How to make garlic confit in the oven

Everyone wants to know how to make garlic confit in the oven every Friday when I post my Shabbos cooking. It's one of those basics that have become part of Shabbos meals around the globe right along with the classics like chicken soup and fried schnitzel.

Ingredients
  

  • 2-3 oz peeled garlic cloves
  • extra virgin olive oil to cover

  1. Preheat oven to 250F. Start by pouring peeled garlic cloves into a shallow baking dish.
