Discover the innumerable applications of garlic oil and you will never look back! This oil is imbued with garlic flavors, but has fewer fructans (which is the scientific term for the component that makes it hard to digest and often inedible for people with sensitivity) and so provides a fantastic way to get fragrant garlic flavors without many consequences. This recipe really shines when you want subtle notes as opposed to all-out flavor bombs.
