Fried Garlic Recipes

Steps:

• Separate bulbs and peel garlic.
• Drop cloves into boiling water and when boiling resumes, blanch for about 3-4 minutes. The longer the cloves cook the milder their flavor, but don't overcook or they will be mushy.
• Drain and pour cold water over to cool.
• Meanwhile, prepare batter by combining biscuit mix, egg, beer, parsley and salt.
• Heat vegetable oil in deep pot or fry cooker.
• Dip each cooked clove of garlic into batter and fry until golden brown in color.
• Remove from oil and drain on paper towel.
• Serve Hot.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 250F. Line a baking sheet with paper towels.
• In a food processor, pulse the garlic until finely minced.
• Fill a medium-width, deep-sided pot halfway with water and bring to a boil, then turn off the heat. Fill a large bowl with ice water. Transfer the garlic to a sieve and submerge in the hot water, blanching for about 2 minutes. Remove and dunk the garlic in the ice water until cooled, then drain well and spread evenly onto the lined baking sheet. Bake until the garlic is dry to the touch, 12 to 15 minutes.
• While the garlic is drying, empty out the pot and dry well. Fill the pot with at least 2 inches of oil, making sure to leave a few inches of clearance from the top of the pot. Heat the oil over medium-high until it reaches 350F (use a thermometer).
• Have the baking sheet lined with paper towels at the ready. Add the garlic and fry until the bubbles begin to subside and the garlic turns golden and rises to the surface, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer the fried garlic back to the paper towels and let cool completely. Season generously with salt, then transfer to a sealable container and store in a cool, dry place for up to 3 weeks. Reserve the garlic-flavored frying oil for future use.

Steps:

• Melt butter in a skillet over medium-high heat.
• Stir in the olive oil, salt and pepper.
• Cook garlic in butter for a minute, but do not brown.
• Add asparagus, and cook for 10-12 minutes, turning asparagus to ensure even cooking.

Steps:

• Prepare french fries according to package directions (bake or fry, your choice!).
• Combine remaining ingredients in a small bowl.
• Pour cooked french fries in a large bowl and pour garlic mixture over. Toss well; add additional salt if desired, and serve!

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Loosen the noodles and add to the pot. When the water returns to a boil, the noodles should be nearly done (2 to 3 minutes; or follow the package directions). Check the noodles by taste or touch. They should be tender but springy. Drain thoroughly.
• In a wok or skillet, heat 3 tablespoons of the garlic oil over high heat until shimmering-hot. Add the raw garlic, stir-frying until fragrant but not browned, a few seconds. Add the noodles and toss to coat. Add the shoyu, oyster sauce, and dashi powder and continue to stir-fry for another minute or two until the sauce is absorbed.
• Remove the pan from the heat and transfer the noodles to a serving plate or individual bowls. Reheat the fried garlic in the microwave until crispy, 10 to 15 seconds, keeping an eye (and a nose) on it so it doesn't burn.
• Garnish the noodles with scallions and fried garlic before serving. Top with sambal if desired.

Steps:

• In wok or cast iron skillet, ( I use my anodized pot with no problem, just be sure it's heavy-bottomed), bring the oil to deep fry temperature, about 350°F
• Add garlic and fry, stirring and tossing, until a golden brown, taking care not to let any of it burn. This only takes 1-2 minutes.
• Remove with slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
• (Do Crispy Shallots in this same oil, then save the flavorful oil for cooking.).
• Cool garlic to room temperature and store in tightly covered container for a week, or a little more. It likely will not last that long!

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook for 8 to 10 minutes or until al dente; drain.
• Heat olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat until a piece of garlic dropped into the oil slowly bubbles. Add the garlic, and cook and stir until golden brown, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove garlic from the oil with a slotted spoon and set aside; reserve oil.
• To serve, place the pasta onto individual serving dishes and sprinkle with fried garlic. Drizzle with a little of the frying oil and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Reserve remaining garlic-flavored oil for another use.
