Crispy Garlic Chips Recipes

Steps:

• For the chips: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and place a rack in the center of the oven.
• Place the kale on a sheet pan in an even layer. Sprinkle the lemon zest and granulated garlic over the kale. Drizzle the oil over the top and sprinkle salt and pepper to taste. Bake until crisp, about 20 minutes.
• For the dipping sauce: In a medium bowl, whisk the sour cream, buttermilk, lemon juice, cumin, paprika and some salt and pepper until combined. Serve with the kale chips.

Steps:

• Using a small slicer or a mandoline, slice the garlic very thin.
• Heat the olive oil in a 10-inch cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until very hot. Line a plate with two paper towels. To test the temperature of the oil, add a slice of garlic. If it sizzles, add the rest of the garlic and cook until just crisp and light golden brown, a matter of seconds. Use a flat slotted skimmer to keep the slices from sticking together as they cook, and transfer them to the paper towels to drain the moment they turn color. (The oil can be strained and used for another batch or reserved for another use.)

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a medium skillet over moderate heat. Add garlic slices and saute until lightly browned, about 12 minutes. Drain garlic on paper towels. Sprinkle with salt and serve.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix butter and garlic salt until well blended. Split each pita in half to make two rounds. Spread each with butter mixture. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and basil. Cut each round into six wedges; place on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake at 325° for 8-10 minutes or until crisp.

Steps:

• In wok or cast iron skillet, ( I use my anodized pot with no problem, just be sure it's heavy-bottomed), bring the oil to deep fry temperature, about 350°F
• Add garlic and fry, stirring and tossing, until a golden brown, taking care not to let any of it burn. This only takes 1-2 minutes.
• Remove with slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
• (Do Crispy Shallots in this same oil, then save the flavorful oil for cooking.).
• Cool garlic to room temperature and store in tightly covered container for a week, or a little more. It likely will not last that long!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a large saute' pan, melt butter over medium heat.
• Stir in garlic; cook and stir for 1 minute.
• Add bagel slices, and toss to coat.
• Spread on a baking sheet.
• Bake for 15 minutes, or until crispy and dry.
• Check frequently to prevent burning.
• Cool.
