Garlic Dipping Oil Recipe

Dipping bread into olive oil never really appealed to me. I know some folks love it, but dipping my bread into oil just didn't do it for me. Until I thought about it. I love olive oil. I love garlic. I love bread. Ahh...why not put the three together? So, I did. Oh my God! It's good. The fresh flavor of raw garlic mingling with delicate olive oil is pleasure on a piece of bread. The measurements below are approximates. To be honest, I never measure the ingredients. I pour olive oil into my measuring cup, squeeze some garlic into the oil, sprinkle with red pepper flakes and let stand. About an hour later, I divide the oil into separate dipping bowls and sprinkle with a generous pinch of kosher salt. (The oil is so good I find myself "double dipping", so my own bowl is a must.) I then cut up whatever gluten-free bread is around and begin dipping. . . . (to read the remainder of this article, please log in below.)
