a flavorful, extra virgin olive oil.
- Let the roasted garlic oil cool completely before storing: This will help to prevent the oil from becoming rancid.
- Store the roasted garlic oil in a cool, dark place: Roasted garlic oil can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks, or in the freezer for up to 6 months.
Conclusion:
Roasted garlic oil is a versatile condiment that can be used in a variety of dishes, from pasta to pizza to grilled vegetables. It is also a great way to add flavor to salad dressings, marinades, and dips. With its rich, savory flavor and health benefits, roasted garlic oil is a delicious and healthy addition to any kitchen.
