Ingredients:  
2-3 large bulbs garlic (peeled)
1-2 cups olive oil
Directions:
Directions:
Put the peeled garlic in a small pot. Add enough oil to completely cover the garlic. Set the pot over low to medium-low heat and bring to a simmer. The oil should remain at around 210°F (no higher than 220°F), hot enough so that the oil bubbles gently. If the oil gets too hot and the garlic appears to be frying or browning, remove the pot from the heat for 1 or 2 min.
The garlic will turn almost fully translucent as it cooks. After about 35 minutes of total cooking time, some of the translucency will begin to recede to a dull, opaque color and the cloves will be soft enough to easily split with a spoon. Remove the pot from the heat and let cool.
Transfer the cloves and oil into separate airtight containers. Store each in the refrigerator for up to a week. The garlic flavor really mellows out when cooked. It's delicious as a spread on toast topped with grated parm, or goat cheese.
