How to Prepare Homemade Garlic Oil



A superfood with antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects is garlic. It contains antioxidants that can aid in lowering the chance of developing heart disease and a variety of cancers. It is highly nutrient-dense because only one ounce contains trace amounts of iron, calcium, potassium, copper, phosphorus, vitamin B1, selenium, manganese, vitamins C and B6, and vitamin B1.





The best aspect is that it tastes fantastic and transforms a variety of foods. Nearly all of our savory meals include garlic. Only lately did I learn about garlic oil, a great new method to add more flavor to your food while reaping the many health benefits of garlic.




Ingredients to Prepare Homemade Garlic Oil

Anyone can learn how to make garlic oil. It requires minimal tools and ingredients. 

You will need:
  •  a good quality head of garlic
  • 16 ounces or 2 cups of one of your favorite cooking oils (I used olive oil). 
  • The tools you will need are a heavy-bottomed pot or saucepan, a stove, a timer, and a cooking thermometer. 
  • You will also need a sterilized glass container to store it in.

How To Prepare Homemade Garlic Oil


First, divide the head of garlic into separate cloves. 

After that, peel the skin off or lightly crush each clove to loosen the skin and make it a lot easier to peel. However, some of the natural oils will escape if you choose the latter. 

Do not rinse the garlic with water as this will encourage bacteria to infect the cloves. 

Once all have been peeled, transfer them to the pot or saucepan. Then, add the oil and swirl to coat the cloves.


Place the pot or saucepan over the gas range, then set the heat to medium-low. 

Monitor the temperature with the cooking thermometer until it reaches approximately 205°F or 95°C. If you do not have a thermometer, you can keep an eye on the garlic as it sizzles. 

If you notice that the garlic is browning, carefully take the pot or pan off the heat and set aside for about a minute as you slightly reduce the heat.







Maintain the temperature to let the garlic and oil sizzle together without the garlic quickly browning from 15 minutes to half an hour, depending on how strong you want the garlic flavor to be.



Once you have cooked the garlic oil to the desired level, turn off the heat and remove the pieces of garlic using a small metal strainer. After all of the traces of solid garlic have been removed, cover the pot or pan to keep dust from getting into the oil and set aside to cool to room temperature.



Once cooled, transfer the oil into a sterilized glass jar with an airtight lid. Keep the oil on a cool shelf far from direct sunlight and discard excess after 14 days, or once the oil smells rancid.
