Scale
- 2 bulbs garlic
- 24 ounces high grade Italian Olive Oil
-
2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese
-
2 teaspoons chili powder
-
2 teaspoons red pepper flakes
- 2 teaspoons thyme
-
1 teaspoon fresh cracked black pepper
-
Pinch of flakey sea salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. In tin foil, drizzle each garlic bulb with olive oil and wrap tightly. In a small pan, place in the oven and let roast for about 30 minutes. The bulbs will be golden, slightly sticky when you unwrap them, and the garlic will be soft like butter.
- In a tall 24 ounce glass jar, add the roasted garlic and combine with garlic. Crush the garlic until it is as smooth as you get it. NOTE: Do this while the garlic is still almost too hot to handle.
- While garlic is still warm, quickly grate a nice amount of grating cheese into the garlic, and stir gently until the grating cheese melts into the garlic and oil. Then add in chili powder, black pepper, red pepper flakes, and a small amount of salt. Adjust seasonings to taste.
