Garlic Flavored Oil
What it is
This is a cooking oil infused with the aromatic essence of garlic. It is made by steeping garlic cloves in a neutral-flavored oil, allowing the garlic's distinct taste and smell to permeate the liquid. The oil is then strained to remove the solids, leaving behind a flavorful cooking medium. It offers a convenient way to add a garlic note to dishes without the need for fresh garlic.
