[Justin218]

Anyone have a good recipe to make garlic sauce? For like shrimp or something.

just warm some garlic in a pan with butter (or olive oil) over a low/med heat my friend. Make sure not to let the garlic brown or it will get bitter.

you gotta try this out

get a head of garlic - shave the top off so you just see the top of each clove
pour a little olive oil over the top of the head, wrap in aluminum foil, stick it the toaster oven or regular oven for 45 minutes at 350 degrees (you have made roasted garlic - garlic nectar!)

take olive oil and balsamic vinegar (equal parts, such as quarter cup oil, quarter cup vinegar) add as much of the roasted garlic as you want (more garlic more flavor, start with one or two cloves for the amount i speciified) - work your way up to the whole head of roasted garlic if you want, whisk throughly to make a creamy vinagrette that will not separate! it will keep nicely in the fridge for up to a week. goes great on everything - salads, fish, shrimp, sandwiches - if you love garlic - you'll start drinking this stuff its that good. the key is to use good olive oil, and good balsamic vinegar.

Ummm, two of my favorite things: roasted garlic, balsamic vinegar.

heartsurgeon, is that something that would freeze well if made in quantity?

I've tried the roasted garlic thing (saw it on Emerald I think) and its good 🙂

I'll have to try the vinagrette you posted.

Not likely. It will probably separate at colder temperatures. The oil will solidify into grease, and the vinegar will freeze. Kinda messy, however, it should thaw out OK.

Just grate raw garlic over the whole thing. Good stuff 😀
