Garlic chips
….I make some garlic chips once a year and keep them frozen. They are used as a garnish for cooking. It’s a good time to get new harvest garlic around July. After drying some moisture, you can make this between August and September. It requires some effort. It smells and it isn’t easy but this is much more delicious made at home. This recipe is from @booth108kwon.
Time: 1 hr 30 minutes plus 24 hr soaking time in water
Ingredients:
- 4 cup avocado oil
- 8 cup garlic cloves
Cooking Instructions:
- Peel the garlic and clean.
2. Slice the garlic thinly with slicer.
3. Soak the sliced garlic into water for 24 hours(the process of removing starch and garlic extract from garlic). Change the water several times.
4. After 24 hours, drain the water and dry the garlic in paper towels.
5. Pour the avocado oil into a pan with medium low heat. Before the oil gets too hot, add the garlic into the pan(start frying from cold oil, in order to take out the moisture and fry until it’s very crispy)about 20–30 minutes. Fry the remaining garlic in the same process. Shake them with chopsticks a few times.
6. After taking out the moisture, it will fry very fast. The garlic can be fried too much so take it out when it’s lighter than the color you want.
7. Cool down and keep frozen.
8. The avocado oil left in the pan can be used as garlic oil for other foods, so store in a refrigerator.
