Three ingredients but infinite possibilities. Keep this mellow garlic condiment on hand and add a spoonful to soups, sandwiches, or pretty much anything.

    Bring green garlic, oil, and a pinch of salt to a bare simmer in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook, reducing heat if needed, until garlic is soft, 40–45 minutes. Let cool slightly. Taste confit and add some more salt if you’d like.
