Ingredients

Instructions

  • Break garlic bulbs into individual cloves.
  • Peel the garlic cloves. (Do this quickly by putting them in a container with a lid and shaking.)
  • Add cloves to a food processor and pulse until finely chopped.
  • Portion into small containers or freezer trays. I like to lay it flat on plastic wrap.
  • Freeze until ready to use.

Notes

Do not over-process into a paste
Garlic can be used directly from frozen
Serving size is 150 because I get about 15 heads of garlic in a 1 kg bag, with about 10 cloves per head.
