How to Make Garlic-Parsley Olive Oil Drizzle

1. Heat Garlic in Olive Oil

Start by combining the olive oil and minced garlic in a small skillet. Heating the garlic in the olive oil for about three minutes brings out the aromatic flavors. You'll know it’s ready when the garlic starts to turn a lovely golden color, releasing its savory aroma into the oil.

2. Combine with Parsley

Once the garlic is fragrant and golden, transfer the mixture into a mortar or a small bowl. Add the finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley to the garlic-infused oil and stir everything together until well combined. The parsley not only adds a fresh, vibrant flavor but also a beautiful green color to the drizzle.

Pitfalls and tips

Choose Your Olive Oil Wisely

Opt for a high-quality, extra-virgin olive oil with a flavor profile you enjoy – fruity, peppery, or grassy.

Seasoning

Use good quality sea salt or kosher salt and consider adding freshly ground black pepper for subtle heat.

Freshness Matters

Use fresh, flat-leaf parsley and firm, plump garlic cloves for more nuanced flavors.

Toasting the Garlic

Toast garlic gently in the olive oil over low heat until tender and just beginning to turn golden to add depth and mellow sharpness.

Balance with Acidity

Add a splash of fresh lemon juice or high-quality vinegar to brighten the drizzle.
