Garlic Olive Oil

Description

Description

This infused olive oil is the perfect example of a versatile culinary oil adding robust and assertive garlic flavor wherever garlic is required. Imagine smelling the aroma of a freshly peeled garlic clove diced into small pieces. Garlic olive oil pairs very well with just about any white balsamic , dark balsamic or fruit vinegar and is the essential finishing oil in many Mediterranean dishes.

• Combine with Apricot , Peach , or Pineapple balsamic for pork or poultry marinade.
• Combine equal parts with Italian Espresso for a flank steak marinade.
• Use for bread dipping.
• Drizzle over your pasta or add as a secret ingredient in a savory red sauce.
• Drizzle over grilled pizza and flatbread.
• Use to finish creamy mashed potatoes.
• Use to toss pasta; it is especially delicious with spaghetti.
• For extra flavor, use this oil instead of plain olive oil for basting when cooking vegetables.
• Use to cook Mexican-style garlic shrimp.

Featured Recipe: Grilled Garlic Bread

DESCRIPTION

Delicious Garlic Bread to accompany your favorite pasta dish.

INGREDIENTS

• 1 loaf Ciabatta bread (or other firm bread), sliced inch to 1/2″ thick
• Olive Basin Garlic Olive Oil – for grilling and also on grilled bread, if desired
• Freshly grated Parmesan-Reggiano Cheese
• Fresh chopped parsley, optional

INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat grill on medium setting. Place a little vegetable oil on a paper towel and using tongs, lightly oil the grate.
Using a pastry brush, brush garlic oil onto both sides of each bread slice. Lay on to oiled grate. Grill 1-2 minutes, depending on your grill, turn and grill 1-2 minutes more on the other side. Each side should have grill marks, however, this happens quickly, so take care not to overcook.
To Serve:
Place each slice on a platter, sprinkle cheese and parsley on to each slice. If desired, additional garlic oil can be drizzled on top.
