Part 1 of 2: Caramelizing the Garlic

1. 1 Crush and peel the garlic using the wide side of a knife. Place the wide side of the knife over the tooth and crush it by pressing down on the knife with your hand. Now you can peel the garlic very easily.
2. 2 Remove the root and trunk of the garlic. You may not want to do this as it will not affect the taste, but it is more aesthetically pleasing to serve peeled garlic, especially if you are cooking for guests.
3. 3 Pour olive oil into a skillet and place over medium heat. You can save on olive oil, but the used oil can be used in other dishes. Such oil will have an incredible taste and aroma. (Below you will find tips on how to use garlic olive oil.)
4. 4 Saute the garlic for about 6 to 7 minutes, turning it over and over to prevent it from burning. Adjust the temperature as needed, the garlic should turn golden brown and taste incredibly tasty.
   • Caramelized garlic should be golden brown, slightly crispy on the outside and soft on the inside; the finished garlic should taste sweet.
5. 5 Using a slotted spoon, remove the garlic from the oil and serve. Caramelized garlic is used in many dishes and will only take you 10 minutes to cook.

1. 1 Use caramelized garlic when making pizza.
2. 2 Use caramelized garlic when making pasta. You will get sweet, spicy, and tangy taste at the same time! By adding garlic, you get an incredibly delicious paste.
3. 3 Use garlic in crostini. This is an Italian snack in the form of small toasted pieces of bread.
4. 4 Use caramelized garlic when cooking lamb. Rub a piece of lamb with garlic or place the clove inside. Your dish will acquire a new taste and aroma.
5. 5 Store caramelized garlic in oil in the refrigerator for several weeks. If you don't want to use the garlic right away, you can store the garlic in the same oil you used to make it. Simply pour it into a container or glass jar and store for several weeks.
